Great work, Kal! Consistency was my key. It wasn't (and still isn't) easy. It's hard to say no to a Slurpee, a poutine, or a bag of cheezies or Doritos, especially when I'm tired. It's even harder when I'm travelling with work. That's when I find planning ahead is a huge benefit. I keep chopped veggies and humus ready to go in the fridge and some fruit on the counter. Changing lifestyle isn't a sprint, it's a marathon. Actually, it's like Terry Fox's Marathon of Hope - it's a marathon, every day. Just always remember: All the little changes, collectively, make huge differences in the long term.
Hey Aaron! I completely agree with you! I don't want to get preoccupied with the numbers. They're important but how I feel is more important. I'm trying to make better choices and, yes, I totally agree with you about how it's hard to walk by that burger, pizza, whatever that you want so much!! I'll get where I need to go. The results I've already had have been totally unexpected. Hopefully they'll continue.
Congratulations on the weight loss. It’s hard to start but once you keep with it, results will show themselves. I’m down 30 lbs from end of April and man, I feel so much better. I’m 6”1 and was 204 when I started. I cut out all the processed foods and sugary drinks. I also try and walk 5000 steps a day. I’m really enjoying big rig ramblings! See you on the next one!
All that is awesome! I can see the difference in your face. Keep up the good work. Losing weight is hard. I’ve gave up my wine trying to lose a bit. As I mentioned to you before my dad was a driver and after going with him for years I’ve seen the food offerings and it’s really a shame. The truck stops in Italy and most of Europe offer fresh real food that is so much healthier. Not prepackaged food. Keep up the great work!
Great video Kal. Keep up the effort. It is worth it, trust me, everything works better! Accountability is a key, and I applaud you for your openness. This is from a guy who with the help of a great doctor, surgeon, nurse, social worker, dietician, family and friends has lost the weight I needed to lose.
