Ellie Gonsalves went viral earlier last year after she shared her list of 118 reasons she does not want children on social media.
But now the Australian actress and model, 34, has been causing a stir online for a very different reason.
The influencer took to Instagram recently to promote a weight loss program, but in the photos Ellie seemed to use a 15-year-old picture as her ‘before’ depiction.
Instagram account Influencer Updates made the connection on Monday by sharing a screenshot of Ellie’s post.
The post showed her in red lingerie and then looking slimmed down in a skimpy swimsuit, showing her progress.
‘Designed by industry experts with me as the “test subject”, this program took me from feeling unhealthy with no energy (left) to feeling the best version of myself (right).’
In the caption, Influencer Updates wrote: ‘Ellie Gonsalves using a pic of her at age 19 (currently age 34) as her “before” for her ebook.’
Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Ellie Gonsalves for comment.

It comes after Ellie recently shared some of the troll comments she has received via her Instagram DMs after listing 118 reasons she does not want children.
She posted a screen shot of a message she got on Instagram Stories which read: ‘You’ll also most likely die alone with no one by your side.’
Ellie replied: ‘What’s gonna stop you from dying alone? Lol having kids isn’t an insurance policy against loneliness. Get some friends for Christ sake’.
The Australian model whipped her followers into a frenzy after recently posting the list to social media.
Among her reasons listed were postpartum hair loss, the baby may poo inside you, your vagina will be different, your house will never be tidy, childbirth can cause rectal prolapse and you miss out on things you love doing.

‘While some of those things on my list are satirical, many are serious and factual. Societal pressure when it comes to this topic are truly questionable and I believe unfair towards those with differing opinions,’ she said of the list.
‘Very rarely do we see a voice in support of this, because let’s face it, the public backlash can be too much,’ the influencer added.
Ellie married her long-term partner, entrepreneur Ross Scutts, in two luxury ceremonies back in March.
The official nuptials took place at the floating beach club La Luna on the Gold Coast in an intimate toi et moi wedding.
They followed it up with a second luxury gathering where they invited their bridal party and other guests.
The couple, who have been together for 15 years, have been vocal about not wanting to have children.
