__________________  260/215/180 Male - 36 y/oIt never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!! I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!       |

40 meters? How many meters in a foot? I can swim forever doing the side stroke of the dog paddle... but I don't like putting my head underwater due to clausterphobia... and the fact that I can't breathe water... I was a self learner too... 3rd grade best friend had swimming pool and we just sorta taught ourselves completely unsupervised as well... lol! We would challenge eachother to see how far we could go in the deep end... finally we were both swimming like fish! ah, good times, good times... liz

I got taught by a bossy older girl on holiday when I was about 6!! my grandparents had taken me away for 2 weeks to Majorca, and they thought it was fun to watch this other girl keep making me jump in the pool again and again - I can still hear her voice even now "no Jane, get back and do it again"!! lol I suppose I have her to thank really for getting me to swim!!!

Like a fish! In fact, that was my nickname in college. I used to swim 3 miles a day then, non-stop. If I had kept it up, I might not have gotten so fat. Sigh. |
