After watching my son in taekwondo for a couple of years, I enrolled in an 
adult class at his school. At the same time, the school brought in a 
nutritionist to give a series of seminars on healthy eating with low 
glycemic index foods. Three taekwondo classes a week and the change in my 
eating habits made a dramatic difference in my energy level and body shape 
within just a few weeks. I worked at home, so I enjoyed getting out of the 
house during the day to go to a lunchtime class. I also enjoyed the 
interaction with the other students and learning & mastering new skills 
for each new belt. 

When I changed jobs, unfortuately, I wasn't able to go to the noon class 
anymore. I tried the evening class for a while, but was unhappy giving up 
my family time, which was reduced already by going from a part-time 
telecommuting to full-time outside the home schedule. But I really enjoyed 
having a regular exercise routine and did not want to give that up, so I'm 
now going to the gym several mornings a week. I like getting up early & 
feel like I'm getting a good start to the day. And I'm not sacrificing any 
family time because I'm back home & showered by the time anyone else gets 
up. 

Good luck with your swimming--I hope you enjoy it!
