A South Carolina fitness instructor made cryptic posts about 'disgust and resentment' just days before she vanished, it was revealed Wednesday.
Elana Moore, 39, mysteriously vanished on June 11 after a series of cryptic messages on social media before her body was discovered underneath a bridge. A cause of death has not been revealed.
The personal trainer was an active social media user, but abruptly stopped posting around a month before she disappeared. Moore was last seen checking in at a Planet Fitness in Lexington on June 11 just before 7pm.
Hours later, she was seen walking across the parking lot of a Publix just after 9pm and heading toward a wooded area behind a Lowe's, the US Sun reported.
Moore was reported missing by her husband, Brannon Slice, on June 12 and her body was discovered by law enforcement five days later.
On a second Instagram account, however, Moore shared emotional messages, including a recount of how someone let her 'destroy' herself to keep 'us' alive,' messages seen by TMZ revealed.
In the post, Moore said that she felt 'exhausting hatred' from the ordeal and added: 'I never wanted to look at someone I once loved with disgust and resentment.'
The heart-wrenching message detailed how a person 'watched me love you with everything I had,' only to 'hurt me anyway.'

'...you turned love into something painful, something heavy, something I now have to heal from every single day,' the message continued.
'I hate what you did to me. I hate the memories that won't leave me alone, and more than anything, I hate that a part of me still mourns the person I thought you were.'
A post from December 2025 described a 'dehumanizing' heartbreak, according to the outlet.
Another post, however, indicated that she felt she was healing and wrote: 'War is over.'
'You are no longer my first thought in the morning nor the last thought at night. You are not in my heart anymore or on my mind and I don't think about you like I used to... I feel free now, like I can breathe properly again, like I'm not tied down to something that was hurting me,' the message read.
'I'm moving forward without looking back, and for the first time in a long time, I feel at peace with it.'
Mendy Miller, a friend of the personal instructor, said she had been aware of Moore's journey to rid her life of 'toxic' people, including friends.
Miller told the outlet that Moore's disappearance was 'absolutely shocking,' and it was incredibly out of character for her to stop posting on social media and vanish so suddenly.

A friend to the personal trainer claimed that Moore had been 'paranoid' in the weeks leading up to her disappearance, and said she had been expressing fear for her life
The investigation into Moore's death only grew more baffling after an autopsy revealed no evidence of traumatic injury, including bruising, blunt force trauma, strangulation or lacerations.
But Miller said she believes someone was behind her friend's mysterious death, and told the outlet: 'For her to just to be found dead in the woods makes no sense ... anyone who knows her would see this. Someone had to have done something to her.'
Another friend to the personal trainer claimed to TMZ that Moore had been 'paranoid' in the weeks leading up to her disappearance, and said she had been expressing fear for her life.
Lauren Beasley, a third friend, told Fox News: 'She is very active on social media so her going radio [silence] for the last month is out of character.'
Investigators had said they did not suspect foul play in Moore's death one day before her body was discovered, and said her husband was 'not a person of interest at the current moment.'
Lee Snell, a close friend to the couple, said they were all 'deeply saddened and distressed' by Moore's death.
'This amazing couple were married two years ago by my by husband in Columbia, South Carolina. I have been in daily contact with Brannon and his family,' Snell wrote on Facebook.
She further asked for respect for Slice's privacy.

Sondra Rachelle Campbell, another close friend of Moore's, however, raised 'red flags' concerning her friends disappearance.
Campbell claimed the pair were having martial problems, and told NewsNation that she thought 'my friend was struggling for her life.'
'I think she was literally afraid for her life,' she told the outlet.
Moore's death remains under investigation, as the coroner's office told the Sun that 'additional evaluation is required, including histological studies, review of medical records and toxicology testing.'
The Daily Mail reached out to the Lexington County Coroner's Office and the Lexington Police Department for comment.
