I am a former football player, power lifter, who has put on 150+ lbs since I graduated High School 10 years ago.
I had just joined 24 hour fitness to undo my 10 year repeat of the freshman 15. I did so because they have a pool and I'm hoping that can turn swimming into a hobby that will help me do so. Now, I've been doing some reading on the internet and from what I've been reading, it appears as if some put on body fat??????????
I need your thoughts por favor.

We put that extra weight on because we continue to eat as if we are still competing and training. Eat smaller meals, walk and swim. I was 335 lbs and had laid off for over 25 years. I am now 250 and heading for 235, my goal weight. I have not worked out very much but walk everyday and a little swimming. It has taken me 10 years to lose this weight but just 15 more lbs to go. I am in no hurry.
