Woman Challenges Unrealistic Body Standards With Side-By-Side “Real Me Monday” Photos Of Herself (30 Pics)

Left: before I eat. Right: after I eat. Every time.

Looks cute (both of them)

Her smile reminds me of Amy Adams. So genuine. Thank you for being so honest about your body and its natural beauty. I hope I can do the same someday.

I've looked at this entire series, and I sure feel better about myself. That totally works.

I love this. SaggySarah has been doing this for years. Seeing her imperfect skin and cutting scars was an inspiration.

Lets be honest she looks way more attractive in first pictures. Lets all do our best to look like the first and not the second to make this world a better place.

Curious. If she is happy with her true self, she wouldn't post the edited or sucked in version. Just be YOU. Whatever that means 💕

Beautiful - confident woman -keep that up!! We women are practically forced to hide ourselves in pull ups, tuck ins, push ups and beauty products. Menon the other hand walk around with guts hanging out and pants down below waistline-man boobs and no shirts- All women should feel comfortable and confident always. You're beautiful naturally. <3

But she still can rock a belly button ring. I haven't seen my belly button since I turned 15... And I am turning 40 in 3 months! I miss that thing, it was an inny too.

I thought it's only me that looks slimmer in high waisted leggings

How do l love thee? Let me count the rolls.

I don't understand how it's possible. I'm thin and my stomach is like the first one, but I have flabby fat on my legs... Just none on my stomach, so how can hers look thin too at first but she can do that?

What's the point? She is contorting her body ti make herself look fatter or have rolls

It's important to show these and remember that Instagram and other pictures have the right angle and the right pose. The person may or may not look like that all the time. Don't judge yourself too harshly based on the best looking moment of someone else's life.

I think she looks great great in both photos But my standards of beauty is more defined by how someone acts with others not what they wrappings are Inner beauty is the best it's like Christmas present what really matters is what's inside

Her smile is so mischievous in the second photos, I love it!

That's still pretty nice tho..wish I had a belly that hungover like hers.

So the one on the right is not good? She looks amazing in both?

The picture on the right is how a woman should look. A waist, a pooch ... it's perfect.

I don't see the difference here

I have the exact same body as her,yet from time to time I feel like I should exercise to tone it a little .Most of the I hide it and don't feel confident.It's great to see encouragement.

I think she is more beautiful in the seconf picture

Okay... both look real to me. So this is just a matter of wearing something in a more flattering way. It has nothing to do with body image.

That girl look like from 123go challenge in youtube.

I love her honesty and confidence in posting these pics and I love the second photos and I love how she looks so happy in them and I think she's beautiful in the second ones she's real and actually beautiful. I wish I had that kind of confidence and im so happy someone is putting good vibes out in the world instead of constantly telling you that you should be ashamed of ur body if ur not just twigs. (No offense to anyone who struggles) (I'm at least twice her weight)

if she pulled the shorts up over her tummy pics would be the same

She looks better with a bit of a belly

I wish I had a body like hers... I hate mine, im disgusting

Love how she shows the real not to many would do that absolutely beautiful girl ❤️ love the confidence!!!!!! Hopefully you will rub off on the rest of these ladies

These are great photos! And great idea.

Better on the right photo. And I love her smile <3

You have no idea of how many young girls you have helped to see that pictures can be deceiving on the internet. And you may save a few lives in the process. So many teen girls are striving to be perfect like all of the tweaked images they see daily. They face harsh criticism if they post any natural photo. My own daughter gets told she's fat...her smile is crooked...her nose is wide...etc. Her self-esteem is horrible and she already has a wish list for plastic surgery. She's 16-years-old. I showed her your photos and she studied them for a while. She says that you are more beautiful naturally because you just look like every other girl on the internet in the other photos. You made an impact on her and I am very grateful!

I wish I had her shape and body... mine is disgusting
