Just starting FTS.
« on: April 16, 2013, 02:44:49 PM »
Hello to everyone. I'm new to the FTS lifestyle. I'm very excited. Just finished reading the book. Amazing. It makes such good sense. Now making myself stay strong and get over my extremely bad sugar addiction will be my all time challenge, but I'm determined.
Still trying to learn to work the forum. I'm not very computer savvy.
Hopefully the support I lack with friends and family I will find here.
Me and my husband are truck drivers and stay out for 6 days. So I will be eating out alot.
But, I know now after reading Doug's book that it can be done.
So, hello everyone and any advice or tips would be wonderful.
Weight 189
I want to get back to 130.

Welcome Kittymojo75.  At a guess your best bet would be 'planning, planning and planning'.  Being prepared will make it so much easier for you.  Think outside the box -get creative.  Use an esky (cold box) and a thermos.

If you are stopping at truck stops, I presume you can get bacon and eggs without a problem (that is usually my daily breakfast), for lunch getting a burger (skip the sauce and the bun), etc.  Deli sections in supermarkets are great too - some cold meats/cheese.  Sugarfree gum while driving.  I'm sure you will manage just fine. 

Finding comfort stops with all the water you're going to be drinking may be a little trickier  :D

Good luck, check in and post often.
