There seems to be as many opinions and misinformation floating around about personal weight that I thought we might share and perhaps open our minds a bit. Here are the questions that I feel will provide useful info:
Age
Sex
Height
Present weight range (many people vary 3-4 lbs over a day)
Ideal weight range for optimum health (your opinion)
Ideal weight range for optimum swimming performance
What steps are you taking, or will you be taking, to lose or
gain the weight difference between present & optimum.

54
M
6'1"
220-224
190-194
182-188
Drastically cut down drinking & desserts; resume active training
go ahead, rub it in
an approximation of your height weight ratio is what I'm striving towards
I weighed around 215 at worlds and I think it would make a world of difference to lose 20 - 25 pounds while maintaining or increasing strength
time will tell, scales don't lie.
