yes, swimming is excellent if you can do it at least 3 times a week.
i ride my bike outdoors around the same circuit 8 miles every single day and in winter jump on small trampoline and also jump rope indoors. i work it so it gives me a negative 400 calories each day---this allows a nice dessert after supper.
you might be surprised to see how much you need to exercise to burn off a certain amount of calories:

the resistance machines are good for building muscle, but not so good for aerobics which i think is very important if you are sedentary most of the day and then exercise for 45min-1hr.
but ANY exercise is better than none.
