I'm a 25 yr old female weighing 195 lbs, 5'5". I know I'm overweight and out of shape. I was a college athlete (softball) and a catcher, so I'm quite muscular, but a bit limpy from being out of shape.
I was just wondering if anyone else would be willing to give their height/weight/age so I can get an idea of what we all are like?

i'm 5'7", 155, up from 140 just barely 2 months ago, yikes! my body has added a layer of fat to take the place of a wetsuit (a pretty thick wetsuit!).
everyone's body is different, but in my experience, swimming does not help me lose weight. at least not the type of swimming i do (slow, long distance swimming). for that i need to do something higher impact, like running.
