Have you ever met a provider that was thinner than her photos?  Only once for me, and I was worried she was sick.

Yes, to number 3, on 3 occasions that I can recall.

I don't know how many pounds the camera adds but I have been pleasantly surprised a few times.

Yes, No, No  

The last one is debatable, because it had happened when I tipped. So not sure if that qualifies.

A regular said as went to pay “Happy Birthday”
Then we went out for drinks.

I often tip a little on spec by just putting it in the envelope, especially if I don't have the exact change.  I have had several say I gave them too much and try to hand me back the difference.  

3)  Covered on a review I posted years ago.  Planned on a solo date.  Door opens there are two ladies.  Once I was in the room I was confused.  Turned out to be three sum sampling date.  A BOGO.  Had a wonderful time so I paid their going rate for duos.  

It's not often, but I have seen a handful of providers who just aren't that photogenic who actually do look "better than their pics"

The thinner provider I recall the best was REALLY thin, as in Karen-Carpenter-like thin.  Like you I was concerned if she was ill.  But another provider I knew well knew this thin provider and filled me in.  I didn’t see the thin provider again.  

A couple of years ago, there was a lady I was seeing on a pretty regular basis for a few months. She was accustomed to me tipping her well in addition to the donation. Over time, she also trusted me to the point that I would pay her after the festivities, not before.
As things sometimes happen, we guys stop hobbying for a while, so when winter approached, I stopped seeing her.

Three or four thinner looking than their photos.  I thought that was a plus.  Others appear a bit more ahhhh "healthy"

#1..yes she was and thinner AND had larger balcony than her post...#2-yes..stated 21 in ad was 19 when we met...#3....dont know if this counts,but i see local provider that charges me regular rates,but turns off clock and i never have to leave until we are both finished

Agreed, I've had that happen on exactly ONE occasion.

There is agency in va where the escorts are almost always thinner than the pics look

So was thin provider sick, anorexic, or just got in shape?

My local ATF had told me to start paying her less when my income decreased. Prior to that, as I was making better money, I would pay her about 130-150% of her fee. I did so because she normally would be with clients for 30 minutes or less, but we always hung out for at least 2 and usually 3 hours.  Granted, we only spent 20-30 minutes taking care of business, but I also knew that she could make more by not seeing me most of the time.  When she knew my income was about to drop, she encouraged me to just pay her the normal fee even though we would still hang out for hours.  It’s just one of the many reasons I’ve been seeing her regularly for over a decade.

I did have a pro cut all future meets by 16% after our first.

#3 prolly bc I don’t tip as often as you guys do

Coke.

1) One gal was almost skeletal. I walked out and gave a $50 donation.

Yes, No, No.

Coming across a provider who looks like her pics is a win for most of us. Coming across a provider who looks better than her pics is like winning the lottery.

I had a similar experience with Becca Blossoms, who has since retired.
