One thing is for sure, I am obese...
During the last few months I was eating too much and at one point I decided that I needed to try to get in shape...
I've been on a diet for a week and I have also decided to add some physical exercise...
What I am planning to do is to continue dieting and go swimming twice a week...
Being on a diet is not easy at all but I am starting to see that I used to eat when I was bored or driven by false hunger...
Regarding going to swimming I decided that if I had to do some excercise why not doing something diving-related ???
When I took the Rescue Diver class I had a hell of time being not fit at all and I have always thought that being not able to save someone due to the fact that I am not fit could drive me mad...
My goal is also to swim 400 mtrs in at least 11 minutes which is the minimum requirement to pass the Dive Master class...
I do not want to take the DM class but just in case...
I decided to take a course with a coach because I need to be controlled and because I want to improve my technique...
One thing that I do not like too much will be next friday when my first lesson will take place and when I will have to discuss with the coach about what I want to do...
Knowing that I will not be able to swim for a very long time is something I cannot stop thinking about and makes me nervous...
It hurts to have 150 dives under my belt and not being able to swim for a reasonable amount of time...
Ok, I feel a little bit better now, maybe it was the right time to write this message...
Sorry for my bad english and feel free to add your comments...
