Sly Fox's Weight Loss Attempt

Sly Fox,
As an old Iron hauler I always carried bottles of rubbing alcohol, vinegar,paper towels,and a clean bucket. You can wipe off with them,and be clean for the most part when you can't shower. Vinegar makes you smell like a salad for a little while ,but it kills the BO bacteria. The bucket catches what you slop in the truck. In warm weather I wore gym trunks,and did it at the rear of my trailer.

Diet is a tricky thing to do right. 600 calories to lose a pound of muscle,and 2400 calories to lose a pound of fat. If you do nothing to save the muscle like exercise up to ,and including weight training your body will burn muscle first ,and save the fat which will in the end have you being skinny fat if you yo yo diet to this effect you won't know who you are looking at in the mirror after a few try's at it.

Oatmeal is one of the best foods I have found for weight loss. Steel cut oats if you can get them,and yes forget about them being served at a truck stop. Oatmeal gives off its energy slower ,and you feel full longer. There is also something to be said about fish,chicken,eggs,olive oil ,nuts,and cruciferous vegetables. Starches get turned to sugar,and if not needed for energy get stored as fat for later use . For some people later use never comes . You do the math.

If you want to do cardio do it shortly after you awake if you can without eating first. If you do it while still fasting from sleeping you will force your body to burn fat,but if you eat first ,and break the fast your body will not fuel itself on body fat ,but the fruit loops you just ate.

Smoking,and Alcohol are bad as they both constrict blood vessels. You can supplement your diet with L-Arginine as it is a precursor to Nitric Oxide which helps to expand our blood vessels ,and facilitate blood flow. Serious weight lifters supplement with it all the time. Think Viagra that you take every day,and yes it helps there also!

After being on the road for 35 years,and being at home for a while now I realized the damage my eating habits,and the stress of trucking did to my health. Stress raises a hormone called cortisol which does a multitude of bad things to our body. Age itself lowers Testosterone ,and Human Growth Hormone in men,but I am happy to say that exercise,and weight lifting while not the fountain of youth can help to slow the process somewhat.

Exercise,Exercise,Exercise my friend you are on the right track. I started back lifting weights bench pressing 135 pounds for sets,and last night was a"light day" ,and I did sets with 325 pounds. Starting in walking with my wife,and almost died in the 1.8 miles she walks. Now 5 miles is no big deal,and I do 10-40 yard sprints back to back the way basketball players do suicide drills,and my grand kids can't keep up ,and" Pappy is 56.

I'm not sure I ever want to go back trucking again after seeing where I was ,and where I am now. Sure I miss the travel,but sure don't miss being out of shape!

High blood pressure plain old sucks . Took my first football physical in 9TH grade in high school. Doctor asked me if my BP was normally High. What does a kid know it was the first time I think I ever heard the term "High Blood Pressure". To look at me you would never guess I weigh 320 pounds # 6' . Its kind of a Bill Kazamaier look.

I am convinced High BP go's with certain body types. I always carried very little fat,but I could never ever float in swimming class in HS except at the bottom of the pool. The muscle mass was too dense,and heavy to float ,but the fat kids could float,and had normal BP. Any of this sound familiar? If I go back on the road I would join a Gold's Gym ,because they are everywhere,and your home gym can give you a monthly pass to use in any Gold's Gym Good luck,and God Bless my friend!

 

Quickly lower your blood pressure by fasting! I know this from first hand experience because I have fasted to lower my blood pressure and it worked.

I just like you needed to renew my medical card but when I went to the clinic my blood pressure was through the ROOF! It was so high they wanted me to go to the hospital and wouldn't let me leave to office until I signed some form. At that time I was about 340lbs, 6'4 and 23yrs old. YES 23 YEARS OLD.

To make a long story short I started to fast and got my renewed medical card a days later. YES DAYS. Do a search online, studies have shown you can drop your systolic by as much 40 and diastolic by as mush 25.

I continued to fast on and off for about 3 months and lost 130lbs! Fasting is the easiest thing you can do and feels great and saves you money on food instead of spending money on need.

Good luck buddy!

 

For all of you who want to lose wt. and get off high blood pressure meds and high blood sugar meds you need to check out web sites that offer hcg to There are several thousand but I used Bio Body hcg and they have a special web site for truckers, check out the web site. Using this method will get that weight of fast and then you can start healthy. I used it and lost over a hundred pounds in less than a year. I lost 37 lbs. in 40 days the first time!!. Sound too good to be true well its not it may be a bit hard to get used to but it works and I can prove it. My blood pressure went from 160/90 to 120/55 and all blood values were normal. My doctor was really impressed. So much so that she is reccomending it to her patients. Don't believe me? Just call I'll fill you in on details or respond to this post.
