Seats in 2022 (not Refreshed)

sbbamafan · May 5, 2022

I was about 205# until a diet about 18 months ago and dropped to about 175. Over the last three weeks since this 'back thing' which now is requiring surgery, I have dropped some more. I was 168 at the doc yesterday. Maybe my wife being about 120# is the problem for her, too. They need some 'skinny people' truck seats now that I am one....I haven't weighed this since I think my sophomore year of high school.

I'd like to know about the diet. How did you lose it?

My daughter, for medical reasons, needed to go on a very low carb diet. She was a bit resistant so my wife said " we will do it with you", and that was pretty much it. I lost close to thirty pounds, and my wife and daughter each lost 10 or 15. We really did not do it for weight loss - it was just a side effect, and not a bad one. We were not fanatical and did not cut out all carbs but almost all of them. No more rice or french fries or bread but my wife was very creative in finding other recipes and things to eat. We have not gone hungry.

My 2019 Trail Boss seats were horrible. So bad I hated driving the truck. I found some gel seat pads on Amazon that were pretty decent and made a difference. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MZJGYZ7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I was afraid the heated seats wouldn't work as well with the pad on them, but it seems to actually work better because it heats up the whole pad. I finally sold the trail boss because 98% of my driving is on the highway and I tow, so my new 2021 LTZ with the 6.2 and no Z71 package drives/rides like a dream. It's also a standard bed vs. short bed, so that also helps for ride comfort I believe. Also, the seats in my new truck actually seem better to me, but I may have just got use to them. I still use the gel seat pad, but I really don't have to anymore. The seats also have the safety seat option, which was a comfort concern from what I'v been reading here, but it hasn't been an issue. I weigh around 295, so that may or may not be a factor. I haven't heard much about the '22 refresh seat yet, but I imagine they're still the same.
