This Woman Took Two Different Photos in the Same Outfit to Prove How Deceptive Social Media Is

Nowadays, photos we see on social media do not really represents reality. Others pose in ways that could make them look better even make use of the technology just to look good than they really are. These were the matters pointed out by Rini Frey, a social media influencer, in her instagram post.

Frey posted two photos of herself in Instagram showing how your body can look very differently depending on the angle you shoot a photo as well as how you project. Both were taken on the same day while dressed in the same outfit. One photo shows(on the left) Frey flexing in her underwear marked “my body”. The second image(on the right) marked “also my body” shows Frey sitting in the same outfit.

The pictures of “perfect bodies” you see on Instagram... don’t let them get you down. Most of them don’t represent reality and if they do, it doesn’t mean that these bodies belong to a healthy and happy human. It’s just what we are made to believe, but it’s mostly not true. Our bodies are pretty incredible machines that never ever take a break. Day in day out, minute after minute, from birth to death, our bodies do the work without ever resting. Pumping blood through our veins, making our heart beat in our chest, allowing us to move, drive, walk, travel, see, smell, hear, taste and FEEL love, happiness and positive energy. So, why do we as a society put all our focus on how little fat needs to sit under our skin, how we can make our muscles pop, how we can shape our body in a way that isn’t natural or how we can hold back from feeding our body for as long as possible? 🤔 As I’m posting this, I am placing a hand on my heart and thanking my body for sticking with me through years of self-punishment, self-loathing, starvation, stuffing it with food, purging food, beating it down and destroying it with way too much exercise. Thank you, body, for never letting me down, even though I always used to think you did. I was wrong and I’m sorry. I don’t care what you look like as long as you are healthy and happy. . . . What are you thanking your body for today? . . . _______________________________________ Undies: @dearkates #healthtips #selflove #bodyacceptance #edrecovery #recoveryisworthit #prorecovery #bodypositive #bodyposipanda #buzzfeed #selfmagazine #womenempowerment #embracethesquish #bodytransformation #yycfitness #bodyimageissues #loveyourskin

According to Frey, photos of "perfect bodies" we see in instagram don't represent reality and healthy happy human. "It’s just what we are made to believe, but it’s mostly not true.", she wrote. "Our bodies do the work without ever resting.Pumping blood through our veins, making our heart beat in our chest, allowing us to move, drive, walk, travel, see, smell, hear, taste and FEEL love, happiness and positive energy.

In an interview with Health Magazine, Frey said the she felt motivated to share this inspiring post after getting a massive outreach from her followers. "I get so many DMs from young girls saying that they hate their bodies and I believe a big part of it is comparing themselves to 'perfect bodies' they see on Instagram," she says. "Our bodies deserve our love and respect, instead of picking it apart every day."

“As I’m posting this, I am placing a hand on my heart and thanking my body for sticking with me through years of self-punishment, self-loathing, starvation, stuffing it with food, purging food, beating it down and destroying it with way too much exercise,” she continued. “Thank you, body, for never letting me down, even though I always used to think you did.
