Wonderful photos - great job! 

HCB - A big Thank You to you!! 

Good for you!! I would love to go kayaking, I've never done it but it looks like great exercise and a great time on the water. 

Well done! Love to see these progress pictures. They always put a smile on my face. It shows that what we are doing is RIGHT, and that we are succeeding. Well done, my friend. Did you post in the Before /After picture thread in the community? You should... 

Wow...you look fantastic! Great work, my friend! Love the kayak, but I would drown myself if I tried one of those. It would tip, and I would be stuck upside down, panicking at the water running into my nose! lol Enjoy! HUGS! <3 

What a transformation! But with probably 50+ pounds gone, is that any surprise??!! Great to "see" you and see who's actually the REAL GG!!! Obviously, you're both water babes!!! And, I know what you mean about not really being into scales back then.... Have a great day knowing you look positively GREAT! 

So glad to finally get a pic of you..you look awesome girl friend...and I bet your doggie girl does want one..Woohooo great job..:O)  

You look great. Well done, GG girl!! 

mars2kids...I am looking forward to years of kayak fun! 

Kingkeld...Thanks, & yes, I thought about posting there, just haven't gotten to it yet, but I do want to share! 

Steff...LOL, that's sooo funny, cause I thought the same thing, BUT, that style of kayak is really stable...honest it is. The trick is to get in it in shallow water, then it's pretty easy to just step in. The nightmare of tipping over & getting back in while in deep water would be just that...a nightmare! 

Sandy701...I do cringe when I look at the before pic...ah, those chunky thighs are what get me. I think doggie-girl loves the water way more than I do. I am way picky-er on the temp of the water, but she doesn't seem to care as much...maybe as she ages she will? 

Heather...thank you very much! 

Bren...LOL, I did a lot of LOL @ doggie-girl...she just didn't get the purpose of the kayak at first. You should have heard her snort & puff when I could paddle faster than she could swim. Quite the tantrum she had, it was hysterical & I laughed so hard. That pic was from right after we got back from our first little jaunt, she followed me quite well even though she wanted to be first. It was so cute as she stood there with her head tilted to the side & her head all puckered...I really did think she was thinking...Hey - No FAIR! I wished I would have had the camera to take a photo of that face! 

nice work. thanks for sharing. I enjoy seeing the accomplishments other's have made. 

I love kayaking, but love to see your transformation even more. It is SO motivating. Thank you for sharing, and nice work!!
