This day 2 years ago my wife and son had to carry me and load me into the car. I was too weak to stand on my own. I couldn’t walk.
I was on my way to the ER in diabetic ketoacidosis. Glucose 693. A1C was 12.6.
It was a scary experience. I saw fear in the eyes of my wife. She didn’t know what was wrong with me. She thought she was about to become a widow.
I was incoherent. The next few days are pretty much a daze for me.
But on my second day in the ICU I was aware enough to ask her why I was there. That’s when she told me.
I was T2D and had gone into DKA.
I didn’t know. Hadn’t had blood work in a few years. I had contracted COVID two weeks prior for the first time. Covid exacerbated the T2D.
So here I was.
In the ICU and coming to the realization I was there because I had eaten my way into this problem. This very serious problem.
I could have made my wife a widow and my children fatherless.
And for what? Food? That 3rd helping? Those extra peanut butter cups? Pizza? Gluttony?
In that moment I vowed to eat my way back out.
And that’s what I’ve done.
Never again will my wife and son have to physically carry me because I wasn’t responsible enough to care for my health as I should.
Never again will I be the weak link in my family.
So I do what I got to do each and every day to ensure I reduce the chances of my wife and children ever having to see me like that again.
They deserve me at my best so that’s what I’m goin to give them from this point forward.
If you know you got changes to make, make them.
Don’t delay. Life is too precious.

We took our UP INVINCIBLE Cyberbeast out for some hardcore testing and needless to say, it did not disappoint.
Products in the video included UP-03 Beadlock, Front Bull Bar, Front HD Bumper, Carbon Fiber Hood System with 50” LED Light Bar, Rear HD Bumper with side step and Left and Right Swing Arms, Rocksliders, Molle Rack with Roof Rails.
Wanted to share my cybertruck efficiency today.
Trip B was reset when I got into the interstate. I24 and SR840 in middle TN. Fsd profile is standard with 75 as the max speed and we did not exceed it. Tires at 50psi. Ambient temp 41F.
721 wh/mile
Camped in the cybertent a few nights.
Got some rain.
Temps today in the 60’s.
Great day to deploy the tent and let it air out.
Some positive.
You can have a net positive impact on your family.
I weighed about 340 pounds in the top pic.
Since then my family has lost about what I weighed in the top pic.
Spread the love and let’s make X the best platform for all things life!

Tesla Voice Commands Guide
I knew that I could talk to my Tesla -- telling it to "open glovebox" and "navigate to..."
But I didn't know there were this many commands!
Shiva Sapkota created this handy voice commands guide.
July 2021 we went to Universal Studios.
I couldn’t fit on the rides. Was too obese.
Went back and rode all the rides.
Bonus:
Since I got sick, my family has lost about what I used to weigh in this pic.
Super proud of my wife and kids. 🙏
One of the things I love about my @cybertruck is it gets better even while supercharging on a road trip!

You woke up today with another chance to heal, grow, and optimize your life. That’s a blessing. Let’s make it count.

Think about this: The most expensive thing you’ll ever eat is junk food. It costs you your health. Invest in real, whole foods—they’ll pay you back for life.
Camping in the Cybertruck is just one reason I have no ragrets with this truck…not even a single letter.
The future is here!
