Woman Sick Of How Fake Everything On Instagram Is Reveals The Truth In The Most Epic Way
Instagram can be a wonderful and inspiring place, full of beautiful and artistic images of the places we want to see, and the people we want to be. However, beneath the shiny veneer is a harsh reality. The difference between real or fake vanishes. Many of these ‘perfect’ images promote totally unreachable ideals and gives us unrealistic expectations that can never be achieved and only lead to feelings of inadequacy, jealousy, and unhappiness.
Popular Instagram influencer and blogger Chessie King recognizes this and uses her platform to promote body positivity, showing the ‘true’ side to each ‘perfect’ photo by highlighting the incredible difference that certain poses make.
To make her point she poses in deliberately unflattering positions and angles, juxtaposing this with the typical ‘fake’ Instagram poses that models use to make their stomachs appear flatter, their legs longer and their waists narrower. The results are eye-opening, and, for those Instagrammers who are becoming used to believe that perfect is the new norm, a much-needed reality check about the beauty standards of today.
“THIS IS ME. THIS IS MY BODY. No flattering angles, no flattering lighting, just me and my body feeling on top of the world,” she wrote on one post. “A few years ago I would never have posted this, all I cared about back then was being the leanest I could, going to the gym as many times as I could a week, and counting every calorie I ate.”
“Even at my smallest, when I was training the most with my personal trainer & eating the least, I just wanted to cover up my body because it wasn’t my idea of ‘perfect.’ Now my priority is to be happy and comfortable in my own skin, and today I appreciate my body and what it does for me. We were not made to be Barbie dolls who LOOK insanely good 24/7, we were made to be HUMAN and we should all be allowed to FEEL insanely good 24/7. Come at me keyboard warriors, you can say what you want but nothing will knock my body positive attitude down.”
The social media trolls did indeed come out of the woodwork, making cruel “suggestions” of how she could improve her body. In response, Chessie made a shocking Instagram video of herself, which took their suggestions into account. “If we changed our body and natural beauty for every troll, listened to every cyber bully, we would be monsters. Whether you have 23 followers or 3 million, NO ONE should have to deal with regular hate online,” she captioned the grotesque video.
Chessie continues to push back against unrealistic ideals, Instagram trends and the pernicious nature of online trolls, doing so with a smile and a wicked sense of humor. Scroll down to check out some of her pics below, and you can visit her Instagram here. Let us know what you think in the comments!
Meet Chessie King, Instagram blogger and champion of body-positivity
She’s on a mission to help girls gain some body confidence, by showing all those perfect Instagram pics are nothing but a lie
“Neither of these photos are edited or photoshopped, same bottom just 2 completely different angles”
“It infuriates me to see ‘you’re too fat to wear those trousers’ on a recent post of mine. When I was the size I was in the left photo I had people telling me I was ‘too thin’ & ‘needing feeding up’…”
“It’s okay to find your ‘pose’ you feel comfortable in in photos but it’s even better to feel comfortable just standing flat foot on the ground, smiling like the grinch”
Chessie continues to push back against unrealistic ideals
“We’re all guilty of trying to pose to make our bodies look the best it can & that’s okay…”
“…but it’s photos like the right that help us all feel a little bit normal”
“I can change my body in 2 seconds, from the left photo to the right & in both, I feel good”
“Just a little reminder how easy it is to change your body”
“Left: this morning (no ‘flattering lighting’ or tensing) Right: this afternoon. I’ve eaten alllll the chocolate, all the hot cross buns & ALL the popcorn”
“Instagram is FLOODED with the left photos when actually we should be drowning in ‘the real life booty’ pictures”
“This is not a pregnancy announcement. This is 8:30am Friday morning. Bloating doesn’t just happen after a day of eating loads of food”
“Hot sweaty mess to Wimbledon ready in just half an hour”
“These photos are literally a second apart”
“If I edited my photos like the right, people would see me face to face & be like HELLLLL SHE DOUBLED IN SIZE”
“When I was at my smallest, I was definitely not my happiest”
She constantly reminds that focusing on your weight is not the way to gaining body-confidence
“These photos were taken just minutes apart. The leggings on the left are a Large, the leggings on the right are a Small. Different brands”
Despite being a body-positivity blogger, Chessie still deals with body shamers all the time, so she photoshopped her body based on their criticisms
“If we changed our body for every troll, listened to every cyber bully, we would be monsters”
“Whether you have 23 followers or 3 million, NO ONE should have to deal with regular hate online”

Share on Facebookmore people, women and men, should see this post. the camera never lies is still the biggest lie. being happy is the most important thing.
It feels like these posts are just another convenient way to post copious amounts of selfies without coming off self absorbed and perhaps making your self seem more relatable. I don't know, my generation is addicted to attention, this post just feels slightly unauthentic because the girl is clearly beautiful in all of her photos.
I would say this is precisely the point she's trying to make : Instagram is flooded with perfectly posed pictures, which can be nice but are also misleading, and can hurt anyone's self image. But here, she's not making those perfect poses, and she is still quite as beautiful, no matter how many tiny flaws are revealed. Okay it's a bit narcissic, but the message is still quite nice.
Load More Replies...Wow. Lots of hating here on a post about body positivity. Trust me, as a mom of teen girls, this really is a huge difference from one photo to another. While you may not see the subtle differences, a girl struggling with the air brushed pages of a magazine and what she's 'supposed' to look like, seeing someone show it's ok to have a tummy roll, or a bloat, and be normal is a giant boost. Despite all the cries for 'love yourself as you are,' young girls are still under extreme social, media and peer pressure to look, act, and dress a certain way. I say Cheers and thank you!
Except this influencer is still relatively thin, and definitely very pretty. So probably no help to girls anywhere. I'll bet if my 5ft4in 75kg self recreated this post no one would be impressed cos the before and after pics wouldn't change that much. I know that no pose or posture is going to make me look thin and pretty, so no, this article does not make me feel better.
Load More Replies...Please stop calling people "courageous" for posting pictures of themselves. There is nothing courageous about a picture of you being you. It is what the rest of the world sees every day they look at you. Also it is always of some young girl who looks good naturally as they are young. All these posts are is a "look at me" post. They are just looking for people to say how beautiful they are.
Who f*****g cares? The message is still there and if it helps someone, it helps someone.
Load More Replies...We always were though. Its just more obvious with the internet now. But we've been obsessing over our looks and how much money we have for centuries
Load More Replies...I’m sorry but what is this article supposed to show or teach? How is a model who looks great in deleted and posted pictures supposed to teach body confidence? It looks to me like this is an advertisement of one’s self. I really don’t get the point of this. Maybe it’s just me.
It teaches us about inner beauty and demonstrates that someone we think is a perfect 10 sometimes is really a 9.5, love youself because we all are beautiful.
Load More Replies...the "different brands, different sizes" thing really bothers me -- isn't the ENTIRE POINT of universal sizes that they're the same? so you can just look at a label and know how large/small an item is without trying on twenty skillion sizes?
This so heartwarming! She is beautiful even more so because of her humanity, compassion, and humor. She has the most gorgeous blue eyes too! Great post
Can't rate you enough for fighting against the shallow vanity perpetuated by social media. You're beautiful anyway but some very valid points on how to a) take a good pic and b) how not to care what others think. I'd love it if some guys would do similar given that we're all supposed to be muscular, chisel jawed hunks these days!
My favourite pictures are the ones she's laughing and just not IGsmiling...
I loved your REAL pictures. If you are thin but unhappy, what's the point? healthy, no matter your size is the base for feeling well. Bravo gorgeous!!
Here's the irony in this story.... if this beauty walked up to just about any guy who criticized her for her pictures, they would be stammering, unconfident fools who would most likely compensate by being idiots.
The thing I do not understand is why young women feel the need to post half-naked photos on themselves for the whole world to see.
I think it's mostly insecure or narcissistic people who need validation through attention. But it's not really harming anyone, so to each their own....
Load More Replies...This... Actually worked on me. I'm gonna go drink some herbal tea now, I feel healthy all of a sudden!
Revealing the lies behind people trying to look perfect. Points to this woman for being confident enough to post these pictures and completely disregard other peoples opinions.
I remember like 15 years ago (‘twas in my early 20’s) there were all these articles about photoshop being used to lie to people. ‘It’ll be nice when people wise up and they stop doing this’ I thought. Now we do it to ourselves in loads of photo’s. Ah well, maybe it will change soon
Well there you go ladies. She's hot af in all photos. And look, she's got an inch of flab when scrunched up just so. Poor girl. Thanks for the reality check. What a dumb b***h. This has everything to do with vapid exhibitionism and vanity. Body positivity? Easy when you're hot af. Move along.
people tell me im good looking for a guy and i still have body confidence issues. all these look pretty both the good and bad ones
It's not only Instagram ... Pinterest, TikTok, & most American media too (including tv, films, mags) ... what you're "supposed" to look like. And don't just blame "haters" ... girls trying to "look hot" are as guilty as anyone.
Wow so much beauty shaming! Whether the older generation likes it or not, everyone now a days would rather look at pics and a video rather than fully read an all print article. So while it may seem self absorbed, it is actually NORMAL to this generation. But, to share the best and worst in a photo shoot is commendable. She has been promoted to brave because she endures hypocritical, pointless, and abusive comments. Which stem from jealousy of her natural beauty. To be honest, many of her photos, if they had my face on them, would be unsharable to my standards. Almost all of them did show how much of a difference posture makes in someone generally considered skinny. Making yourself appear 4 sizes smaller, more toned, or voluptuous is a trick, and she highlights that. People need to stop hating cause the post didn't show size 22s how to look like 4s XD. XP.
That’s not true for this generation. I don’t prefer photos over words. I enjoy both. And what do we think her point here really is? This isn’t courageous. At all. She’s trying to blow up on social media. Period. She is still flaunting herself. To each is own. But own it. I hate manipulation. It’s all about finding something to make your photos stand out. This before and after thing has become yet another way to flaunt while feigning virtue. I don’t hate the girl. But I’m not respecting this move either. And comments like yours irk me. You can’t speak for an entire generation. How dare you suggest we prefer this over intellectual enjoyment? I know you meant well. And when I say how dare you I don’t mean it in an angry way. But I do mean it. It’s unfair. Trust me she wouldn’t have posted this if she thought it would only be seen by a handful of people. This was done for attention. I can respect someone modeling on Instagram. I can’t respect the manipulation of this though
Load More Replies...I USED to be ashamed that I was bigger than my sister, like twice her size (she is 2 years older, but I look 3 years older than her.). She is petite, but has like the cute butt and breast and whatever, like a cheerleader body, but, me, I am.. thick. I have big hips (entirely from bone.) Letś say my bottom is NOT small. I used to feel so bad, but after reading this, I realized I am who I am. And I won be hurt by it.
I honestly think the pictures that you didn't post were pretty I don't have the self confidence to post any picture of myself but you do so just need yourself
I get what she's trying to show and do here and I definitely appreciate it, but even her "unflattering" pics are still pretty hot.
The thing is that I (me personally) prefer her „natural“ photos because she seems just way more likeable than on her instagram.
Chessie's photoshop according to her critics shows the ideal body of some persons who have undergone surgery to be lastingly perfect in their dream self and have made a self mockery of their natural beauty they cannot undo.
I really loved this! Most people that support body positivity are larger women. But to see a smaller person that had issue finding correct sizes like size 14 and size 8 (which is what I get a lot) was really wonderful! She is what people would consider skinny but even skinny people arnt happy with their bodies. So it was just nice seeing her confidence ^^
Despite the haters & critics I think it's a good article to share - I work with young people and just showing them these slight differences hopefully will empower them to stop think & reassess xxx
So many more people should be able to see this! Not only women, but men too should feel comfortable in their own skin; not uncomfortable just for the standard idea of "beauty". Everyone is beautiful, just in their own way. Kudos to you and other who have done this!You're beautiful!
This feels less about body confidence and more about how posing and posture makes you look better on camera. Nothing wrong with that. But body confidence is not about feeling fine at 400 pounds. It's about being healthy and fit and not feeling down about one pack ab or a flat butt/chest. Feel like this is completely lost on most people.
Well said. Plus, there's nothing wrong with flattering clothes and angles.
Load More Replies...It´s always lovely to see women show of their bloated tummies, cause people want to hide it.
no matter how hard you try to look bad you are still looking gorgeous in all the pictures
She's young and pretty, but even if she weren't, I think it's great the she wants everyone to feel good about themselves. Being one who struggled with positive self image, I find the message refreshing!
She seems so lovely. I wish more people were as honest and witty as her.
It's still a totally narcissistic look at ME it's all about ME post. When are people going to realize this. Instagram is not beneficial to society as a whole AT ALL.
All these women AND men that make these posts claiming they want to "help people" are just as bad as everyone else, simply seeking validation! Validation from people that will NEVER meet and NEVER see! Oh wow you showed a picture of yourself that "unfaltering", wow you're so courageous!🙄 Once upon a time if you wanted validation you needed to DO something worth validating. Taking pictures of yourself all day is NOT normal. It's growing week empty humans. And to all the many people doling out validation, you're all disingenuous and simply want everyone to see how accepting you are! It's virtue signaling and it's gross. Good attention, bad attention. It doesn't make a difference anymore as long as you're getting attention! Like a child!
Who are we to judge? Only God and the Devil can ... as far as history goes women deliver all by themselves and indeed sometimes it goes wrong ... honestly you can loose your child at any age even in this 'modern time' ... but hey that's my opinion if your's different I respect it so as I respect their decision of giving birth on their own familiar home even when a dog is involved
She is perfectly blonde, cis, and beautiful in all her photos, even the pics where she isn't sucking in her abdomen. The point is lost entirely. She's trying to show her flaws, of which she apparently has none.
The most stereotypical blonde cis woman ever, post a picture where she isn't sucking in her tummy? How groundbreaking.
You can't turn back the clock, therefore, instead of wasting valuable time in your life worrying about "body image", keep busy with something that you would enjoy. Volunteer with seniors or an animal shelter, life is short be happy !!!
Why not just told them the photo taking involving: correct diet, exercise, posture, camera angle, and some post-productions? Let them know the reality that all this photo are not FAKE, it is real photo, by real people with the proper set of skills?? Shooting everything down as FAKE is like you trying to deny all the efforts and skills of photographers and models. Please continue body-shaming people who look better than you under the name of "body positive".
She’s a very attractive woman and knows it - which negates the point of the posts. I wonder if she’ll feel so bold when she’s say, 60?
That was interesting, but she needs to move her concentration to what's inside her head and stop worrying about what people think of her looks. Interacting with different people and recording the results would also move the focus of herself and into the world. Those photos would be much more interesting!
She needs to move her focus off herself and take photos of herself interacting with other people and discussing world events. This would be much more interesting to me, and others, I suspect.
You are stunning in every single picture. DO YOU AND TO HELL WITH TROLLS AFRAID TO
Whoops not done lol, don't let people hiding behind a keyboard, stuffing their faces with Cheetos (WHAT!? They're good Damn it!) and thank you for taking time to make sure that the rest of the population knows that real is beautiful and also posture changes everything!!! Your an inspiration

Personally, the girl in the "better" photos, while looking "hotter", seems like a girl I wouldn't want to deal with. The "lesser" looking photos seem like a girl I would want to date.
I thought this post was supposed to shed light about the reality vs Instagram reality but it seems that most of her so called “Reality” photos looked staged. Her face expressions and postures were clearly exaggerated on most of them to show that even on her “candid shots” she still looks good. Millennials and their self promotion 😏🤔
Oh my God, I'm so glad to tell everyone the real thing that happen to me…My name is Mercy Fred am from USA.If i refuse to share this testimony it means i am selfish to my self and to people i love so much whom might have similar problems, March 16th about something 7:23pm after taken our dinner my husband got crazy started calling a lady name Melisa I love you, i was so mad and started crying like a baby…then my husband left home for the idiot called Melisa, and never return back home then i believed when he then understand his self he will surly come back to apology, but instead he left me So i complained to my friend she told me she was having such problems in her marriage until she was introduce to Dr.Voodoo who specializes in bringing back broken homes and broken marriages DR.Voodoo cast a spell for me in May 4th surprisingly my husband came home May 6th apologizing that i should forgive him that it will never happen again, i was so glad and gave the thanks to Dr.Voodoo who save my
So f*****g stupid. So it's NOT okay to purposely try to make yourself hotter on Instagram, but it IS okay for you to make silly faces and push your stomach out at unflattering angles to prove some sort of point?
I don't think the message is it's bad. It's just to help people with insecurities to realize that no one looks that perfect in real life.
Load More Replies...Epic humble brags...also only a cis gendered conventionally attractive white blonde girl would do this and be praised as revealing an “epic truth”. Nothing against her, but obviously even her “worst” photos are what people aspire to and are excluded for not attaining. Which is obviously what we’re meant to conclude so it’s just an epic humble brag not an epic truth. There’s not a hair on her head that isn’t societally accepted and valued.
Tfw people use "cis gendered" and "white" so they can hate on people, but in a progressive way.

Whoops not done lol, don't let people hiding behind a keyboard, stuffing their faces with Cheetos (WHAT!? They're good Damn it!) and thank you for taking time to make sure that the rest of the population knows that real is beautiful and also posture changes everything!!! Your an inspiration

Personally, the girl in the "better" photos, while looking "hotter", seems like a girl I wouldn't want to deal with. The "lesser" looking photos seem like a girl I would want to date.
I thought this post was supposed to shed light about the reality vs Instagram reality but it seems that most of her so called “Reality” photos looked staged. Her face expressions and postures were clearly exaggerated on most of them to show that even on her “candid shots” she still looks good. Millennials and their self promotion 😏🤔

So f*****g stupid. So it's NOT okay to purposely try to make yourself hotter on Instagram, but it IS okay for you to make silly faces and push your stomach out at unflattering angles to prove some sort of point?
I don't think the message is it's bad. It's just to help people with insecurities to realize that no one looks that perfect in real life.

Nothing against her, but obviously even her “worst” photos are what people aspire to and are excluded for not attaining. Which is obviously what we’re meant to conclude so it’s just an epic humble brag not an epic truth. There’s not a hair on her head that isn’t societally accepted and valued.
Tfw people use "cis gendered" and "white" so they can hate on people, but in a progressive way.
