    I confess, that's not me. It's just a girl I keep in my basement, feed lots of protein, and make strength train 3 days a week, then take pictures every few weeks.

    And sometimes I make her pose with my husband, friends, and family. The rabbit hole is that deep.

    That's actually sorta terrifying.

    I do what I can.

    Do you ever pimp her out? She is HOT!

    I think what perplexes me more is the fact that someone would be like AHA I do not believe that picture is real, I must scan it into the google machine and prove it and I won't stop until I get to to the bottom of it.....

    I guess maybe I just don't care that much... I'm not here to date someone or marry someone so why do I care if you are Snoopy or Fabio or just yourself.

    When someone is all over the boards claiming to be a high end fitness trainer or a model or something like that (ie basically calling attention to their photo), especially if they are giving out terrible advice or are terribly insulting, it makes you go hmmm. I'm curious by nature.

    Google my picture all you want. I fully stand behind my "drink more orange juice" advice.

    mine was right after my first 5k. I'm proud of that picture. I have lost 20something lbs since then but I'm most proud of that picture.

    I can see why, you are gorgeous! I agree, the farther I get into my journey the more photos I want to be in/take of myself. I guess I shall call it confidence. :love:

    People always think that I'm actually a husky. I mean I'm pretty sure if I had paws, I'd be typing something like:

    Haven't you all heard of Google reverse image search? Drag and drop the pic and the world is revealed

    Now I have. Interesting!

    no. People are who they want to be. Some are cats. Some are quotes. Some are well known celebrities. Some are their inspiration. Some really are themselves. I don't question why people choose the pictures they choose. All I know is I will always be myself.

    Those are not my lips. :))

    It seems that privacy concerns are big nowadays.

    My weight is probably the most intimate and shameful thing I deal with. But I personally worry that you can google me and find out the most intimate details of my life.

    I want the support but I also want to be anonymous.
