I just want to let you know that no matter how overweight you are, I believe you can always still lose it and get back into the kind of shape you want.....I have mentioned here several times before that I can personally vouch for this b/c about 18 months ago when I started back into swimming again (after an 18 year break), I was up to 275 pounds and feeling horrible.....By SCY Nationals last May I was already down to 185 pounds.....So far I have simply been maintaining that weight......I think this is the ideal weight for me....It is still about 10 pounds over what I weighed in college....but none-the-less, I feel really comfortable now at that weight. As long as you workout consistently and eat a healthy balanced diet, I think you will be suprised at how fast the weight will come off. Good Luck and don't give up!
