In cycling, it is a widely held view that losing weight yields faster times (yes, I read the steroid thread). How about in swimming?
I could imagine a theory where carrying a few extra ice cream sundaes in swimming might make you faster due to the increase in bouyancy. In fact, I had this very theory after my freshman year in college. Hey! Who doesn't like ice cream.

This is probably a bad idea...Amanda Beard didn't look to heavy in her photo shoot and I would love to be as fast as her.
