Weight loss and swim times

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 think I am on the best diet. "see food diet" I just got this in an e-mail. I am really starting to try to eat better, like my dryland program. Subject: Important Health Information For all of you who take special care of yourselves..... Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true? A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it. Don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap. Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables? A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass, a green leafy vegetable. And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable slop. Q: Is beer or wine bad for me? A: Look, it goes to the earlier point about fruits and vegetables. As we all know, scientists divide everything in the world into three categories: animal, mineral, and vegetable. We all know that beer and wine are not animal or mineral, so that only leaves one thing, right? My advice: Have a burger and a beer and enjoy your vegetables. Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program? A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain?...Good. Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you? A: You're not listening. Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you? Q: Is chocolate bad for me? A: Are you crazy? HELLO .... Cocoa beans. another vegetable!!! "It's the best feel-good food around!" Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets. One more thing... "When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila and salt. Bill, remember COLOR. Colorful food. I just love to eat. Also, I was told I can eat anything up to 2 hours aftr exercise that's why I swim to EAT. :-)
