Meet Sweet Truckin’: The Road Warrior with a Sweet Tooth
Picture this: You’re a 50-year-old truck driver, clocking endless hours behind the wheel, with a dashboard full of receipts and a belly full of truck stop “cuisine.” Enter Sweet Truckin’—a guy just like you—who decided to try something wild: a 30-day Sugar Fast. He filmed his journey, tossed it on YouTube, and next thing you know, he’s a viral sensation, fielding questions from curious (and sometimes skeptical) viewers across the internet.
Sweet Truckin’ was genuinely surprised by the attention his first video got. People wanted details, they wanted proof, they wanted the secret sauce (spoiler: it’s mostly sugar and cinnamon). So, he followed up with more videos, clarifying his process and how he keeps the pounds off—without losing his mind or his muscle.

The Sweet Truckin’ Sugar Fast: What You Actually Do
Forget everything you know about crash diets, detox teas, and juice cleanses. The Sweet Truckin’ Sugar Fast is as straightforward as your favorite highway:
- Four times a day: Mix 100g white sugar and 1/4 tsp cinnamon into 500ml of water.
- V8 for potassium: Drink 250ml of spicy or low-sodium V8 (add cayenne if you’re feeling bold, or potassium chloride if you’re feeling scientific).
- Want variety? Mix in fruit juices from Walmart, Skeleton City-style, for a little flavor adventure.
- Supplements: Take a daily multivitamin, vitamin D3, K2, calcium, and magnesium—because you’re not just sweet, you’re smart.
- Cost: About $4 a day. That’s less than a truck stop burger and a whole lot easier on your arteries.
Why Sugar Fast? Why Not Just Water Fast or Do the Sugar Diet?
Sweet Truckin’ tried water fasting and made it five days before his dreams turned into a non-stop buffet. Sugar fasting, on the other hand, kept him energized, alert, and (mostly) sane while the pounds melted away. For someone with a sedentary job and limited food options, it was the perfect tool—a “reset button” that didn’t require chewing, cooking, or willpower levels only monks possess.
And here’s the thing: The Sugar Fast isn’t the same as the Sugar Diet. The Sugar Fast is Tier I of Skeleton City’s Pyramid—a rapid, short-term strategy. The Sugar Diet is a whole-food, long-term vegan lifestyle. The Sugar Fast is your jumpstart; the Sugar Diet is your cruise control.
The Results: 31 Pounds in 30 Days—No Joke
You read that right. Sweet Truckin’ lost 31 pounds in 30 days.
- No significant muscle loss (though he admits he’s not exactly pumping iron at truck stops).
- He’s maintained his weight loss since February, using the Sugar Fast as a maintenance tool.
- He’s living proof you can lose weight and still enjoy life on the road.
How Does Sweet Truckin’ Keep the Weight Off?
Sustainability is the name of the game. Sweet Truckin’ doesn’t believe in crash diets or endless restriction. Here’s his maintenance routine:
- Sugar Fast as needed: After a big weekend or before a vacation, he’ll do a Sugar Fast day or two.
- Regular, balanced meals at home: Think veggies, the occasional steak or lobster (he’s not vegan, but you can be), and yes, even beer and jujubes.
- Supplements: Always, to cover any nutritional gaps.
- Moderation and flexibility: No stressing about the scale, no crash dieting before events. He just enjoys life and uses the Sugar Fast when he needs a reset.
He wishes he’d documented his process more thoroughly, like the fasting YouTubers of today, but he’s happy to share what he’s learned and encourages everyone to adapt the Sugar Fast to their own needs.
