Another quality video, well done Ken. Blueberrys are good they keep better than all the other berrys, buy low fat yoghurt in a 4 packs, buy a bag of muesli that does not have too much sugar/honey added, combine the 3 and you have a healthy brekky or snack. The Trucking industry should take note of how hard it is to eat healthy as a driver, maybe have a fruit bowl in the depot, or a vending machine that sells healthier food at a less than supermarket price, it seems there is a driver shortage, so they had better look after the ones they have and maybe attract more. I do realise that even if you supply free fruit, some people will still choose chips N gravy.

Hi Ken. I'm really enjoying your vids. I'm 66. 0ver 40 years ago I pulled trailers with a Deutz long nose. It was an air-cooled V8 with 6 speed box and a spitter. Power steering but you'd never know! A few runs in later trucks with roadranger boxes but all pretty prehistoric compared to what you're running. Really enjoying both the sense of memories flooding back and also how different things are now. Cheers bro. Mark

The effort you’re making on their behalf in both your documenting and the work that you do is outstanding and very considerate. By the way, the educational/tutorial component that you’ve been integrating into your videos is also great. Keep it up mate! Each video is as good if not better than the last!

interesting vid. FYI, as a fellow traveller with BP issues, it's not the skim and low fat milk in your iced coffee that is the problem; it's the sugar in the commercial brands. Likewise the muesli bars and simple carbs in white bread. Check with GP the type of BP meds prescribed as some are not compatible with high potassium diet. At least you are aware of the issue. A home machine to monitor BP is cheap and effective.

Hey Ken! Thanks for a really interesting video! Your videos are very relaxing, and I am enjoying cruising the highways with your knowledgeable commentary and changing scenery through your truck window! Hope your BP comes down, and yes, fruit such as blueberries and red colored fruits are full of antioxidants which would also help with BP management. Just a question regarding sleep deprivation - how do you manage to get enough sleep in between driving such long hours when you have time constraints and goods to deliver, but still 100s of kms to travel? I know you get your well deserved 24 hour breaks, but I often wonder how interstate truck drivers keep safe and alert hour after hour. Take care and best wishes :)

Good luck with the health issues, not my field so no advice. I would urge you to see a dietician though, they can be very good. The lifestyle of a truckie is not one that leads to proper eating at consistent times, and as you said, always in a hurry. I was used to big hours, but always started at similar times and finished at similar times. I try to imagine your changing routine and can't get my head around it, got to be hard. I was helping a guy out doing chaser bin duties at Brookstead, counting the trucks helps pass the day, quite a few Lindsays, GTS and various grain operatives. Gets really good as dusk passes and the lights take effect, alot of bling out there.

@@thehomelesstrucky I think having take away coffees from the coffee machines would still be okay for you, unless your Dr says otherwise of course. However iced coffees and flavored milk in general are horrific for your health, and your mental health too. After all it's true, we are what we eat and those drinks are terrible. I'm sure it will be a hard drink to give up, but your health will improve noticeably including brain fog if you have that.

As a shareholder of Lindsay's it very reassuring to see my money in professional hands. Your down to earth style makes everything real and not sensationalised. Great viewing. A suggestion. Our roads would be a lot safer if non truck drivers were educated on how to live with trucks safely. What most car drivers do not realise is that when a truck is on the wrong side of the road to pass a car, it is the car driver that is in danger. This is because if a vehicle appears coming the other way the truck will move over, better to push the car off the road who may survive, than have a head on where a fatality is a virtual certainty. You may like to give some advice for non truck drivers so that or roads are safer for everybody. As a retiree I give extra respect and courtesy to truck drivers as they pay taxes which pays my pension.

These videos are absolutely fascinating brother. Amazing cinematography and the most detailed insight into the life of a real Aussie truck driver I have come across. Thank you so much for sharing. Stay safe out there on the roads and keep an eye out for The White Ox in your travels.....

Yeah the older we get the more we gotta take care of our health. You can eat normally , its just maybe drink less coffee or have decaffinated lol ! Plenty of water, short walks now and then, eating health foods, and nothing wrong having steak, sausages and chips once a week. Getting plenty of sleep. Hey do you like swimming? Yeah I know you do a lot of travelling. You just do what you can do. Good you trying to look after your health buddy xxxx Yeah its more like trying to break a bad habit and develop a good one hahaha!

Ken, I was in your position as well, blood pressure. This is what I did to fix my weight as well. Change your diet to 90% protein., you stay fuller for longer with less food. You will need to change your ways a little. Stay right away from the flavoured milk. Set yourself a routine as much as possible and don't be afraid to have 3 or 4 eggs for breakfast. I know it's hard but get yourself a little gas cooker and buy some minute steaks, 30 seconds each side and your done. You will be surprised at all the varieties of eggs, steak, hamburger mince, lots of onion, you get the idea here. You will drop kilos in no time and feel rejuvenated. Take it from me it's to easy to have a quick stop and buy a chocolate bar and sandwich, these are your enemy.......Good Luck to you
