Hi Nicolette
You have a pool and a bike, and so you can certainly make use of both. You just have to commit, it sounds as though you are there at the point where you want to take control and make some chages, so that's great, now you just have to go for it. I suggest you should check out the Fitness page of this site, click on "Programmes" and then choose one of these cycle based programmes. This allows you to make use of your bike. On the other days, you can swim. You can even cycle and swim on the same day if you wish. The main thing is to sit down, come up with a routine and then say to yourself that no matter what, the time between 5 pm and 6 pm is yours and you are going to use it for exercise and training. You have to make time in this way, time does not just happen, it has to be made, so take control and make it and I'm sure that in a few months, things will be looking great.
Good luck
