If you combine that with healthy eating, you can lose 40+ pounds.By healthy eating, I mean 1600-1800 calories of fruits, veggies, skinless chicken breast, fish, oatmeal, egg whites, brown rice, etc. and drink LOTS of waterGood luck Back to top jacquelyn s Yahoo User Posted: Sun Jan 06, 2008 9:50 pm    Post subject: swimming is one of the best exersizes you can do!! just eat heatly and keep motivated and you will reach your goal!!!

Swimming is probably the safest exercise for everyone and it requires using pretty much all of the muscle groups. Should take no time at all.You might find by the end of 3 mos. that you are swimming more than 2 miles.Swimming also improves bronchial and lung function. It will make you feel super good all over. Swim in the mornings or before noon to get all day energy. You will know what you enjoy most.Lean meats, chicken and fish are great foods. Eat some veggies everyday. You'll be great!! Enjoy to the fullest!!
