    This is not facebook. Pictures of your body are more appropiate than your buddies at a club/bar.

    Well, as proven by a group of my friends, people who put their amazing body pictures still offend some rightious people here on this Fitness site... Confusing and perplexing but oh so true!....

    Only if it is a lady and someone somewhere thinks it is too "sexy". rolleyes.gif

    The name fitness is even on the website. Having actual body pictures benefits a lot since we can see where you stand on your progress and how hard you've worked. Having a whole bunch of pictures of a person covered doesn't let us see anything and doesn't help at all. Those belong somewhere else.

    When I want feedback on my progress, I post photos in a thread or my blog.

    My profile pictures/avatars are more of a glimpse at my personality. Right now, that includes my body. Sometimes it's me being social. Sometimes my face. Sometimes a pet. Sometimes a tattoo. Sometimes just a picture that will make me smile when I see it every time I come to this site.

    Personally, I'd rather see a photo of someone enjoying their life than some grainy shot taken with a phone in a bathroom mirror.

    My picture is of me getting married. I guess that is considered social. I have it up there because I can really see the difference between when I started and now in that picture. It is motivation for me.

Having a whole bunch of pictures of a person covered doesn't let us see anything and doesn't help at all. Those belong somewhere else.

    This site also has sections specifically dedicated to "chit-chat, fun & games", "recipes", and "motivation & support" - all of which require social sharing.

    Some people are losing weight for a wedding, a high school reunion, a competition at work or with a friend or family member.... These are things we talk about with our "friends" here and are part of our weight loss journey. We are not all here to get "ripped" or even thin for that matter! Some of us just want to lose SOME weight to get healthier or learn healthier ways of cooking and living. Some of us have decided we just want a change, to feel better about ourselves and aren't looking to post photos of our bodies EVER - because that's not how we gauge our progress.

    If seeing photos of bodies motivates you then fantastic! Seek out others like yourself and friend those people - make THEM your support system here.

    Us others will continue to share our lives with our online "friends" here and that may just very well include posting social photos - it works for lots of us, even if it doesn't work for YOU!

    seriously......

    I almost thought this post was a joke until I saw that you were for real. It's really not that serious, so long as everyone is working toward a goal of being healthy:)) We still need to have a life outside of fitness. This is a place to also chat and make friends and get to know one another. Life can already be uptight enough. Lighten up would ya:flowerforyou:
