So, how many of you would maybe be a little shy of meeting someone from here because your pics aren't really exactly how you look? I notice all the angles showing of certain benefits, but maybe, there's more to the story there?

Just curious.

    I think women would be fooled by your pic. They will think your arms are REALLY long!

    Nope - I look just like my pics. Better in fact because IRL I would have on make-up and heels and not be all sweaty from the gym.

    Plus there are no pics of my butt... which is phenomenal!

    I actually don't like pics, I tend to look bad in them... I like to "think" I'll look better in person , not worse. BUT who knows? Haven't met anyone on here. Yet. But I get what you are saying about the angles...they can be deceiving at times. But hey, we are on here for a reason. To get healthy and look and feel better about ourselves...with that, the pics WILL improve naturally.

    i would say i am a fair enough representation of my picture in real life... bar the fact my hair is usually poker straight.. an hour, some seriously heated rollers and a lot of hairspray needed to look exactly like that!!!!

    What you see is what you get.... so no, not afraid to meet anyone from here in person. If anything, I look far better in person, but then you'd have to meet me, to be the judge of that. :-)

    I have met about a dozen people off mfp from all over, so am not shy about it and represent myself as I am, my photos are all me, untouched, I have a variety of close up and full length photos (I try to keep them current), and my personality online is the same as if you met me. I dont know if people are fooled by photos made to look a certain way. And so what really, we all want to look our best but its who we are inside that matters the most, I would rather be liked for who I am than how I look. We are all here to either look better or maintain our looks (via fitness and eating right). Photos might draw you in to making a friend request, but its the person inside with a great personality, caring heart, great sense of humor, and their random acts of kindness toward their fellow mfp'rs, that is what holds your interest and is the most important part.
