Thanks Dan I had surgery today for cancer and your post was just the right thing to keep my mind of the pain. Thanks for all the posts I have seen all of them. Keep the wheels turning.
Bailey laying there... "Dog-gone It dad, where's mine". I used to cook breakfast for my pup and I, and it would be a good feed. Eggs, Sausages, Home Fries, Toast etc. I move at a pretty good pace in the kitchen, and having done this so many times, I'm running on autopilot. Obviously, I cook a pup-friendly version for my little girl. So it takes a couple of pans, the toaster, the coffee maker etc. But that morning, when I was done there had been a major malfunction. My plate and her bowl were side by side on the counter and I had home fries and toast, and her bowl had the eggs and sausages in with her dry food. Long story short, I had a vegan breakfast that day. My little girl, like Bailey is such a sweetheart and very considerate, she left me her dry kibble just in case I got hungry.
I was a big bread eater and decided to lose some weight. I did not stop eating bread. I just cut back on how many slices of bread I eat a day. I used to eat about 8 to 10 slices a day, and now I cut it in half and drop 25 pounds. Find what works for you. What may work for someone else may not work for you.God bless safe travels
Hey Dan, I’ve been “driving” computer monitors for 35 years as a desk jockey and just turned 56. We are similar in build, and the last 3 years have been tough, I think my metabolism took early retirement and did tell the rest of us who will be working at least another decade. Keep up the good work and Hi to Bailey!
the best thing you can do is reduce carbs/sugars and add more protein to your diet. add some intermittent fasting, 45 minutes to an hour of walking a day and the pounds will fall off. i lost 40 pounds doing this.
Know exactly how you feel.. Since I was diagnosed with diabetes. My life has been going down hill. Didn't help that my wife passed away also. 30 years as a professional firefighter in Baltimore totally wore me out also. My saying has always been after 50 it's all DOWN HILL. Have a Great Day....
I been retired some 13yrs now and my truck belly is just starting to go. I've also lost 14lbs and that may be all to do with keep the lawn cut by hadpush electric mower. I'd guess ther are a lot of us that remember Bailey's first appearance.
Hey Dan, thank for the reminder to stay out of Walcott this weekend. If you like PBJ sandwiches, those uncrustables are good in a pinch. Fattening but good
Started watching you about the same time as Indiana Jack. he's been gone for a while. Mayonnaise is full of bad stuff. Safe travels Dan trucked for 40 years lived the good ole days.I'm retired now. Still feel the chill when I see a Beautiful large car out for a stroll LOL. God Speed Dan.
Dan, Cooking on the road is a challenge for sure, I cook on the truck as well. Besides the cost savings it does allow you to control what you eat. Safe travels driver.
Dan as a forced retired driver I to was a big guy and in 2011 had a heart attack and my weight was a lot of what caused my heart attack so keep trying to get the weight down I we’ll never be able to go back to work it suck I finally got over 160 lb of weight loss but it was too late for me to be able to drive a truck so I’m praying for you that you keep working hard at getting healthy stay safe out there if we don’t have truckers we don’t have products for the stores 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏👍
Replace the bun with Egglife original egg white wraps. Occasionally microwave a piece of Jimmy Dean sausage and put that on your breakfast sandwich. You can find these in the frozen food section. I dropped 19 pounds through intermittent fasting, cutting carbs & sugars. Thank you Dan. Enjoyed the ride along.
Hi Dan always a pleasure driving along with you and Bailey. Brings back the great memories of when I was out on the road. You and Bailey drive safe from Tim in NS Canada.
Your very fortunate to have a cozy functional studio to cook, clean yourself and catch some rest. What an awesome setup you have Dan. Better keep healthy and fit now while your ahead of the game, trying to catch up and get back to healthy state can and more times than not, end up being a never ending battle. Be safe Dan, look forward to your next adventure with you, your Peterbuilt and Bailey !👋🤠
I for one would love to see you do more cooking on the road videos. As a learning tool for new drivers on what they can make while being on the road as well. Just an idea
I'm older than you, Dan and I've found it helpful, weightwise, to seriously cut down on Carbs, I barely touch them in Summer. I know you're still working, so probably need them more than I do anymore.
Dan, u won’t believe this. Today for lunch made Exactly chicken sandwich. I just added mayo, a little dry parsley an pepper. Good idea for egg sandwich. Take care drive safe.
I know you mentioned I-88 but stay away from I-80 through Joliet. All under construction. You get there at the wrong time, you'll wish you didn't even bother lol.
No meat substitute? lol Need a ham slices. Anyway, I thought when you got the shack that was to help with the diet rather than truckstop/fast food? Well, enjoy.
i messed up once and US 30 off of I-80 at Juliett going east. that was the 1st time i ever ran into so many stop and go lights later i was told to follow I080 to I-65 south THEN take Us 30 east, less stop and go lights; at the time it was a 2 lane highway, but i hear they've widened it further east. wasnt many truck stops to part or rest areas on that route. hated driving it at night.
Dan, I UBER to planet fitness or I park very near a Planet Fitness...No body knows, I am a trucker unless I tell them...because I work out so frequently...hope it helps.
Dan you want to loose wait, give up the mayo, bread, pickle sauce and you don’t need cheese for breakfast. Cook the eggs and some lean bacon or ham. You’ll be amazed even a wrap has 178 Kcals in them so two wraps is 356 Kcals or more than 15% of your daily calorie intake in raps alone none of the filling. With bread your talking two of those rolls will be 400 Kcals it’s the hidden calories that kill you. Diet drinks, black coffee no sugar or creamer as you take a zero calorie black coffee up to 500 with sugar & creamer. Keep a food diary, list everything (weigh it !) & it’s calories and aim for under 2000 a day. Walk the dog for an hour a day and the weight will move. I’ve lost 20lbs straight away.
I switched to a low carb diet after I started trucking. I lost 50 lbs. I gain some of it back when I'm at home. You can do carnivore, keto, atkins, etc. Or just check on the Glucose Goddess and follow some of her recommendations.
Hey Chef Dan. Bailey was intently watching your cooking and must have OK’d everything ;-). When you detoured to avoid the stretch of toll road, I got to wondering how much truckers have to pay in tolls in addition to all the fuel taxes. Thanks and drive safely.
Dan, take it from me, I lost 40 lbs. by just watching my carbohydrates (sp.) the worst thing is bread. Bread as all carbs. turns into sugar and is stored as fat.
Thanks Dan I had surgery today for cancer and your post was just the right thing to keep my mind of the pain. Thanks for all the posts I have seen all of them. Keep the wheels turning.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
@@davidcarroll8735 thanks to all of you and God Bless
Get well soon
Good luck Mark

That's right!!! Moderation is key. 'Diets' are hit or miss.
I pack a Coleman grill. On nice days, I cook some grilled chicken outside and it stores well for the week in the fridge.

Hey Dan, get rid of the bread and get a wrap that’ll help you lose weight because the bread’s not good for you and also stay away from the regular pop
Food has been compromised for a long time.
the best thing you can do is reduce carbs/sugars and add more protein to your diet. add some intermittent fasting, 45 minutes to an hour of walking a day and the pounds will fall off. i lost 40 pounds doing this.
It's carbs that makes you gain weight
Just as .uch cards in a tortilla as a slice of vread
Since when did you become his daddy and tell him what to do mind ur own business
Dan, good to see you back on a video. I think I have watched almost all of your videos and I enjoy them. Keep safe out there!
The truck cooking looked great. Bailey is living the best life.
Cooking show with Dan! That’s a neat little device to cook your eggs in, I’ll have to look for one of those. Be safe out there.
Dan, I love the cooking show, but don’t give up you day job.
Know exactly how you feel.. Since I was diagnosed with diabetes. My life has been going down hill. Didn't help that my wife passed away also. 30 years as a professional firefighter in Baltimore totally wore me out also. My saying has always been after 50 it's all DOWN HILL. Have a Great Day....
Chef Dans rolling snack bar. LOL
Those Hardees sausage biscuits are habit forming!
Looking good, Dan. Even watching from 35000 ft 3:37
I respect a man that seeks out and fixes rattles. A well maintained machine should not rattle.
Cooking with Dan stay safe brother from the imperial county California 👍🇺🇲
Words of every trucker "I know where it's at i just don't know what it's called" lol
Nice to see some change in your content. Keep up the healthy eating!
Yeah that truck is bad for the legs and back I did it for 36 years Another good one Dan 🚛🇺🇲👏

I love the easy back road rides, although in my four wheeler, enjoyed your ride as well with the great music!
I been retired some 13yrs now and my truck belly is just starting to go. I've also lost 14lbs and that may be all to do with keep the lawn cut by hadpush electric mower. I'd guess ther are a lot of us that remember Bailey's first appearance.
Its called old age Dan.I remember Callie,good pup.I just lost my last pup on Monday night,I guess she had a heart attack,she just turned 15.
Try some chopped green onion, and celery with your chicken salad. Thanks for sharing.
More cooking videos Dan!
Hey Dan, thank for the reminder to stay out of Walcott this weekend. If you like PBJ sandwiches, those uncrustables are good in a pinch. Fattening but good
Hi Dan. Yeah for some reason life has a way of catching up with all of us !
Bailey 🐶 Said, hey Pops, what are you Cooking in the Kitchen for Me ? 😬👍
Started watching you about the same time as Indiana Jack. he's been gone for a while. Mayonnaise is full of bad stuff. Safe travels Dan trucked for 40 years lived the good ole days.I'm retired now. Still feel the chill when I see a Beautiful large car out for a stroll LOL. God Speed Dan.
Dan good to see ya missed you an Bailey 😊
Any updates on the Dorsey step Dec
Dan,
Cooking on the road is a challenge for sure, I cook on the truck as well. Besides the cost savings it does allow you to control what you eat.
Safe travels driver.
That was different I like it
Whenever you retire from trucking Dan you can start your own Chef Dan youtube channel for quick DIY recipes for truck drivers.
Yep I remember Cali been watching your videos since so you want to be a owner operator first time commenting tho, keep on trucking 🤙👍
Dan as a forced retired driver I to was a big guy and in 2011 had a heart attack and my weight was a lot of what caused my heart attack so keep trying to get the weight down I we’ll never be able to go back to work it suck I finally got over 160 lb of weight loss but it was too late for me to be able to drive a truck so I’m praying for you that you keep working hard at getting healthy stay safe out there if we don’t have truckers we don’t have products for the stores 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🙏🙏👍
They feed grain to cows to fatten them up. When you eat foods made with grain, you're fattening yourself up.
Hardee's, love their ham and cheese sandwiches. Good thing no longer live near any. Lol.
Replace the bun with Egglife original egg white wraps. Occasionally microwave a piece of Jimmy Dean sausage and put that on your breakfast sandwich. You can find these in the frozen food section. I dropped 19 pounds through intermittent fasting, cutting carbs & sugars. Thank you Dan. Enjoyed the ride along.
Dan
You have the best trucking videos and the music is great!
Welcome back my friend and Bailey
Hi Dan always a pleasure driving along with you and Bailey. Brings back the great memories of when I was out on the road. You and Bailey drive safe from Tim in NS Canada.

Be safe Dan, look forward to your next adventure with you, your Peterbuilt and Bailey !👋🤠
The baggies are perfect for keeping your hands clean as you eat & drive at the same time lol
It"s all that sugar your eating!!!
When you tell us it’s a nice day I think Goldilocks. Not too hot - not too cold - but just right!! 😂😂😂😎
Great to see another video in your classic style.
Thank you for the beautiful ride.
I for one would love to see you do more cooking on the road videos. As a learning tool for new drivers on what they can make while being on the road as well. Just an idea
Hi Dan, looks like you have things all planed out.
I'm older than you, Dan and I've found it helpful, weightwise, to seriously cut down on Carbs, I barely touch them in Summer.
I know you're still working, so probably need them more than I do anymore.
👍🏻 Love my microwave egg cooker. I use egg beaters in mine to save a few calories. I also add a slice of Costco Kirkland sliced ham.
Carbs Dan, cut out carbs as much as possible. You can loose 5-6 pounds a month. Worked for me. Cheers, keep on truckin !!
I hadn't heard from you in a while. I went to your UA-cam channel to make sure that I hadn't been unsubscribed or just missed a video. Welcome back.
Hello Dan, the word is "grommet " not garmet.
looking good DAN,
That cat sure running good I can tell by the exhaust and the Turbo,
be safe take care yourself DAN
That's how my Mama used to make tuna fish sandwiches. And she drove trucks in the original Red Ball Express. Look it up y'all.
I have been missing you on the tube. Hope all is well. Keep on trucking and posting.
Dan, u won’t believe this. Today for lunch made Exactly chicken sandwich. I just added mayo, a little dry parsley an pepper.
Good idea for egg sandwich. Take care drive safe.
Good to see you. Thanks. ❤❤❤❤
Thanks for your time and video plus the insight into how life is on the highway in America
Safe travels 🌵🇬🇧👍
High protein foods and fruits and vegetables avoid the carbs and sugars
I eat shredded wheat with blueberries and milk each and every morning.
I know you mentioned I-88 but stay away from I-80 through Joliet. All under construction. You get there at the wrong time, you'll wish you didn't even bother lol.
I-80 through Joliet has been under construction for years.
No meat substitute? lol Need a ham slices. Anyway, I thought when you got the shack that was to help with the diet rather than truckstop/fast food? Well, enjoy.
That was some nice cooking Dan.
Beautiful Mid-Western day.
i messed up once and US 30 off of I-80 at Juliett going east. that was the 1st time i ever ran into so many stop and go lights later i was told to follow I080 to I-65 south THEN take Us 30 east, less stop and go lights; at the time it was a 2 lane highway, but i hear they've widened it further east. wasnt many truck stops to part or rest areas on that route. hated driving it at night.
You're a real Danny Crocker! Haha. Keep On Truckin!
👍😎👍 we were just at the Iowa 80 yesterday. I guessing we missed you by a few days.
Thanks and we all have gained lbs😢
Not me. I lost 40 lbs.
Dan, I UBER to planet fitness or I park very near a Planet Fitness...No body knows, I am a trucker unless I tell them...because I work out so frequently...hope it helps.
Try meal replacement shakes, great for when there is no time, and you're on the move!
Good job, Dan👍👍👍
Dan you want to loose wait, give up the mayo, bread, pickle sauce and you don’t need cheese for breakfast. Cook the eggs and some lean bacon or ham.

Really enjoyed video. Homemade food definitely better than the biscuit shops.
If you like meat with the breakfast sandwich, the Walmart frozen sausage patties are the right size for sandwiches
Hope you enjoyed the pretty drive Bailey, your so cute girl. 🤗
Dan's cooking class now in session
Dan have you ever taken Bailey to the dog wash at the Iowa 80?
hi bailey bailey... good girl
I've always wondered why Pilot Flying J and Planet Fitness don't get together. Truck stops and gyms under one roof. Seems kinda obvious to me.
Hope you've well, Been a while between video's. Used to truck myself , enjoy your travels. Bob
just giving you shit your a great guy
Diesel is 4 a gallon in my state. If the toll was over 8 dollars, you saved money on the scenic route.
Hey Chef Dan. Bailey was intently watching your cooking and must have OK’d everything ;-). When you detoured to avoid the stretch of toll road, I got to wondering how much truckers have to pay in tolls in addition to all the fuel taxes. Thanks and drive safely.
What about making frozen burritos. But make them healthy. I've gained weight also
Travel safe, Dan!!!
When’s the Dorsey step deck happening?
Great episode Dan. Mick London
Dan, you need a sausage patty or a ham slice on that breakfast sandwich!!! 😋😋😋
Stay well 🇺🇸🗽🚛👍💯
It looks like you are eating fairly well. It is not exactly "gourmet" cooking but I could enjoy one of those breakfast sandwiches right about now. 😊
Good to hear from you again. Have you heard any news on the stepdeck? Just curious as I pull step and RGN . Be safe .
Now I'm hungry. 😄
You should put some ham or precooked bacon on your breakfast sandwiches !!!
Fun videos Bailey and Dan 😊😅😮😢🎉😂❤❤❤❤
DAN, OPPS CHEF DAN, NICE JOB CHEF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dan, take it from me, I lost 40 lbs. by just watching my carbohydrates (sp.) the worst thing is bread. Bread as all carbs. turns into sugar and is stored as fat.
What’s up with the step deck trailer?
