Take Madalin Giorgetta, for example. For years, the personal trainer's Instagram feed has been filled with photos of her flaunting her tight, toned, seemingly flawless body. Recently, however, the Australian decided tochange things up by sharing a photo of her "butt dimples."The photo, Giorgetta explained in her post, was never meant for others to see. "When my sister originally took this photo of me I saw it and was like, 'eww gross delete delete,'" she wrote in a caption for the post. "I forgot to delete it and kept it on my computer for months.Eventually, the photo resurfaced when Giorgetta was asked to submit images for a spread inWomen's Health & Fitness magazine."I originally sent five other edited pics, in which I thought I looked a lot cuter. I saw this when I was searching for good photos and originally was like 'well, I'm not sending that,'" Giorgetta told INSIDER via e-mail. "Then I rethought my decision [...] and decided people needed to see a more realistic photo." When my sister originally took this photo of me I saw it and was like "eww gross delete delete". I forgot to delete it and kept it on my computer for months. I shared another similar more flattering picture on my Instagram (sans butt dimples) and never thought I would ever share the original photo. When @whandfmag were interviewing me for a piece on their body issue edition I attached 5 images, all pictures in which I thought I looked pretty good 'I hesitated to send this picture as I didn't know how I'd feel about this being on every newsstand in Australia. In a "what the hell" moment I emailed it through, and the editor told me it was the picture there were deciding to print ' Now that I see it in print, I'm extremely proud and so happy I made the decision to publish a photo of myself that shows me for me '' no editing, no booty pose, just me, a giant coconut and my goofy grin ' A post shared by Madalin Giorgetta (@madalingiorgetta) on Sep 18, 2017 at 4:26am PDTon Sep 18, 2017 at 4:26am PDT Although the fit-stagrammer says she doesn't retouch her photos, she does admit to adding filters and posting photos that are deemed "good" by traditional standards. With this recent photo, however, she wanted to make sure followers saw a side of her and of the fitness industry that they aren't used to."We don't see enough of these photos, and we don't need to look at another picture of hard abs and perfect butts," Giorgetta told us.Fans were happy to see Giorgetta share a more authentic photo. "You are so gorgeous and I love that you shared this," one user wrote. "Thank you! You make me feel better about myself," another person wrote.The positive feedback from both fans and the internet as a whole has inspired Giorgetta topost more "untouched" photos in the future.
