Gastric Sleeve Well I did it. I've swam!

[Mixman]

I thought balls to it! I went to the pool this morning despite being very self conscious!

In the pool at 7:30 this morning, 20 lengths I did. A bit tired but thought was OK. Till I got out of the pool and my legs were like jelly I nearly toppled over lol

Now I've just back off my 28 mile bike ride and feel brilliant.

I'm exhausted just reading that!! Puts my 30 mins on the wii fit to shame!! x

 

[phatmomma]

Mickie, your keep fit routine is killing me man! I feel exhausted every time i read it..... Well done on the swim though seriously, am sure having more than one string to your bow (fitness wise) is gonna be a good thing x

 

[Mixman]

Yeah, I'm not going to do this all the time! It will kill me!

I think having swimming available is good for when I've had short rides or the weather is bad!

It's the first time in over 11 years that I have been!

 

[ChrystalK]

Totally puts me to shame when I only walk half the way to work. I so with I could ride a bike.

 

[Mini]

Have to say I find you very inspirational between all the cycling you are doing and now swimming!

Well done:happy096:

Swimming is ace chuck, and you will be amazed how many more lengths you can do each time you go

 

[LisaG]

Oh I bet it felt fantastic! I can't wait to get back into swimming. I never really let my weight stop me but been told not to swim for 8 weeks post op. I love going to the heated open air pool early in the morning whilst it's still cold...mmmm.

 

[karenlouisemee]

Well done you. i really want to learn to swim when im a little slimmer and have more confidence

 

[dottychic]

I love swimming, I just wish I didnt care what people think and could go more often. When I am slim it will deffo be something I will do more x
