Hey Everyone!
I've noticed that it was so much easier to loose weight with running, as opposed to swimming. It seems even though i'm swimming hard, the 13 or so pounds that I need to loose haven't budged. When I was running, my diet didn't have to be really clean...in fact I ate pizza at least once a week, and found that it helped me during high mileage. During running, my weight was very low despite the pizza habit. While swimming makes me hungrier, and I'm probably burning more calories per workout, the weight loss isn't there.
Why is this?
Thanks,
Jerrycat

Here's some news for anyone interested in nutrition, recipes, etc.
The USA Swimming Web Site has a section for Masters and Fitness swimmers, and we have a recipe of the month.
This month's recipe is called Fulton Street Fisherman's Stew, and it is a hearty, easy-to-prepare, reduced-calorie, tomato-based dish that's great for warming up on a chilly winter evening.
