Because I had got a knee injury while exercising, the Dr. banned me from all lower body cardio--that was so sad for me. So I started swimming again. I went to our community pool to swim laps (well, pull laps since I couldn't kick). I finally got the ok to kick after 1 month of not using my legs!)Since swimming is the only cardio I can do, I have wanted to be able to swim at home. With our 3 foot deep, 15 foot across pool, that was not going to happen. I was starting to brainstorm and I thought if I could just tie a rope around my waist and anchor myself to the side, I could have my own ednless pool. I looked online to see if there was a swim belt that would be soft around my waist and I found this amazing invention. It's a bungee cord attached to a soft swim belt. It is amazing! Not exactly the same feel as swimming, but it is an amazing workout and only cost $15! I saved $19, 985+ by not buying one of those expensive current pools. And I love swimming in my own backyard surrounded by the beautifukl flowering trees and palm trees!
So, I love the show biggest loser. And everytime I swim I can just picture myself on the treadmill with Jillian trying to pull me back with the bungee.

Cohen: "I love her swimming." HaHa. You are such a clever girl with your swim belt, that is awesome!
Lindsay, I'm so impressed! First, that you are so diligent in your exercising, and second that you came up with such a creative way to do it! Who knew you could swim laps in such a little pool? Way to go!
Genius. Seriously, Joe said he wants one of those. And Lindsay, you look so graceful, even swimming in such a small pool! :)
