@shadow2soul Usually thinspiration are pictures or quotes to inspire people to be thin. The majority of thinspo is created and used by people with eating disorders.
I prefer Fitspiration and there is an entire thread dedicated to real users who created their own inspirational photos.

I've heard of Fitspiration and I remember when that thread was started . I did google thinspiration, but the results that came up were umm...welll...ya...not my thing. I was hoping the OP might offer an explanation that might be a different perspective than what I saw from google.0 -
As usmcmp says, "thinspiration" or "thinspo" is usually associated with images related to the proana movement (promotion of anorexia nervosa as a positive lifestyle choice). It is not a good term to use unless one is trying to promote eating disorders.
I didt know this guys it's just a word my sister used who's a fitness freak! I didn't realise, Sorry x

I'm glad to read that you weren't asking for "thinspo" ! Unfortunately there are a lot of people on here that are looking for and gravitate to others w/ anorexia/ eating disorders. It's sad.0

I'd like to recommend Go Kaleo to you: https://gokaleo.com/ Check out her facebook, too. She's starting a movement called fitspo2.0, which is more focused on TRUE health and strength, and not twiggy girls in strange yoga poses claiming fitspo or thinspo. I also like her general approach - very moderate, eat food, move your body, be happy.0
