hey there! I used to compete when I was younger but I have gained weight since then and would love to use swimming to slim down. Swimming is my cardio of choice. My goal is to participate in a Swim a Thon in April 2005. I haven't been on a team or trained lately (since I was 11)....so I am not familiar on how to do intervals with the clock and all that stuff. Anyway...can you guys help me out? Thanks.

Hey guys and gals!
I am now on my second week of swimming 3 miles a week (MWF). I did a mile today and I felt really slow....but I added in some flip turns...which made me feel great! And I have noticed that I gained a pound. I have been eating well and all....someone told me that when you get back into exercise that your body will put on a couple of pounds but that they will drop off soon. Is that true?
