My dad raised some cows and my sister named them. I put a little flag in a burger from the one he butchered with its name on it and sent a pic to her.

I no longer comment on animal shit ever since I was riding in the car with my Dad to his families home in the country.
I said eww, it smells like cow shit out here.
He said dammit boy, that's pig shit. Don't you know anything?

The best way to describe the difference is. Cow shit is when the men's room door is left hanging open and pig shit is when the women's room door is left hanging open.

For long-haul trucker Bobby Anderson, the weight-loss journey was particularly hard.
After 21 years on the job – spending 14 hours a day, six days a week behind the wheel – the Mississippi veteran’s sedentary lifestyle and poor eating habits took a toll on his waistline.
“I used to want to look like Arnold Schwarzenegger. And I ended up looking like Chris Farley,” Anderson told Today.
But last year the 45-year-old swapped fast food (ever-present at truck stops) for a vegan diet. It helped him shed 65 lbs. “My belly used to be right up here on the steering wheel. And now, I have room to breathe. And it’s still going down,” said Anderson.
So, how does he maintain his new size? It’s actually a foodie adventure! After cutting out Southern food staples (goodbye BBQ and hush puppies!), Anderson gave up meat, fish and dairy and starting eating more nutritious fruits and vegetables like avocados, blueberries and the occasional potato.
And that was just the beginning. Once Anderson started actually cooking plant-based foods for himself, his physical appearance changed even more dramatically. These days he uses the truck’s electrical power for a pressure cooker, waffle maker, hot plate, toaster and Nutribullet. “It’s very exciting and every day is a different flavor,” said Anderson about his meals, which include dishes like vegetable stir-fry with peanut sauce and healthy salads. “It takes all day to get ready to do this stuff, but it’s well worth it.”
In addition to improving his overall health — “I don’t take no antidepressants, anymore. No blood, no medicine at all and it’s all doctor approved,” Anderson said — his new eating habits also inspired him to start exercising and help others. He now chronicles his progress on Instagram and Facebook under the name Plant-Fueled Trucker. He has over 2,700 Instagram followers and 17,000 Facebook likes. For Anderson’s recipes, click here:

You would bring that up.
Well, he did not say 14 hours a day each and every day.
To me he was just stressing some days can be that long and that he also puts in 6 day's
Sometimes.
He's not trying to explain his logging ELD compliance here so he's not necessarily trying to be exact in the way he tells us this.
Heck I put in 12+ hours yesterday, this happens about only about 4-5 times a month but if someone ask me I will tell them....
"I put in 5 days a week 12+ hours a day"

You should write a how-to book. It could be the next fad diet.

Sorry to hear that ITD. But glad your putting a positive spin on it.
My mom who was very overweight had a intestinal blockage so they had to remove a large part of her intestines. And she had to wear a stoma bag for a while. Her weight subsequently dropped to very acceptable levels. She's in her 80s and still gets around ok which would have been much harder if she still had all that weigh.

I have one that is almost twin to that. Made in the early 50's. Removable waffle grids to create a two-sided frying pan. Not even a grounding lug on the plug!

Whew! Bet you're relieved about that.
Hope everything goes well with the stomach surgery. Keep up that positive attitude.
