I'm a bit shocked by these real life stories. The 'before' pictures look much 'better' than the after ones. Surely someone in head office can correct these? I spent a happy few minutes flicking through them all. I know I should be looking at the diet plans but it was much more amusing to just laugh. AIBU to think someone should have altered it by now? Imagine losing all that weight and then having the pictures like that.

I got it Op, it was perfectly obvious to me that you were talking about the website set up and the before & after captions being misleading.

I also thought it was obvious that OP was joking about the website layout, not the people, just like it was obvious it was a button, not a caption, but then people here just love to be outraged and pedantic.

I get it OP, you were pointing out the fact that the 'after' pics look like they are the 'before' pics... alot of SM have 'swipe for before' so that's maybe what they were trying to achieve but not completely clear. In your OP, it does sound a bit like you were slating the people who have lost the weight! I agree though, I think they look amazing! Makes me want to join! (But I won't, I'll just sit here looking through the pictures while enjoying my wine and chocolate)

You understand how tabs work, yes?

Wow. Go back to the 1990s and something called Encarta, and start there.

I think you have comprehension issues... harder to fix than weight loss

The website seems fine to me. Its quite obvious you click the before tab to see the before photo. It would be stranger to click before to see the after photo.
