Surviving 10 laps

After my usual Sunday morning of attending church service, Sis and I decided that it was time to burn off a few calories by attempting to swim. After assessing that we were still presentable in our bikinis, we went off for a dip in the pool.

We said we would do 10 laps since we won't have that much of time before the boys ended their baptism class. Boy, I had barely finished 4 laps when I was panting like mad. By the time I finished 6 laps, I felt like I was about to foam at the mouth . And towards the end of it (yes, I did 10 laps!), I really felt like vomitting.

The I-want-to-puke kind of feeling persisted even as I showered. My hands actually shook when I reached for the shower foam.

I can't believe that my stamina had gone that bad. What ever happened to this one time sportswoman?? How am I going to lose that 3 kg if I could barely do 10 laps!!
