I love to swim so much. (I think it’s deplorable the way we pollute our waters with oil spills, toxic dumping and other junk, but that’s a topic for a different day and blog.)

What’s a Plateauing Athlete To Do? A reader recently asked me why, after a number of months on a successful (and sane – something I advocate!) weight loss/exercise plan, she stopped losing weight.
