Death to all Noodlers!

And what exactly is the frog being punished for? I have to wonder why they bother. I've been swimming off and on since Feb, and 3-6 days a week for the last 6 weeks or so. I've lost over 30 pounds since I started, and I bet some of the noodlers would be lucky to have shed 2#. Every day I see somebody floating there and I think they are wasting their time. The women anyways. Hanging ouy but not so much on the exercising part. There is a large dude in the pool a lot, and I don't think I've seen him with a noodle, and he does laps. Slowly and surely, but ALWAYS moving. In fact, I think he's doing more over time. Noodle perchers I think are just socializing, but my experience is that they stick to the open swim deep end out of the way. Guess I'm lucky. Now if I get just get them to stop running the heaters while I'm trying to swim. Hot, cold, hot, cold, hot, flip, repeat. Pick one already. -eric 30 lbs!!! That's excellent! Way to go! I avoid my pool now when they have noodle classes, but a couple of weeks ago I came to swim just after they finished. I hadn't seen them in months. There were a few new faces there, but I tell ya, the "regulars" looked exactly like they did the last time I saw them. No change at all, no thinner, no muscle tone. When I see individual noodlers in the pool while I'm swimming, they rarely seem to be exerting themselves. I often think how much better off they'd be if they just picked up a kickboard and kicked some laps. And as a matter of fact, several lap swimmers I've chatted with lately have mentioned to me that they've been losing weight since they started--one lost 21 lbs, another has lost 10, and I forget some of the others. These folks aren't very fast in the pool and their strokes leave a lot to be desired, but they're getting results.
