Rob Kardashian's Extreme Body Evolution — From Slimline and Shaven-Headed to Tattooed, Obese and Stricken With Diabetes
2010
Rob Kardashian first stole the spotlight when his family's reality TV series, Keeping Up With the Kardashians, premiered. While savoring his newfound fame at the time, he and his sister Kim Kardashian attended Ocean Drive Magazine's 17th Anniversary party at the Delano in Miami Beach, Fla., in matching monochrome outfits.

The reality TV star, 37, joined his other sibling Khloé Kardashian during an outing around Miami Beach, Fla. They were spotted getting frozen drinks and trying out the best-seller that had 153-proof grain alcohol.
He appeared to have the same slim appearance at the time.
2012
Rob looked stylish in his all-black outfit when he arrived at a hotel and casino in Las Vegas, Nev., to celebrate his birthday.
The KUWTK star posed in front of the step-and-repeat at 1 Oak nightclub looking comparable to years before, rocking a slim face and slicked back hairstyle.
2013
The businessman, who is the only son of Robert Kardashian and Kris Jenner, reunited with his friends, including Kanye West, in London.
He started gaining weight at the time, putting the blame on the milkshakes he usually consumed when he still had a slimmer physique. There are nearly zero photos of the star between 2014 and 2015, as he became increasingly more self-concsious about his weight.
Kim told Today in 2015: "I think he’s just going through a phase where he’s not comfortable in his own skin. He is working really hard to get back to where he really wants to be."
Between 2015 and 2016, Rob was reportedly hospitalized twice after being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes.
