I have no qualms about the swimsuit - it's the public pool that puts me off... having to swim about with all those other people and their feet...
I used to swim regularly in a local pool, and I'd also regularly have a chest infection. I stopped swimming and the chest infections stopped. Seems I'm sensitive to the amounts of chlorine they use to counteract the amout of people who still insist on using the pool as a toilet. The day I saw a baby sized turd float past (babies aren't allowed in the main pool and it was a tiny turd as from a baby, not a baby-sized turd... not even a beer and pie diet can produce baby-sized turds), was the last day I went to that swimming pool!
Anyhoo... the weight loss continues. My scales say it's a loss of 10lbs so far, but I didn't make it up the road to the official weigh in... so I don't know officially if I made my target. I don't care, I got my half stone sticker last week and they're not taking it away from me!!!
