Ever wonder if the picture people post are really them?

Bit pointless lying, they're only kidding themselves, it's not a dating site lol
this It doesn't really matter does it?0 -
I wonder that too. I've been debating whether to post a pic or not.0

There will always be people on the internet that are being deceptive for some reason, though it's often pretty obvious. Or they may be protecting their privacy, and that is obvious as well.
Otherwise, why would the photos not be them? The photo is obviously a photo of a real person, so why not that person? This is a fitness site, so there will be fit people on the site. If there wasn't, then we would all question the effectiveness of the site. People are going to be in all different phases of their progress.
And it's great when people show any kind of photo of themselves whether it's a selfie or not, a fitness photo or face shot, fully clothed or in something that shows skin, or just a happy photo of them doing something they enjoy.0 -

It's their profile to use as they wish. Keep in mind that people may want to maintain their privacy for a variety of reasons, they may be using an inspirational avatar, they could have self esteem issues that prevent them from posting their real pics, or they could simply be out to deceive.0 -
All my pics are me, feel free to look, point, and laugh.0

welcome to the internet…nothing is real...0 -
what i wonder most about pictures is the amount of selfies that are taken to show a good weight loss, is it too hard to ask someone to take your photo, its always a better picture when you dont have the camera in your hand.
Lol me too, they live a lonely life0 -
<-- Totally me. I am an extremely intelligent boston terrier able to not only type and use the internet, but I'm able to type in English.0

<--- That is totally me. In this picture, my lovely owner is holding me in her hands. I am a loving Calico/Domestic mixed cat and I just want to lose weight like everyone else!0

You never know on the internet.0

I never really thought of that. I am on here to log my food and exercise and to support and have people support me. I actually don't care what picture they put up.0

Ok, after reading through every single page (thanks for the laughs), I'm tempted to download a photo from the internet of a nice fit woman who's body I aspire to have and use it as inspiration!0

I'm told I have a nice smile.
Day made. (said by person with smiley face picture)0 -
Definitely me. Why else would I use a picture of a woman with an opera house on her head?0

I could give two f_ u_ c_ks about what people think of my pictures. I'm here to lose weight and get in shape. I appreciate encouragement from people, but I don't absolutely need it. I'm guessing about 50% of the pics are fake. Don't make me no never mind. I'll still creep, because I'm a creep.
This man has the right attitude0 -
Every pic on my profile is...ME!0

I have been looking at all the photos of beautiful pictures and wonder.....why are they the ones who have so many friends? I have chosen to not post a great picture because I am to afraid that is how I will be judged. Am I the only one that wonders that question?
Mine is my cat, though my real picture is in my pictures. I don't care if I'm judged or not.0 -
"Left click -> Search Google for this image"
It's worked a few times. It'd work for mine!
Don't think it's possible.
Depends on the browser i think. Chrome has the option, Explorer doesn't.0 -

totally me.......if I wanted to B.S., I would have picked a picture of a better looking guy. (No, not "fishing", I'm just a pragmatic person).0 -
gosh who cares? this isn't facebook :P I mean, I have a pic of me in profile pics but the main focus to me isnt what I or others pics look like. If they are Before and Afters I would just comment to say great job0

Me....and my primary motivator to go outside and burn some calories :laugh:0
