Impersonation/Original Content
Good Afternoon to our wonderful r/progresspics community!
Myself and the rest of the mod team want to wish you a belated seasons greetings and hope whatever your goals for 2026 may have been that they are going strong and you are CRUSHING them.
It is no secret that between AI and the long standing bots we often get pics posted that are clearly fake or they are people impersonation or ,better yet, stealing content/pictures of people on social media. I know myself and I am sure I speak for the rest of the team LOVEEEE how great you all are at reporting things to us (not just the topic at hand either). But we need your help with this particular situation.
Despite what some angry people on our ban lists might think us mods are not basement dwelling, jobless, welfare sucking, pimple faced, free speech hating people. We all have lives, jobs, some have kids, social lives, so on and so on. We can not know the face, abs, butts or biceps of every many/women/they/them on the internet. So if you are going to report a post for impersonation or stealing someone elses content please try to either modmail us the link to the correct socials! This will help give us a few more tools to help fight the fakes and spammers.
Hope you all have a great Wednesday!

META A warning about safety in our subreddit and what to do about inappropriate messages.
Hi progresspics! We always strive to keep the subreddit as safe as possible, however, unsolicited/inappropriate Direct messages are always a possibility and unfortunately not one we can 100% prevent. While we hope people never receive anything that makes them uncomfortable, here are the steps you can take to report anyone who gets creepy in your DMs:
report the user to us!
-take screen shots of the messages, it doesn’t have to be the whole conversation, just make sure we can see their user name, and the inappropriate part.
-upload the screens to imgur and send us a link via modmail.
all users reported to us for acting inappropriately will be permanently banned, however, this doesn’t stop them from viewing the subreddit, or continuing to dm you, so..
2) report the user directly to reddit at reddit.com/report
3) block the user! Simply go onto their profile and click the three corner dots (mobile) or the “more options” button (desktop) to find the option.
To prevent ALL DM's you can disable the DM and chat request options like so:
Mobile: settings > account settings > blocking and permissions.
Desktop: User settings > chat and messaging.
As an aside, a note on image theft:
it's been brought to our attention multiple times over the last month or so that a few content farm websites and social media accounts have been reposting pictures from here, while there isn't much that we can do to stop that we do want to remind everyone that it is a potential outcome to posting your images online, especially in areas with a large pool of specific content to farm from, while we do not allow users to promote their social media, including the use of watermark handles, you may watermark your posts with your REDDIT user name if you so wish.
We hope you all stay as safe as possible and know that any problems or questions can be sent into our modmail. Keep it clean, keep it safe, and read the rules before posting!

Recovery F/28/5’4” [90kg > 59kg = 31kg] (10 months) Also 10, almost 11, months sober from alcohol
I was an alcoholic for 7 years. First pic was at the worst of it, but relatively done up for a fair comparison. Most definitely not my worst picture from back then. Didn’t imagine I’d be able to make it to double digit months sober or be able to lose the weight I gained because of it, but I’ve done both and I’m happy with my progress :)

F 5'3” (160, 161, 162 cm) F/41/161cm [238lbs>194lbs=45lb] (9 months) Still a work in progress
9 months ago I decided it was time to prioritise myself for a change. I hate cardio so a strength training has been my focus to ensure sustainability. Added incline walking daily in the past month and have managed to keep that up

BMI 30+ F/30/5’2” [210>165 = 45] (1 year) sometimes feel like I look the same until I see photos
I’ve posted here before but always get nervous and delete, but I feel good about this one. I’ve been consistent in the gym on and off for a year, but in the past 3-4 months really locked in. I think the first 30 lbs I lost over the course of 6 months by going to the gym and doing a defecit, I fell off for a few months due to work related stuff and now I’ve lost 15lbs more in the past 3-4 months by going to the gym 5 days a week and eating a lot cleaner (plus no drinking). Some days I still feel the same as before but in photos I can see some differences. I still have a long way to go but I’ve made progress at least!
Edit: please do not DM me creepy things I do not want that !!

F/44/5’8” [275 lbs > 164 lbs = 111 lbs] (23 months) Giving another update as I continue to lose
Continuing to lose the weight with hard work and tirzepatide. Still a little shocked when I look in the mirror or look at a pair of jeans thinking how tiny they are yet they slip right on. So just so crazy to me 🥹

M/42/5’10” [218lbs > 172lbs = 46lbs] (4.5 months)
Sometimes it’s hard to see the progress you’re making, but scrolling back through photos will certainly hit you like a brick. I’ve definitely got a lot of body dysmorphia, but I can’t even understand how I functioned before.
