What is the best way to maintain your diet while on the road?

[hrod3866]

I am concerned that my drivers aren't eating healthy. Any suggestions on how they can stick with a healthy diet while driving 8 hours per day?

instead of salty snacks or high calorie ones, try granola bars, peanut butter crackers, diet sodas, or fruit juices, water. if they eat at truck stops, hit the salad bar, and order foods either baked or broiled, stay away from all you can eat buffets, and maybe park far enough from the building that they have to walk a few minutes to get inside.

but "all your drivers", frankly no matter how many you have, you cannot force them to live thier life, your way.

driving your truck is one thing, personal habits are another.....

Go talk to a dietician at a clinic that works with employers. It's not just the diet. It's also exercising as well.

Pack A healthy lunch, I'm an OTR driver and I work six days a week, I pack enough healthy food to last me until Saturday,lost 30 pounds already.

Yep pre pack veggies and fruit and healthy sandwiches. I feel for you guys, pretty tough to keep a good diet as we can't eat salad with a fork while driving.

How else do you eat a salad? Of course you use a fork

• Eat plenty of protein.
• Pack snacks so you're not skipping meals.
• Avoid “feel bad” foods.
• Drink lots of water.

I lost over 30 pounds when I was OTR by sticking to "The caveman diet" which is only eat and drink what the cavemen/ women would eat. (Paleo diet) it works. Now if only I could keep the weight off at home with the wife's yum yum cooking

A diet so easy even a caveman could do it. I like it
