I'm 43, started losing weight a year ago and swimming 9 months ago. Went from 195 to 165 thru nutritional monitoring and swimming. Lower blood pressure too. I'd like to end up around 145/150.
Good resources: Dieting for Dummies (commonsense nutrition) and www.nutritiondata.com (great tool for monitoring nutritional intake - customizable for homemade recipes)
Good luck and PM me if you want to talk more. I'm glad you've found swimming. I love it.
