A drivers diet.

Rich T:
After leaving my active job last November im now sat on my ■■■■ for most of it driving.
Eating the same foods as before but burning less off.
I could honestly count on 1 hand how many times ive eaten off a food van in that time.

Diet is (and always has been) corn flakes etc for breakfast. 2 rolls, 2 oatmeal,cereal or chocolate bars. 1 or 2 bags of crisps and an apple and grapes. 4 to 6 cups of coffee.

Decent dinners. Salads etc in the summer and heart warming grub in the winter.

Ive put on 2 stone in almost a year. I bought new clothes about 6 months ago that dont really fit me anymore so need to do something about it now.

Exercise wise, i walk the dog for an hour or so every evening.

Working the hours i do mean im either eating, sleeping, working or winding down in the evenings.

What do the health conscious among you do to keep the weight off?

Im 47, 5ft9 and 14 stone. Should be around the 12 mark.

Cheers
Rich

Too much sugar! Eating cereal loaded with sugar in the morning (don’t forget the milk is full of sugar also), 2choc bars at lunch plus maybe 6 coffee’s with 2 sugars each? Just the sugar in coffee alone is probably the recommended daily intake.

It’s a recipe for getting fat and probably diabetes later in life.

Personally these days i don’t eat until around 1500 or 1600 just have a cup of tea in the morning. Then every time i feel hungry i have a glass of water.

Not easy to break the cycle though :cry:
