Hi all I am new here. I am wondering what is a good routine to swim and lose weight? I am close to 250lbs right now and don't look good fat LOL. was doing some research and found an article written by USMS' own Bill Volckening (if he posts here, hi Bill!) that talks about how he lost weight by swimming and changing his diet, but he don't talk about the swimming much, just the eating. LOL and i've had enough eating.
His story is very inspriational though and I want tofollow suit! I've started a diet but I need help with swiming! ANy suggestions?? ThxU!
You clearly have taken this entirely too personally. The discussion focused on fit and obese.
But, as long as we are taking this personally, why can't we be critical of obesity? It is a horrible health crisis. The many health issues caused by obesity impact every aspect of our lives - increased health premiums, lost work productivity, premature aging and death but possibly not nuclear armageddon. Have you seen the stats on childhood obesity (those that aren't impacted by pregnancy)? You think that's not a huge problem for America?
Look, I'm no slim jim by any means and I applaud your efforts.
