Dan Nied's 100 Days: Day 99

Dan Nied's 100 Days is the chronicle of one man's quest to improve his health in 100 days. Feel free to email him at nieddan@yahoo.com with any questions or comments you might have.

What I ate today: We got a lot of typing ahead of us, so nothing too detailed here. But here is the rundown: 3 cans of tuna, 3 servings of fat-free mayo, 4 slices of bread, Footlong Subway Club (no, not all in one meal)

Total calories: 1,315
Total Fat: 18.5 grams

Exercise: None. My scheduling was poor today. Work at 9, impromptu press conference at 11, haircut at noon, lunch at 1, video games at 1:30, extra 4 hours of work at 3, wrote this at 9. I meant to get a workout in there somewhere. I failed. Also, I am a tad bit worried because working out hasn’t been easy to do the last few days. I am not into it right now. Hopefully that will pass.

News: The official 100 days photos will be coming on Monday or Tuesday. I am worried by the amount of chin fat I still have. It seems to have not dwindled a bit. I will get to that next week. Tomorrow, I am weighing in first thing in the morning and then coming back to do a quick blog entry for Day 100. Then I am out of town. Leave comments, congratulations, condolences, cursings or anything else. Please. Feedback is always good. Of course, I will then be back Monday with a regular entry.

All right now, kids. It is time for me to answer questions and comments. Some of these might take a little back knowledge of the blog to really understand, but I’ll try to bring the uneducated along. Settle in and let’s begin.

From: Matt Sussman
Dan, I don't think statutory rape is a recommended weight loss plan. I have no medical backing on that, but just trust me on it.
You're in the homestretch, dude. Slip in under the three bills mark by next week. But don't cut off any limbs to accomplish it. You'll regret it later.

Yeah, I agree. No one ever lost weight through statutory rape. The Subway girl has become something of a muse during this 100 days. Although, I really couldn’t ever think about any kind of relationship with her. Some things are best admired from afar. And while I might entertain myself with mental questions about her life, I feel like she is just an example of what I am working towards. I don’t really want to do anything that would jeopardize my ignorance about her life. I don’t want to know how old she is or what she eats for breakfast or what bands she listens to. She is a metaphor, sort of. She is just someone who I find interesting on a basic level. Nothing sinister in my mind here. But I think everyone needs something like that in their life, right? The random interesting things that make you feel good for a few minutes. I’ll admit it, when she does small things like write my name on the wrapper, I like it. It makes a fella feel good, whether he wants to or not. I’m not gay.
