What would cause my feet and hands to swell to the point my feet don't even look like feet. i am very active and eat a healthy diet. lots of water.

Lots of water: Swelling in the hands and feet can be due to water retention. If you are taking in more water than you get rid of your body can deposit the extra in your hands and feet. I recommend seeing your primary care doctor to discuss this issue.
