So....over the weekend, I texted OVM about something....no reply.
A few hours later I call....no answer.

As soon as he gets a load yesterday, my phone rings...lol. "What ya doing"?

I said, "well, I delivered here in Memphis this morning and dispatch just called with a load going to CT or somewhere.. 1,000 plus miles :D " There is a silence from OVM, then he tells me he is loaded and heading for the yard.

Im still in Memphis...never was a CT load :D

Cuz, 28 pounds is a fantastic start. You may not really notice much change but your body does! Nick and I are both down about 30 since January and you notice subtle little.changes. Don't look at it as pounds but as a percent of your overall weight. You can do it!!

Someone tried to scam me last night calling my motel room asking for me personally to the motel clerk called me pretending to be the motel clerk saying their systems have crashed and they need my info again. He already knew my name and address. So thought kinda legit. He went on I verified everything till he started asking about my credit card then I became suspicious. Then he asked me for it then I told him I will come downstairs to give it to him then he back peddled saying he can handle it over the phone. Well I then gave him a fake number and he said it was accepted. Went downstairs talked to the clerk who spoke middle eastern and the guy on the phone spoke plain english I knew it was a scam. I canceled my card just in case. Spoke to the manager said this happened a few days ago to someone else. The guy knew his name and address as well. Not making any claims but we think we know who it came from from and what company. Our two stories and probably many others all originate back to the same place. Not a single person knows what hotel im staying at not even my parents or friends but a certain company/people do. Best believe someone is gonna get a ear full

someone within the hotel chain or an ex employee with access to room bookings....I'd bet. Good catch

Yep, or even worse someone still working at the hotel is running a scam with someone outside of it.
