    Spinning it around would have put the heaviest part to the middle of the trailer. Would have moved more weight than the forks. And much quicker too.

    I hadn’t ate since breakfast which isn’t good lol, I get sick and shake if I go to long without eating. I had been craving BBQ anyway so I took advantage of it. Place has a nice atmosphere.

    So far I’m not feeling the spicy burn in my stomach as I do from Chili’s restaurant BBQ.


    I’ve never eaten at this place, it’s in a mall about 4 miles off I-64 in Kentucky. We were headed to Rural King at the end of the strip so it worked out good….

    Not eating, get the shakes and you have to break down a trailer and secure a load. Bad feeling.
    Have you ever tried Boost? D66C58EB-A64C-4C7D-A082-4211C8AE4977.jpeg

    Seems like a quiet place. And the food looks great. That’s a win win.

    @OLDSKOOLERnWV I have the exact same problem. You ever figure it out, please let me know. Had blood sugar checked so many times I've lost count. So far thats not it.

    Someone is 5, I had to include the nose pick for my humor. Seemed like we went to a kids Rave Party. And she happened to request dinner at my favorite Italian restaurant. This is what happens when the owner makes your dinner. Italian sausage, meatball stuffed lasagna, with a loaf their bread. She had pizza. It was just me and her. I did not bring home leftovers. @stwik I made the stomach proud in this one!

    Got up one morning, drove 2 hours to pick up an OSOW. Shipper tells me that they need it tarped. No food all da, tarped all day. Ran out of daylight. The shakes were there all morning, and I worked through it. Bobtailed to a truck stop and my fingers started cramping up. Excruciating pain. Had to go inside and buy some pamprin (yeah, that stuff for female cramps) because my hands cramped so bad that I couldn’t eat.

    I carry an emergency case of Boost now. It fuels the machine and prevents the shakes when you are rushed for time, and it will hold you until you can properly feed the machine.

    I get shakes, sweat, sick. But nothing to throw up really. I just need a tiny snack, those Belvita little breakfast crackers help, one pack. I have the same issue with drinking to much coffee. I love black coffee, but to much without food. Its all coming back up. Apparently I have a very sensitive empty stomach. Does not stop me from drinking coffee either.
