Interesting point.

Ok, here's some actual numbers. I've lost about 15kg during the last 6 months, with a combination of exercise and dieting. My current static is at about 95% of the best times I used to hit about a year ago. I can come withing 10-20 seconds of my pb, but never quite reach it.

However, I'm still very much physically active and hardly ever go to the pool fully recovered, so I expect I can do similar performances, or hopefully even slighlty more, than I used to as I prepare for an event and stop cardio.

But at least there is no dramatic jump, as 15kg of fat lost would maybe suggest.
