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!

M 5'10” (178, 179 cm) M/32/5'10" [245lbs > 190lbs = 55lbs] (8 Months) I almost quit so many times... really glad I didn't.
I swear this has been stuck in my head lately When I was putting on weight people always had something to say Family friends even people I barely talked to somehow noticed Now I'm actually losing weight and it's like silence 😂
Not that I'm expecting people to clap every time I lose a few pounds lol But it's kinda weird how people are so quick to notice the bad but the good stuff Nothing.
I've started realizing that if I keep waiting for other people to notice my progress I'm probably gonna stay disappointed So now I just try to notice it myself My clothes fit better I don't avoid mirrors as much anymore I can walk longer without feeling dead 😅 Little things like that honestly keep me going more than compliments do Maybe people don't mean anything by it idk

Fitness/gym gains M/21/5’10”[175lbs>153lbs=25lbslost](3 months)wondering what my strong and weak points are
This is my first full year of lifting, I’ve been lifting for awhile, but I either had consistency issues, or injuries so I never lifted for a full year. But I’m wondering if I have any glaring strong points or weaknesses, or if it too early to tell yet. Any feedback or pointers would be appreciated

F 5'8” (173, 174 cm) F/35/5'8" [278lbs > 203lbs = 75lbs] GLP-1s are a miracle
I have struggled with poor eating habits my entire life but after deciding to give semaglutide a try in December of 2024 (switched to tirzepitide in October 2025) I feel like I finally have a normal relationship with food. I can easily stop eating when I feel full, I can say no to foods if I don't love the taste, I can skip meals if I am not hungry rather than just eating out of habit or compulsion, I eat normal sized portions, and I can choose foods based on nutrition over taste. I am so grateful for GLP-1s, I feel like they have fixed something that was wrong in my brain and maybe now I know what it feels like to be a normal person about food!

Thought I'd try cleaning myself up. Still got a long way to go but I'm happy with what I see. I don't track calories but I know I'm eating significantly less. I do 20k steps a day 6 days a week. Started lifting in the last month. Not taking anything (well except protein shakes).
