Went swimming for the first time this year. All my life I could just float without moving. Well not anymore! Now I sink like a rock! I never knew swimming took so much effort!

    LOL That's great. My bf keeps taking references from Frank in it's Sunny in Philadelphia saying he just floats around "like a cauliflower"

    Too funny...I'd never considered that could be an issue. Interesting, the things we discover after losing a significant amount of weight.
