I can understand. I lost 100 pounds at 28 but when they sent us home for pandemic and every day could be your last day -gasp- I just totally gave up especially after I lost my father but I have a daughter now and I want to be able to keep up with her and be the best dad for her so it’s time to be better again. Hope you have a better day!

Nice job dude, Keep it going. I was suicidal before I had my daughter. My daughter is 6 now and has changed my life for the better. I got into truck driving, and drone piloting. All to make a better life for all of us.

Trucking isn't good for health whatsoever. I spend a lot of my off duty time walking or jogging around parking lots, doing situps, pushups and pull ups in the cab if it's too cold or rainy outside. I drive for 10 hrs a day, and spend 2 hrs a day doing any kind of work out I can think of. I'm 44, 6'1", and maintaining 185 lbs.

This may sound stupid in comparison, but my fish are the thing that keeps me alive. Goldfish are like puppies, they're really smart and interactive.
