Mentor/Training "Rest Stops"

You tell the trainer that the trip planning will revolve around your necessary stops. Its no ifs buts or maybes. Its what you live with.

There will be issues meeting appt times possibly and so forth. You are going to lose hours every 24 which will imperil service to the customers who depend on that truck being there.

How many stops after eating per day do you require? 3 one hour stops or more every 24 will cut into the ability to get the rig down the road.

 

You may need to adjust your eating times. You should also be aware of the fact that at times, there will be no restrooms available for long stretches. Don’t put yourself in a bad position.

 

If your drugs contain Loprimide as a active you must follow the limited doses allowed per 24 hours. If you keep taking say a whole bottle all day and a second in the night, your gut will stop working and you will become a really sick person in a hurry due to overdose from over use.

I like kaeopectate myself. But depend on a steady type of foods every day to be consistent. Any time you eat strange foods, your bacterial sometimes need a few days to readapt to breaking down the waste. Which is why you sometimes require that immodium or other.

A second thought about this is water. If you carry a case of bottled retail water with you by the quart you know you can avoid local water issues served at the dinner table if it is not treated. It can make you sick for a little while too that way.

 

I think if that's the case before you spend any of your money getting a cdl or time see if you can adjust in your normal life and if you can live with it then move forward with the cdl unfortunately most doesn't care about the drivers needs you are there to make them money at megas

 

Eat once a day imo

 

Same boat. Lost large part of colon and small intestine. When I was in the truck over the road I planned my meals to coordinate with deliveries so I could use bathrooms.
