Not so swimmingly…
So, I’ve decided it’s time to get shot of the Buddha belly. Can’t really call it a beer belly any more, really.
With my particular health issues, I decided that swimming would be the best idea. After all, I used to go swimming every Sunday afternoon (advantage of living close to a public swimming pool). OK, that was about 30 years ago, but it’ll be fine, right? Go swimming for an hour, that’ll be easy.
Except when I went swimming as a teenager, it was more like just messing around in the pool. I probably swam for a grand total of 10 minutes then had to give up.
Going to keep going with it, though.

Keep at it. You’ll get better. Maybe do one lap breast stroke then back stroke which is a bit more relaxing. Go slow. <3
@celestialflutter backstroke is my favourite, but I was sharing a lane with someone and it’s not too good for that

maybe you could join something called Aqua fit? then you can exercise with others and have fun too.

Swimming is great exercise and it’s challenging to get going on any fitness program. Good for you! One of my ex-boyfriends started swimming on the water polo team in high school and has swum before work every single day in all the years since then. He is in incredibly great shape!
