I take it that is a farmer Jane/jacket ???
Yep, you'll have a few challenging dives ahead of you before you get used to the particular characteristics of copious quantities of neoprene.
One thing you will notice is that at the bottom you're going to feel as if you're overweighted . . . but the fact is, you're not. That's the amount of weight that will be required to make a controllable safety stop upon ascent.
Remember, the correct amount of weight is that which allows you to maintain neutral buoyancy at a safety stop with a depleted tank.
The amount of weight required to get down with that much neoprene, coupled with a full tank, makes the diver require a bit more B/C inflation on the bottom to overcome the neoprene compression and subsequent buoyancy loss.
