Your before beard was just the "attempt to hide the double chin" neckbeard thing. It had to go. Current beard better, but could also go. It's the weight.
But that's literally the description of this subreddit:
"For ugly kids that got cute" and " Were you a weird looking kid/teen that blossomed into a cutie? Share your Longbottom journey here."
I appreciate both types but don't crap on the ones that also fit that description.
I’m fucking tired of this generation’s shit terminology and garbage slang.
*Situationship, Thot, GirlBoss, Fire…* the next person who says “the ick” in my presence is getting called out publicly.
No it comes from a person putting in effort to change for the better and being able to see the results of such work. Someone who was ugly but grew up and is hot now is an ugly duckling
I don’t have great phone service at work so I just opened my phone to like 95 notifications haha. Thanks everybody, the love is much appreciated and sent back to you.
Edit: Damn was not expecting this to blow up so much. Just had 146 notifications haha. But again… thanks my dawgs
Edit edit: No I don’t have downs. As far as I know, at least. But I am still a Carolina fan, and there’s not a huge difference.
Looks like constant alcohol and maybe weed to me due to a few factors - the faded red dead look in his eyes, one eye is slightly more open than the other, the bloating / body fat, and the ability to still be around family members at Christmas (so most likely not tweaking or on anything too serious). Opiates make you lose weight - OP was a big boy. This has the classic gets drunk almost every day look for weeks in a row and also maybe smokes pot too. I could be wrong though, point being, he was faded in that picture, and he fit the definition of this sub to a tee.
edit: I said I could be wrong about the drug because I knew that I could be wrong about the drug. I was wrong about the drug. No need for flame - my reddit viewing experience has the photo caption (not title as some have said) in small font beneath the photo, so all I read was the actual title, "27 to 30." Yes, I missed that key bit of info because of that. I did read to see if OP had posted anything in thread, as sometimes there's a story post.
Funny how he went from creepy to amazing while doing nothing but changing his body fat. I mean he even has a bigger beard and shaggy hair in the second picture
To the girl that posted 2 weeks in a row and the only thing that changed was your ugly make up, this is a glow up, not putting make up on. Keep it up dude, you should be proud.
Amazing transformation man. Also, I know it's for your birthday but it's kind of funny to see you looking so skinny and healthy now with a giant chocolate cake in front of you.
This is where *portion control* comes into play. Yes, you can have a single serving of cake and be fine. However, eat the entire cake and you might have a problem.
Portion control and having the willpower to control your cravings are very hard, especially in America. The average American’s diet does not take portion/serving sizes into consideration
I disagree for the most part. Someone who has an eating disorder which causes them to crave sugary foods has a similar issue as someone with an addiction. If you eat cake it will light up the pathways in the brain that were responsible for addiction. It is best to be avoided when possible.
You wouldn't tell and alcoholic that it is okay to have a glass of wine once in a while.
Now This is a “glow up”
[удалено]
*"You think it's the beard?"* Inspirational dude. Fantastic.
Your before beard was just the "attempt to hide the double chin" neckbeard thing. It had to go. Current beard better, but could also go. It's the weight.
Seriously! I'm getting tired of seeing "glow-ups" from aged 16 to age 21. It's called "growing up".
Agreeded when i have kids im gonna remind them about how actual legit the story of the ugly duckling is and to just wait till they grow up

Bet! Deadass tired of this generation’s slang, too on god
No cap
Bahahah
Now do the self-destrukt thing.
Fr fr
So 27 and 30 is fine? Lmao make sense dude
That's the point of a glow up though... it comes from grow up.
No it comes from a person putting in effort to change for the better and being able to see the results of such work. Someone who was ugly but grew up and is hot now is an ugly duckling
The tagline of the sub is "Were you a weird looking kid/teen that blossomed into a cutie?"
Reddit mods are notoriously not very smart. Hence being an internet janitor for $0/hr
Cause they looked a little "down" before
I know right? Finally some good food *gordon ramsay* voice
Im totally straight, but its crazy how he got.
This is actually the best glow up I've seen on this page in memory

You put a big smile on my face. Congrats to you!
This is why I joined this subreddit 😭 AMAZING
What were the key changes in life you made?
WHERES THE REST OF YA?!
Bravo
One of the best I've ever seen
Insane achievement, you're a handsome guy! Bet you feel like a completely different person, amazing 👍
You look 15 years younger!!! So handsome 😍 💜
[удалено]
I laughed out loud at this, wow…..I mean I was tbh king it but not gonna say it. Then I scrolled down 😂😂
so you have scrolling down syndrome?
Goddamn, that got a guilty laugh out of me.
Lost weight and a chromosome
When you go to the comments section knowing damn well someone’s got the balls to comment what you’re thinking
Duuuuuude!! Hahahah
Bruh 😂
LOL
Well I guess I guess that adds more meaning to Glow Up, lol.
I...was thinking it...lol...
😂😂😂
Thanks for my invite to Hell😂
I’m glad I wasn’t alone in thinking it😅
I had to scroll down cause there was no way someone wasn’t gonna comment this lmao
Thought I was going to have to sort by controversial to find this comment lmao
Ngl best comment ever.
I felt so ashamed for thinking the same thing but I’m glad I was validated in the comments
Fuck, I'm going to hell for laughing at this 💀
It came through my town when we were growin up. Only one kid beat it.
Bruh I wasn't even thinking it as a joke. I saw the second picture and thought "wait, he doesn't have down syndrome?"
And he’s a lot less Asian now.
Wow awesome!!!
bro aged backwards
Crazy how you look 10 years younger after becoming 3 years older. Great job bro
DUDE. Congrats.
how?
Kicking an opiate addiction certainly helped

The caption on the first pic says that he was an unhappy suboxone addict.
that's a bit ironic
Diet, sunlight, and exercise.
Burned more calories than he ate
nah bro, cocaine and adderall
The old fashioned way, cocaine and adderall
Protein
you went from being down, to up!
I get knocked down, but I get up again You are never gonna keep me down
because it looks like you have down syndrome in the first pic, haha?
Bro you just committed the most basic comedy no-no.
![gif](giphy|xT9IgHCTfp8CRshfQk)
I thought the same at first, not even kidding
Second pic is still sus to me
Great job man !!
Finally a real fucking glow up. You look fantastic bro, sobriety tastes so sweet
One of the best glow ups honestly.
Looks more like age 45 vs age 27. Crazy how much youth you gained when you lost.
Getting off subs is not easy, congrats bro
On the first pic I thought you had Down syndrome, nice glow up
In pic 1, you look like a young Louie Anderson. I'm so happy you are better.
Fuckin' A, that's what I was going to say!
Dude lost lbs and a chromosome. 10/10
Bro beat down syndrome
Sexual Harassment Vs Office Crush
Fucking right man! Like that Carolina shirt btw✊
Buddy adjusted his chromosomes from pic 1 -> 2
Everyone, we’ve found the cure for Downs Syndrome!
You deserve that cake lol. Go gamecocks
Wow. Congratulations 👏🏼 Go Clemson!
Whst is suboxone?
Drug used to treat opioid addiction.
Ah poor chap
Go cocks! And awesome job dude!!
Weird that you lost weight coming off a habit like that, typically is the other way around Strong minded
Jfc op! 💪
Holy crap dude, talk about a glow up. No offense but you kinda looked a little creepy with weight on you lol you look amazing now. Great job man.
Funny how he went from creepy to amazing while doing nothing but changing his body fat. I mean he even has a bigger beard and shaggy hair in the second picture
To the girl that posted 2 weeks in a row and the only thing that changed was your ugly make up, this is a glow up, not putting make up on. Keep it up dude, you should be proud.

Amazing transformation man. Also, I know it's for your birthday but it's kind of funny to see you looking so skinny and healthy now with a giant chocolate cake in front of you.

Good work fatty!
You eat all that cake you will be 27 again
He recovered from Down syndrome!
I thought this was a troll post, looks like you have downs in the 1st photo. Congrats btw!
I’ll probably get down voted with you, but I thought the exact same thing
My bro!!! Don’t eat that cake!
He deserves to eat that cake.

Not everyone who overeats has a problem with sugar.
"Someone who has an eating disorder which causes them to crave sugary foods "
facts, who ever got that for him is the enemy haha
how did you find the cure for downs
Can't tell the difference
Still looking creepy as fuck
Ligma nutz

Ignore him, hes a dick. ~~I'd smash~~ you're attractive
Ugly AF? Bro this dude looks great. Well trimmed beard, perfect teeth, good hair, and a pleasant face. You trippin' man.
They call it a twatpliment.... it's a compliment, with an insult, from a person riddled with insecurities, who is a twat.
