Dan Nied's Super Duper Weight Loss Project: Day 132

Dan Nied's Super Duper Weight Loss Project used to be called Dan Nied's 100 days. It is still a story of a fat guy trying to lose weight in a relatively short period of time. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to email Dan at nieddan@yahoo.com

For all the regular Blogcritics readers, I want to update some news about this little series. First, Blogcritics has asked me to cut entries down from every day to once a week. That is kind of sad, I know. However, I fully agree with them. There are still new entries almost every day on my blog. BC also suggested that I find another name for the series. I kind of liked the irony of "Dan Nied's 100 Days: Day 132," but I settled on "Dan Nied's Super Duper Weight Loss Project" instead, although the BC editors have the power to change it to something else.

So if you were wondering where I went, please relax. I'm still here, and I will be once a week for at least a little while.

Okay, now to today's post.

I really have to apologize here. I've been kind of lazy with the posts this week. Work is freaking crazy right now. It always gets a little bit nuts towards the end of the school year. The good news is that all high school sports in Colorado end Saturday. That means my summer vacation can officially begin on Sunday.

All right, as for the diet, things are okay. Could be better, could be worse. I weighed in on Tuesday to the tune of 286 (before working out; 285 after.) That is phenomenal. So we are happy with that, no doubt. However, there has been a real problem getting to the gym this week. I managed to slip in 20 minutes of elliptical on Tuesday, but had a work engagement pull me away prematurely.

So I can go one of three ways on this. First, I can give up lifting altogether. Second, I can resume normal working out as soon as possible. Third, I can ratchet up the workouts for the next three weeks and become a stud in the process. I should go for No. 3. I will probably go for No. 2. However, these things have a way of making me do whatever is hardest, so I may end up going to No. 3. By the way, the website that will provide you with a full body workout (for free) is Fitrex.com. Just looking at the workout scares me. That is my option No. 3. That workout would probably give me the best chance of actually getting into shape, but it would also take three hours a day to do. I am still contemplating it.
