90 Day Fiance alum Anfisa Nava has been a little quieter than usual lately.
Part of that is because she’s no longer on the show after her negotiations fell through.
(She was asking for a lot more money per season than TLC was willing to fork over)
But part of it has been that she’s been busy.
On top of being a full time student, Anfisa has been delving into the world of bodybuilding — and the results are stunning.
Of course, Anfisa has her haters, and some are accusing her of digitally altering her photos to make her transformation seem more dramatic.
Let’s take a look at her before and after photos and see
Anfisa has been transforming her body
The 90 Day Fiance alum took up an interest in bodybuilding
For contrast …
This is what Anfisa looked like shortly before her husband, Jorge, began serving his two-year prison sentence for marijuana.
Here she was even earlier
This is a still from Anfisa’s 90 Day Fiance casting video — from when she was still in Moscow. This is the same apartment (and camera angle) from which she allegedly worked as a camgirl. She has always been a beautiful woman.
Then she started seriously working out
Anfisa didn’t need to lose weight, of course, but she decided to trim down and build up some serious muscle. The results speak for themselves.
Look at her now!
In her captions on Instagram, Anfisa shares her stats: she is “5-foot-7” and weighs “128 lbs.”
She has gained weight
“I gained ~10 lbs in the last 5 months,” Anfisa reveals.
This is great news
“And,” she concludes, she is “happy to see they went to all the right places.”
Anfisa is flaunting her body transformation for all to see
However, this dramatic before-and-after split has some people crying foul
Did she photoshop her pics?
No. Anfisa insists that she didn’t doctor either her before photos or her after photos.
So why do people think she digitally altered them?
Some people are just dickish trolls. Others, though, may be victims of their own perceptions
Maybe their eyes are playing tricks on their memories
You know when you see someone with or without a beard for the first time and the difference between that and how they looked before startles you a little? The same thing can happen when someone puts on or sheds pounds. It can even interfere with how you remember them from before the change.
Is that what’s happening here?
Maybe her current slender look has lasted for enough months that people forgot what Anfisa looked like. Or maybe people just like to be mean for women on the internet for no reason. (Or both!)
For the record, here is how she used to look
She’s traded her soft body’s curves for a less curvy, harder body. So long as she’s getting the results she wants, good for her!
And another throwback, for good measure
It’s also possible, we must admit, that she just chose less flattering photos for the “before” pics. That’s usually how it’s done.
And there’s more good news
Anfisa isn’t just an amateur bodybuilder anymore. Just days ago, she announced that she’s going to be competing in a bodybuilding competition. Good for her!
What does Jorge think of all of this?
We’re guessing that he’s thinking that his time behind bars sucks and that he misses his wife. But also, even if they’re married, it’s Anfisa’s body, not his. We’re sure that, if he really loves her, he’ll be happy to see her no matter her shape when he gets out from behind bars.
