Just wanted to see if anyone here has noticed a significant change in their swim times after losing a decent amount of weight (at least 35 or 40 pounds). Did you notice minor time drops or major time drops after you lost the weight? Or did your times stay the same?

I hate the green but I do eat some of it... I now eat a varied diet and have lost a few pounds, 335 lbs in 1998 now 260 lbs but I am not in a hurry. In 1968 I set a BC masters record for the 100 meters LC for my age group which is still on the books.
My prime weight when competeing was 220 lbs. However when I started marathon racing I would go up to 270 lbs in the off season... in 1964 I started the season at 245 and after the last race in Egypt I weighed in at 182 lbs I was a rake. I am gently heading for 235 lbs this year.
