Why I started my Journey

Hi, My name is Kimberley. This is My Journey to a healthy lifestyle on the road. My husband, Jason and I own a small trucking company that is leased on to Fedex Custom Critical. We drive coast to coast and really get to see so many beautiful sites. Beside not being home often the down side to our job is always on the go. The Old habit of grabbing something quick and keep going really catch up fast. When I first started to drive with my husband, I use to workout several times a week. I love my fresh veggies and fruit. But, adapting to my new job was hard. I was tired had lack of energy especially after a long load. So we would just grab anything to eat, whether I like it or not it was food. Well, a few years later I realized how much that was not really working for us. I seen a picture of me at Christmas and I was really not happy with what I seen. I had to buy new clothes because nothing fit me anymore. I was still lacked energy and felt uncomfortable. So, This past year I have found for the most part it is just as easy to cook in our truck. I do have to make several stops to the market to keep the food fresh and we are limited on space. I have found many great web sites that have helped me learn how to eat right and what is clean healthy food. I'm starting this blog to share the great sites and people I have met with you. Plus, what a great way for me to keep motivated! I am new to this and my time is tight so please accept my apologies if it takes me a little be to get it fully up. Plus, please pardon my grammar.
