    Please add me! I will try to add a picture by the end of the week (need to find my bathing suit!). I only want to lose another 5lbs or so, but I need to get toned.

    Bell... what are you talking about? The bathing suit I am wearing in the picture is my goal bathing suit. It’s what I want to wear come summer. I’m not sure what your problem is, but take it elsewhere.

    Hi! I'm new and determined. I've been on MyFitnessPal for a long time but mostly just to track foots and calories. I want support friends. Feel free to add me. I'll post a bathing suit pic in a couple days!

    Hi there.I think it sounded a bit abrupt the way you spoke in this msg to the person who wanted to join your challenge but were confused by what pic you requested for everyone to post.It was confusing the way you worded it.I will look to join another challenge just because of your unkind attitude with interested participants.

    Hi Cap1670.

    I'm just seeing this. I don't have a problem, I just thought it was shots and a sports bra. Sorry.

    Goal? Eh. I could post an old pic of myself ripped.

    But I find shame and humiliation more motivational.

    Hello guys. I haven’t posted recently because I have had a gain. No loss. Cap, as far as my response to bell I think it was appropriate. After explaining what I meant, she went on to say I wasn’t wearing mine. It was not her place to be the judge of if my bathing suit is/was good enough for my own post. That’s all I have to say about that. Nobody seems to be posting in the group so I think it’s cool if we just use the thread. I will invite you guys who said you wanted to join. The only benefit of the group is the photos are more private so there are less concerns about trolling/anyone stealing the pics.

    Dude. I wasn't judging. I was just confused.

    Dude. After I explained what I meant the comment you made came across to me as counterproductive with an undertone of bad attitude. Why say “oh well that’s not what you’re wearing.”? What is the point of making a comment like that? I think it’s the wording. If you would have said “Oh I didn’t realize that was your bathing suit” I probably wouldn’t have side-eyed it so hard. So did I perceive it wrong? Perhaps. But for future reference in your life, when anyone does something that makes them insecure like takes a picture of their body they don’t like in a bathing suit with their belly showing, even if it doesn’t look like a bathing suit to you, maybe the only vibes you should put out there are supportive/or positive. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I wish you well on your fitness journey.
