Going Healthy

11/9/2009

4-20-11 new addition to post:  I unfortunately fell off the vegetarian diet because it was too time consuming and I love eating out.   I eventually gained even more weight (354 pounds at my heaviest)  I am all for a healthy vegetarian diet but I found a system that works even better for me and doesnt rely on any one particular type of food!!!  I eat whatever type of food I like and am currently down to 307!!  I blog about it here http://www.healthtrucker.com


Old Post:
I love to eat.  There is no better way in my opinion to reward ones self for a hard day over the road than a good sit down meal.  Preferably at a top notch restaurant.  Unfortunately those meals where taking a toll and I ballooned up to 340 lbs. With the weight came Pre-Diabetes, High Blood pressure, and  Sleep Apnea. Then I started to have Panic attacks and I knew it was time to make a change. I tried quite a few things but it wasn't until I went vegetarian "oh yeah, and started taking the Metformin my Doctor had prescribed for me"  that I  met with success.  In five weeks I lost thirty pounds.  What has been really amazing though is that even though I fell off of my Vegetarian Diet I still have kept most of the 30 lbs off that I originally lost.  That is where the Metformin may be helping, also I still bring fresh fruits, nuts and veggies with me on the truck.  I will blog more tonight about some of the things that have been helping me on the health battle.  Untill then "Eat a Grape" Peace  Highwaym.
