What's life been like for Noah Galloway after "Dancing With the Stars"? One word: busy. Galloway, an Alabama Army veteran and double amputee, earned fame in 2015 on the ABC reality series. Things have been going nonstop ever since for Galloway, 34, a Shelby County resident and devoted father of three. He's been juggling speaking engagements, a book project, another reality series, a new house, sponsorship deals and more. Galloway — who recently won our poll for Alabama's favorite reality star — usually keeps fans updated via social media. If you've been following him lately on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, a fairly clear portrait emerges.

He's still commited to mega-fitness.
"Great workout at the @alabasterymca this morning," Galloway said in a recent post. "Cause it started off with me feeling like a beast parked next to a Miata. #motivation #whateverittakes"

He's been traveling. A lot.
"I don't know why people complain about flying...I find it very relaxing. #eastcoasttowestcoast," Galloway said.

He improvises at airports.
"Happy to find a Delta Charging Station in the airport for my leg," Galloway said. "May not be what they intended it for, but it's a lifesaver for me right now. #NextStopChicago"

He's learned to navigate Uber.
"Got my first Uber by myself," Galloway said. "Pretty excited about it. Told the driver that and he said with disgust, 'congratulations.' Haha. I like him. He's my first. I'll never forget him. Might even try and hug him when we get to my destination. Not sure how he'll react."

He filmed a new reality series, "American Grit."
"So thankful to work with these people. #AmericanGrit," Galloway said.

Cigars with John Cena? That happened.
"Well can you believe it was @johncena I had my 1st cigar with and not Robert Herjavec?? #AmericanGrit," Galloway said.

He stays in touch with friends from "DWTS."

He's been working on a book.
"Last few days between kids, workouts, life and lunch, I've had my friend Rebecca in town to finish up my upcoming book," Galloway said. "I chose her to help me because she knows me so well and is an incredible writer. I can't wait to get this book done...and we are under a deadline that is quickly approaching. Stay tuned for more on this crazy adventure that will share parts of my life that most aren't aware of and hopefully inspires others in the process."

He's a valued client at the Herjavec Group.
"What an incredible time I've had here in Canada," Galloway said. "Seeing my friend @robert_herjavec was great as always. But having him ask me to speak to his company was truly an honor. Had an amazing time and met even more incredible people."

He's in demand as a motivational speaker.
"Great time last night in Knoxville with the Tennessee Veterans Business Association's 6th annual event," Galloway said. "Thank you Jon Williams and everyone involved for having me as y'alls keynote speaker."

He knows a teaching moment when he sees it.
"One of the best Thanksgivings ever," Galloway said. "Used our location as a learning experience with my kids. 'Life is about living. Choose your goals and go after them. You want to sit atop that mountain? Say it, train for it, then do it. You want to make a difference in people's lives? Decide how you can positively help others, then make it happen.' #noexcuses #gallowaysontour."

Photos with fans? No problem.
"This morning the kids and I ate breakfast at Cracker Barrel. I couldn't turn down a request to take a pic with their lovely staff," Galloway said.

Photos with other celebrities? Bring it.
"Hung Out with @theeveplumb last night," Galloway said. "Most remember her as Jan Brady but she will also star in @gogrease on #FOX."

He's in the Alabama reality club.
"Just a couple of Bama boys hanging out at the #FOXTCA #TCA16 @realrubenstuddard," Galloway said.

He needs no selfie stick.
"Excited to go to the gym. Like a kid on first day of school," Galloway said. "Is the backpack needed? No. But it goes with the ensemble....jk. I got stuff in it."

The Birmingham Veterans Day parade? A highlight.
"Was an incredible experience as this year's Grand Marshal for the Birmingham Veterans Day Parade," Galloway said. "Couldn't get over all the people cheering my name. Very humbling. Only thing that stole the show from me was having the very lovely @missamericaal trailing me. Who couldn't be happy to see her at the parade? Losing to her was ok by me. ;)"

His deal with Armitron watches raises money for charity.
"So excited for the launch of the Noah Galloway Limited Edition Watch with @armitronwatches tomorrow – #OneWatchManyFaces," Galloway said.

His custom Harley is in the works.
"I've found sometimes when you break something down just to rebuild it from the ground up it returns better than before," Galloway said. "Of course I'm speaking from my own personal experiences. But today I'm also referring to my new 2016 Softtail Slim that @harleydavidson wanted to give me. Now it's at @heartofdixiehd being rebuilt to not only work with my one arm and leg, but to fit the image I have for an awesome bike. I will post its progression as they come. #thankful #heartofdixieharleydavidson #harleydavidson #custombuild."

He's a nature boy, within reason.
"Cold weather, snow, nature, waterfalls....kids get here tomorrow," Galloway said. "I need to convince them this is where we should all live. Like full out nature. Build a shack and live off the land. No xbox or tv or internet...ok maybe we won't do it like that. But definitely vacation here. #mountains #nature #lifeisgood #offthegrid"

He really likes that new house in Shelby County.
"My two boys got up early and said, 'Can we go fishing?' I remembered it was literally in our backyard and said, 'Go right ahead!' So them and two boys in the neighborhood did that. I love living here. #lifeisgood #hfot," Galloway said.

But he needs a decorator, stat.
"Sometimes you gotta think outside the box...or in this case, think with the box," Galloway said. "Why buy nightstands when the Uhaul boxes are paid for and work perfectly? #resourceful #resourcefullycheap"

His children rule.
"2015 couldn't have been better. But now looking to a more incredible 2016," Galloway said. "These three will continue to be priority one. I promise for the new year to give them more time and spend less money on gifts. Money can't buy the gift of time well spent together as a family. #newyearsresolution"

He's been known to hobnob with lunch ladies.
"Lunch with one of my kids," Galloway said. "Lunch ladies were so sweet. Came running out for a pic when they saw me. And lunch was good. #schoollunch."

He poses with pretty women.
"Both @lauramazza_ and @rockinglammakeup make the impossible possible and find away to make me look good on camera," Galloway said. "One on hair and makeup, the other on wardrobe. Very thankful for these beautiful ladies. #AmericanGrit"

But this girl owns his heart.
"When the princess is happy everyone is happy," Galloway said of daughter Rian Elizabeth.

His life is a work in progress.
"We are working hard at building the kids' bunk beds," Galloway said. "Of course I use the term 'we' loosely. Very loosely. In fact I think I'm going to grab some dinner and hope they are done before I get back. #thatswhatfriendsarefor"
