A month ago I have a sweet note from my brother, who is on the Internet would have a fiber optic cable connected to its parent brain style... If it wasn't so simple. (I think your brain could be the cloud. Shh.) Anyway. "Uh, Shosh?" wrote to me. (Yes, Shosh is my childhood nickname. Do not ask). "I believe that someone is stealing your stuff..." And he sent me a link to a website that had stolen some of my photos, stripped of my copyright and the redesigned as "fitspiration".
First, lest you think that they were fetishizing my particular body, let me disillusion you. Photos were of my practice and used them as inspiration for training until vomiting. Secondly, you all know how I feel about fitspiration. It is basically thinspiration in a sports bra. Thinspiration is Miley Cyrus of Internet memes: provocative, in the face and with intelligence (grammar) of a child's 3rd grade. Oh, and are bad for the girls.
At first I was real angry my photos (and my message) were being as stolen. But I quickly slipped into a depression semi because this sort of thing - well, the part stealing - it has been happening since my blog has more than 5 readers. There are several web sites that "scraping" my messages daily *, taking all my hard written text and photos, slapping directly on your website and claiming them as their own. It is outrageous, is unfair and there's not much that can be done that all sites are hosted in countries that are too busy suffering under oppressive regimes concerned with intellectual property rights. But my favorite story of theft was when a major news station of United States tore off some photos of my blog kickboxing and used them to illustrate their newscasts, as if they were pictures. I learned about this when you call a friend in OHIO to wonder was on his newscast. Sigh.
Stealing is bad enough, but what I really eat is that people are using my face and my body disorderly to illustrate their own thoughts and behaviors. This really hurts because I have fought against my eating disorders, particularly my addiction of the exercise, for so many years. I have worked very hard to reach a place healthy (ish) and see my body behind some stupid anorexia how-to disguised as a "Board-shaped" makes me want to hit someone.
But as I am not an unbelievable hacker and not an amazing Boxer, I decided to do my best. I took my own photos of my own "FITSPIRATION" by God! (Or perhaps succumbed to the latest trend to snap "healthies"? healthy + selfie = healthie.) You are welcome).
These are the messages that I would like to use my image to get there:
Doesn't matter it that in contact with her thighs. Never heard of "bikini season". With it, the cheese is as delicious as it is a command to smile. Let's keep it that way. And with a smile so big that you need pants anyway?
As I hate that nonsense "blaming others" all that people say when you say you find a friend to training with. It is the work of her personal trainer. First, they are friends. Do not drill sergeants, teachers of task or guilt-inducing. Well done, a gym partner can be your great ally in the gym and out.
Even big boys (and girls) need rest. I have no shame in saying that it is now. The only one who wins if you vomit is the dog.
Heaven help me if ever a day where the stunting in random places becomes socially unacceptable.
There are plenty of good reasons for training. This happens to be my favorite. (Thanks Bekky!) Likewise, live with my children is already a circus, as well as I could do it official with a small act of Trapeze, truth?
Oh and never lets a good two-way go to lose! That is what he said.
They are great friends who give you a shoulder to cry. Friends that give you to lift your arms are wonderful. But friends who turn their backs to scale so can shout "I'm the Queen of the world!" are priceless.
Holy strange God.
What are you saying? If you have to turn something to your Board's motivation, such one of these? (Or something like that? I'm not saying I have the lock in impressive non-fitspo) If you do your own photo anti-fitspo, what would it say?
* I was told that the only reliable way to keep people from poaching my stuff in this way is to go to a partial RSS feed (or I do not think at all) but when guys from that surveyed, 90% of my readers said that it could be low on my blog if I went to a format "read more". And I love more than hate scrapers all way!
