Looking for Truckers with Lapband

My husband and I are over the road truckers.

I got my license CDL / AZ over a year ago and love being on the road together.

The trucking lifestyle can be challenging physically and mentally. We try to make good nutrition choices when were working. Pretty much all of the food we make on board has been purchased at Walmart.

I'm looking to connect with anyone that has a lapband and has a career in the trucking. Just wondering how or what kind of daily routine you might have working on the road.

My lapband surgery date is set for April 6, 2016.

I've been overweight for most of my life. Looking to improve my general state of health. Hoping to move better with less strain and pain.

Currently weight 256 lbs - looking to lose 100 lbs.

Trying to read as much bariatric lapband information as possible - getting my head into my new up & coming lifestyle change. Fully embracing this new path / journey I'm on.

Thanks for stopping by - cheers B)

I'm not a trucker but I want to say your post is very inspirational. Planning for a healthy lifestyle and getting your ducks in a row before surgery is so smart. Best of luck to you!

I seem to recall a member "bacon" I believe who was a long haul trucker. He talked about walking around the truck a lot. And pre packing everything.

Hope he is still around.. I don't know, but I believe he was in the " accountability chat group.

Good luck!
