Sometimes it seems like every other post you scroll through on Instagram is a fitness transformation. But if so many of us are willing to post about our physical progress, why don’t we post about our mental progress more often?
Influencer Halle took the lead and did post about the progress she’s made with her own mental health issue: her self-love journey and battle with an eating disorder. We have to say, her posts are way more inspiring than any before-and-after weight loss shot we’ve ever seen.
“This is not a fitness transformation. This is a self-love transformation. Not every photo you see online tells the whole story… There is always another angle that person isn’t showing,” Halle wrote in a recent post that shows her own side-by-side body shots taken only seconds apart. Both photos look very different simply because she angled her body in a certain way,
Her point: that you shouldn’t buy into all the transformation images you see on social media, since they can be manipulated and edited so easily.
She went on to explain that she originally posted these photos about two years ago, and at the time, she was terrified of showing herself in such a vulnerable way. But the response she got from her followers made it clear to her that she needed to share more things like this.
Many users commented that getting the truth about how transformation photos can be easily manipulated has helped them tremendously. Plus, Halle was then able to connect with a community of people who could help her with her own self-love obstacles, including an eating disorder.
“Showing up for myself first and foremost has helped me in my recovery, having this public diary has given ME a voice and forced my eating disorder to take a backseat,” she wrote.
But Halle doesn’t only show up for herself; she also shows up for her community of followers, who help her just as much as she helps them.
If used in the wrong way, social media can make it hard to keep a body-positive mindset. But if you surround yourself with the right users, like Halle, it can help you build a community of support and inspiration.

Heat sugar, water, and honey in a 10-inch oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium-high. Cook until bubbly, slightly thick, and beginning to darken in color, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in butter and cinnamon. Reduce heat to medium. Add pears, and cook, without stirring but rotating skillet occasionally, until liquid has reduced and is very thick and syrupy, and pears are tender, 45 to 50 minutes. (Mixture should bubble vigorously at beginning, but begin to subside as mixture thickens.)
Step 2
Preheat oven to 400°F. Roll puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface into an 11-inch square; place over pear mixture in skillet, and trim edges. Bake in preheated oven until pastry is golden brown, 18 to 22 minutes. Let cool completely to room temperature, about 2 hours. Invert onto a plate.
Adelaide – South Africa captain Faf du Plessis says he takes no pleasure from the continuing turmoil in Australian cricket, but is happy to take advantage of the situation while he can.
South Africa won the first one-day international by six wickets in Perth last weekend, Australia’s seventh consecutive loss in the 50-over format.
The teams play the second of three matches in Adelaide on Friday, with the third ODI in Hobart on Sunday.
The ball-tampering scandal during a Test in Cape Town in March prompted an overhaul which saw national coach Darren Lehmann and chief executive James Sutherland leave Cricket Australia.
Test captain Steve Smith and vice-captain David Warner were banned from international and first-class cricket for 12 months and opening batsman Cameron Bancroft was suspended for nine months after his clumsy attempt to change the condition of the ball with sandpaper was captured by TV cameras.
“It’s never nice when it carries on for so long,” Du Plessis said on Thursday in the wake of more executive changes announced this week by Cricket Australia and the resignation of former captain Mark Taylor as a board director.
“I think everyone in their camp would just like to start afresh now and make sure they can focus on the cricket.”
But Du Plessis says he’s happy to take advantage of a depleted Australian line-up with some of their best players on the sidelines.
“I believe you have to,” he said. “If you do get an opportunity against Australia where you can put your foot on the gas, it’s really important to try and do that because it’s not often you get those opportunities.
“Obviously from a results point of view, there is a bit of pressure on their batting line-up to score runs.”
Australia’s ODI captain Aaron Finch admitted that the upheaval has been on his mind, with the world champions following a series loss against Pakistan with a lopsided opening loss to South Africa.
“When there are changes, and there’s things being said and written about, I think it’s hard not to read it sometimes when it’s everywhere,” Finch said.
Two people believed to have been working as Zama Zama’s (illegal miners) were found dead in Krugersdorp on Friday.
According to police spokesperson Sergeant Tshepiso Mashele said the bodies were found in an open field behind Makulugama informal settlement at approximately 12:00.
Mashele said the two had been shot multiple times.
“The deceased were identified by a friend. They both [come] from Secunda in the Mpumalanga province,” he said.
Mashele said no arrests had been made and anyone with information that could assist with the investigation of the murder must contact Krugersdorp SAPS.

Price Woodward was the picture of health at age 52. He lived an active lifestyle and ran marathons. He was definitely not the type of person you’d expect to have a stroke.
But one night, his wife, Tammy, heard a strange noise coming from the other side of the bed. She turned on the light and Price started talking to her, but she couldn’t understand what he was saying.
Tammy could tell something wasn’t right, so she called 911. But because Price had the stroke in his sleep and his wife had no way of knowing exactly when the stroke began, he wasn’t eligible for clot-busting medication that can sometimes stop a stroke before much damage is done.
“His stroke was really bad. It affected the left side of his body, and he couldn’t even sit up. If I hadn’t been home, I think he would’ve died. It’s been a long road to recovery,” Tammy said.
Specific, tailored rehab
But Price, who lives in Greensboro, Georgia, had a lot of motivation to go through stroke rehabilitation to get better. His middle daughter got engaged after he’d had the stroke, and he was determined to be there for her wedding day.
“I told my therapist I was going to walk her down the aisle,” he said.
Stroke therapy is very specific, tailored rehab. Tammy explained that even though Price started rehabilitation in a wheelchair, his therapist helped him achieve the goal of walking. She calculated how many steps it would be, how his gait might affect his balance, and even considered how the train of the dress would play into his walking down the aisle.
Lots of hard work paid off. Not only did Price escort his middle daughter down the aisle, he was also able to attend his youngest daughter’s graduation and welcome his oldest daughter’s first child.
But as far as he’s come in recovery, Price knows that if he could have gotten help faster, things might have been very different.
A friend of his also had a stroke, but it happened in front of the friend’s family. His friend was able to get to the hospital right away and received the clot-buster drug called TPA. His friend was essentially back to normal in four months, Price said.
In comparison, Price is still recovering from his stroke four years later.
“If you see someone having a stroke, make a note of what time it is,” he advised, because doctors will want to know what time the symptoms began.
Acting quickly can save lives
Dr Olajide Williams, director of acute stroke services at New York-Presbyterian Hospital, agreed that acting quickly can save lives. An easy way to remember what to look out for is the acronym FAST:
F is for face. If one half of the face droops when you ask someone to smile or show their teeth, that person may be having a stroke.
A is for arm. Ask the person to raise both arms. If someone is having a stroke, one arm won’t go up at all or may not go up as much and then goes down quickly.
S is for speech. Talking gibberish or slurring words might be a sign of a stroke.
T is for time to call 911. “Time is brain. Every minute that a stroke is allowed to continue, you lose two million brain cells. The more brain cells that die, the less the chance is for reversing the stroke with treatment,” Williams said.
There’s usually a three-hour window from the time stroke symptoms begin until you can receive treatment with TPA, or in certain cases, 4.5 hours. With endovascular (blood vessel) treatments, you have six hours from the first symptoms, Williams said.
Don’t try to drive yourself to the hospital, he said. “The call to 911 is critical. It bypasses any waiting. The ambulance notifies the hospital and that activates the hospital system and stroke team,” he added.
Williams also cautioned not to think you’re immune from stroke if you’re younger. He said strokes are occurring in younger people, especially in communities with more obesity and diabetes.
Like Price, Williams wants people to know there is life after stroke. “Even if an individual doesn’t receive acute treatment, rehabilitation can improve function and accelerate recovery,” Williams said.
More than seven million Americans aged 20 and older have had a stroke, according to the American Stroke Association.
