Det är lätt att känna sig avundsjuk på alla modeller och träningsprofiler i sociala medier med sina ”perfekta” kroppar. Men en bild kan också ljuga, något som modellen Iskra Lawrence nu visar i sina hyllade Instagram-inlägg.

Det är den amerikanska sajten Attn: som uppmärksammat modellens initiativ, där hon vill få folk att sluta jämföra sin kropp mot andras.

Med över 4,5 miljoner följare på Instagram så har modellen Iskra Lawrence minst sagt en bra plattform att sprida sitt budskap på.

I sitt inlägg vill hon visa hur kroppen förändras bara genom sättet man står på. På bilden kan man se Iskra gå från inget ”tigh gap” till ”tigh gap” på endast 30 sekunder.

✨ no thigh gap or thigh gap who cares. We all think we want different things and we should because we are all different, there's no wrong way just be the healthiest & happiest for you. I'll be the first one to tell you pics are all about good lightening and angles. Always remember social medias not real life never let anyone else's pics make you feel insecure about yourself. If you don't look like her and she doesn't look like you that's how it's meant to be. You are meant to be YOU no one else, your body is your home so love and respect it. When you look after it beautiful things happens ✨ #iskralawrence #everyBODYisbeautiful

I bildtexten betonar Iskra att det inte spelar någon som helst roll ifall man har ”tigh gap” eller inte, men att allt handlar om ljus och vinklar när man tar foton.

Vidare så skriver hon att man inte bör jämföra sig själv hemma framför spegeln med modeller, då de får betalt för att lära sig att ”stå rätt” och visa upp sig från sin bästa sida.

Trenden med ”30 second transformation photo” har spridit sig på sociala medier, och flera andra Instagram-profiler visar i inlägg hur enkelt det är att förändra sin kropp på foton.

???? This is not a transformation photo ???? This week I've decided to do the 30 second transformation photo. These pics were taken second apart this morning. On the left my posture is poor, I'm pushing my belly out as far as possible, I adjusted my bottoms to show my gross, unsightly and horrid love handles. These are often concealed by my high waisted pants and bottoms that do fit so much better now. As much as it pains me to showcase these, it also proves that my body isn't perfect and that I still have work to do and fat to lose (I'm working so hard to get rid of my love handles and lower tummy fat. Yes it has dramatically reduced already but it still exists and I'm still insecure about it). On the right I'm standing straight and comfortably. I'm lightly flexing and I've adjusted my bottoms to hide my love handles. I'm thankful for bikini bottoms that now fit well and hide these but I'm also trying to show that they still exist quite a bit and that not everything we see meets the eye here on social media. You can show you best angles and hide your flaws but at the end of the day what we chose to showcase is a reflection of ourselves. My body isn't perfect. I still have imperfections and flaws that I'm slowly learning to be comfortable with. I want to be real and honest and open. Yes I've accomplished a lot, but yes my body still has less than ideal days when it doesn't look its best. Fitness and health is not a fix. It's not a destination. It's a lifestyle. If you force your progress you know who you are cheating?! You. You only cheat you. Yes I like to show my best most of the time but I've also realized by not showing my worst that it only harms myself. Being vulnerable and imperfect is hard but lying to yourself is worse. I know I'm hard on myself, it's a flaw on its own, but I'm slowly learning to be gentle and kind but it starts with being truthful to myself and knowing and understanding my imperfections and realizing that, although they exist, they don't define me. I am not a before picture. I am not an after picture. I am not fat nor am I perfect. I'm flawed. I'm scarred. I'm insecure. But I'm learning and I'm hopeful that one day I'll fully love me ????

Här är en annan användare, ”hdexy6” som hakat på 30 second transformation trenden. Hon skriver ironiskt att hon visar upp sin ”omedelbara viktminskning”.

Det är sällan man ser hela sanningen i bilder på sociala medier och vi tycker det är bra att fler personer som Iskra visar upp ”fusket” som sker i många foton!
