I am starting to watch your videos. OMG you are a scream! I love your attitude and so far they are the BEST videos I have seen. I think you are going to be an inspiration to me. I am watching videos from 3 years ago but 3 years are really a day so it's all recent information. I see your little cat died and I haven't reached that video yet but I'll probably cry. You are a sweet soul and have a strong will. I feel I do too and I am heading to Vegas with my camper for 6 months to clear my mind and get myself ready to start training. I'm 59 so I hope I can get into one of the companies who will train me. I went on the road with my ex years ago. I lived in the truck for 3 years and absolutely loved the lifestyle. I am a gypsy at heart, always have been. Over the road is the way to go. Thanks for your videos so far. I'm going to spend the day binge watching (I think thats what hey call it). I also am going to use your videos to push me forward. It's a scary time in my life now I am finally free of responsibility and now my responsibility is to myself. I cant wait to start the last phase in my life!

OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.

Thank you so much! Some of them are really funny. I don't even mean to be funny and it comes out that way πŸ˜‚

I remember watching your videos when I still in the "thinking about trucking" phase, and I found everything about your videos great. They are really entertaining and informative. I really get you when you say that you are not trying to be funny, but it comes out that way. You are just naturally goofy, but not like that awkward goof that makes people cringe. It's more like just being fun-loving and not taking yourself too seriously.

Tammy, I just read your post. It is very inspiring. You seem like a person who sets sight on a goal and overcomes all obstacles to reach the goal.

It’s been a difficult journey , hasn’t it? I think everyone here is rooting for you, I know I am. Keep posting your progress.

Take a look at one of.my recent videos. My student, Miracle, failed the backing the first time and got 0.points the second time. She did a cartwheel after passing the backing I was able to film πŸ˜‚

Good luck. We are here for you

Kearsey, I don’t think you told us how you lost weight. What was your plan?

And, is your boyfriend also a driver?

Inquiring minds want to know! Lol

I don't have a boyfriend. I did go with a prime driver for over a year. We had a ton of fun. I had a boyfriend last year I kicked to the curb. I have a crush on a guy but it never goes anywhere... On the flip side I did go on a date with a Tyson driver and he fell hopelessly in love with me in one date. Creepy... So he is gone now too. He must have been on drugs πŸ˜‚

I started by losing weight by drinking water only, and started nutrisystem cause they have a ton of "snacks" with enough chocolate to curb my cravings. Then switched to a ton of protein and some walking in place YT videos.

On the road I ate mostly eggs, tuna, grilled chicken. Lots of salads.

At home I am still doing that with more salads. Everyday I have a huge salad and grilled chicken with garlic romano seasoning from the Prime cafe for lunch. I was also utilizing Primes free gym and workout classes, as well as their fitness trainers and nutritionists that basically contact me for motivation. I don't necessarily need them cause I know what to do...but I need the push from them.

I actually don't get cravings or even hungry anymore. I have to remind myself to eat.

I am now down 45 pounds and went from a size 22W to a size 14. I can get into 12, but too much belly fat creating a muffin top. But I will get there. One problem I am having is my bust size. When I lose weight I don't lose my breasts. So I went from a size 44DD to a 38GG. So my breasts look larger cause the rest is getting smaller.

My plan is to keep losing weight until I reach my goal, then next winter get a breast reduction and tummy tuck. πŸ˜‚ That way I am not on the training pad in the cold.

Being a company driver I can get the reduction done by insurance, go out on FMLA and get paid disability and still afford the tummy tuck.

The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.

You go girl! Look at you on πŸ”₯ I have discovered trying to date anyone outside this industry is futile as a woman. The constant "when are you coming home?" Question is absolutely infuriating. How about you check the calendar notation that I granted you access too? Good grief on the Tyson drivers, I had one pull the same stuff.
