Rob Kardashian says he gained 40 pounds in only 2 months: can you see it?

Rob Kardashian

Here are some photos of Rob Kardashian yesterday visiting “Kris Jenner’s office” (I know, right?) while carrying a small, prepackaged meal of some sort and a large bottle of water. Now, the dude has never been a good-looking guy that could stop traffic, but he does look a bit heftier lately. Rob himself has noticed too, which may account for the sudden healthier eating kick. In fact, he claims that he’s gained forty pounds in the past two months since he and Rita Ora broke up. If you’ll remember, that was a very messy breakup with Rob having some form of Twitter meltdown and blaming Rita for sleeping with the whole of England or something. And Rob says that, in the aftermath, he’s gorged himself on crappy food and basically lost his girlish figure. I hate to pick on anyone for their weight, but this couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.

Is it even possible to gain forty pounds in two months? I can see where it could happen if someone intentionally wants to pack on a lot of muscle and decides to hit the protein shakes and weight-gaining supplement powder pretty hard. Just ask Hugh Jackman. But Rob’s case seems like mindless comfort seeking with a ton of junk food. I suppose he could be telling the truth about forty pounds. Here are the details of Rob’s weight gain:

Rob Kardashian

Rob Kardashian stepped out in Los Angeles yesterday (Feb. 19) after revealing he’s packed on 40 pounds since splitting with Rita Ora in Dec. 2012 on the latest episode of “Kourtney & Kim Take Miami.”

The 25-year-old admitted that he hadn’t been taking care of his body during or after his romance with 22-year-old Ora, confessing his love of comfort food and random sex on the Feb. 17 episode.

“All I did was waste a lot of money and gain 40 pounds,” Rob told his sisters over dinner. “I need to focus on me. That’s all I wanna be about.”

“Rob got out of a really weird relationship. They were actually together for about a year but Rob was never allowed to admit that they were actually an item,” Khloe explained during the show. “Because she’s in the entertainment industry, she wanted to present herself to the world as a single girl. I think Rob got really depressed through this relationship.”

Rob, who famously lost a ton of weight while competing on “Dancing With The Stars” in 2011, wants to get back in the gym and try his best to move on from Ora.

Addressing his tweets about her their breakup (in which he claimed Ora cheated on him multiple times), Rob said, “I posted what I posted to keep myself from taking her back. Every time she messed up, I took her back for over a year now. I just had to do that to make her hate me.”

But as Khloe said, “The best form of revenge is a good body!”

[From HuffPo]

I love Rob’s explanation of how he only tweeted that Rita cheated on him with 20 men as a means of ensuring that he’d never take her back. I mean, there’s no real reason why she went out with him in the first place, but I honestly doubt it was a case of them continually breaking up and him “taking her back” because she begged for it. Bitch, please.

These photos show Rob back in early October of last year. He wasn’t exactly ripped back then, but he’s definitely gained weight in the past few months.

    that reminds me…our Treadclimber’s getting installed today! whoa-hoo! 😀

    • BB says:

      Rob Kardashian seems very needy and emotional all the time. He says the weight gain was because of the breakup and he longs to be in a relationship. As if being in a relationship is the most important thing to do. Rob has a college degree and like all the other Kardashian siblings (Kourtney & Khloe)he rides the Kim Kardashian talent train of not having any talent. He should be focusing on making something out of himself.

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        I agree. Plus (and I’m ashamed to admit it), I watched one episode of the kardASSians awhile ago where Khloe and Lamar were locking their food pantry and putting an alarm on the refrigerator because Rob was eating them out of house and home. Rob was a compulsive over eater long before this breakup.

  2. DeltaJuliet says:

    “I need to focus on me. That’s all I wanna be about.”

    That’s freakin’ hilarious.

  3. Doroles says:

    I find him disgusting.

    • RocketMerry says:

      I know I should be on that wagon too, I mean… he’s a Kardashian after all, he can’t be much more deep and humane than his siblings, and all that. Still, I’m very ashamed to admit I don’t find him at all repulsive.

      Actually, he’s exactly the type of guy I tend to end up being attracted to: big, tall, dumb, douchy, insenstitive, dumb, mean, manipulative, dumb and on the soft side of slightly over-weight. Sigh. Did I mention dumb? Yeah, I always win the top prize in the guy department.

      • PinkG says:

        dumb, douchy, insenstitive, dumb, mean, manipulative, dumb

        Are you talking about Rob or Hippo-Ass?

      • TG says:

        @RocketMerry – You made me laugh so much with your comment. At least you can laugh at yourself that is a step in the right direction. I think you will be fine but I have found that when we are attracted to people who bring us down it is because we need to work on ourselves. You are better than those jerks. Rob is the bigges p*ssy on the plant. He is gross and makes me sick. What a lazy mama’s boy.

    • Shannon says:

      Ditto. Totally looks like a fat slob and is not attractive at all. Even thin, he’s gross.

  4. Aiobhan says:

    Yes. Break up weight is the worst. It is like adding insult to injury- especially if you really liked the person. But in this case it is karma because what he did to her on twitter was immature and disgusting.

  5. Amy says:

    He recently claimed to run 10 miles a day. Please. He might take 10 steps from his couch to the fridge, but he sure as hell isn’t hoofing it on a treadmill.

    • JenD says:

      He runs 10 miles like his sister Kim is a size 4. Numbers must really confuse that family.

      • mel says:

        Please, do not forget that Kimmy wears jeans size 27

      • virginia5 says:

        I don’t want to sound like I am bragging, but whenever I look at the tag on my jeans(size 5) I think of Kim saying she is a size 4. ahaha. No way in hell would she fit a size 4.

      • MonicaQ says:

        You mean Euro sizes or something? Because I’m an 18 and I’d guess I’m bigger than Kim Kardashian.

    • cmc says:

      Seriously, I remember reading that too! For what it’s worth, he claimed his perfect/favorite distance was an easy 10, like Prefontaine used to do in the evenings. I don’t remember whether he actually claimed to do it EVERY day though.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        I love running but I find it hard to enjoy any run longer than 8 miles. I do the long runs, but I find them…uncomfortable.

        But as was stated above, this guy isn’t running anywhere.

  6. KellyinSeattle says:

    Sadly, he looks awful. I think he got his T-shirt at a flea market…it’d be funny if he’ gained the 40 lbs all in his ass like Kim 🙂 I miss the Big-Butt family on SNL.

  7. I.want.shoes says:

    Damn, 40 lbs in 2 months… you’ve got to be shooting Crisco into your veins to achieve that.

    • Ok says:

      No actually it is possible. I was put on a medication by my Gastroenterologist ( the medication was called Amitiza). I gained about 20 pounds each month.

      I started to panic about the weight gain and went on weight watchers and exercises. To no avail.

      I put on a total of 80 lbs in about 10 months before figuring out it was the medication. My doctor pulled me off all medications ( I was only on 2 meds). And I did not put on any weight after I went off the Amitiza.

      I did not attribute it to the Amiriza sooner because I had been on the Amitiza for about 3 month before I started to gain.

      And when the gaining started, the weight came on at about 20 lbs per month. It was like I was in fat-twilight zone-hell.

  8. dahlianoir says:

    He’s looking for a brand endorsement. Weight Watchers Please Hire Me !

    • Winnie says:

      I was thinking this too; angling for some kind of weight loss endorsement.

    • Nanz says:

      What’s going to say the same thing. How much do you want to bet that he gained weight for an endorsement? He’s probably already signed the deal; he just needed to gain the weight.

    • Bad Irene says:

      This by a million! Or some sort of dvd showing how he got his figure back after having a food baby.

  9. Jayna says:

    Rob is a depressed person always. He got a degree and is basically lazy. He is ignored by mom for the girls, but he is not a self-starter or self-motivated. All the little businesses in the world started by him will go nowhere even with mom’s help, which there isn’t much of. He needs to work for someone, learn structure.

  10. Dani says:

    I don’t know about 40 lbs but my god what happened to him??? He used to be cuteish a few years ago, even last year. Rough. I don’t doubt the Rita Ora thing; she may have kept her mouth shut when they broke up but she’s got as much class as Rihanna.

    • Dawn says:

      Well that is still more than the KrapTrahian family has…all of them. So no contest. This is about money and only money.

    • Julie says:

      From what I’ve seen of Rita Ora she seems like a normal young woman who enjoys her life. She doesn’t post naked pictures of herself smoking weed for attention so that makes her classier than Rihanna. She has a terrible fashion sense though.

  11. aud says:

    doesn’t matter, he’ll still be a douche even if he loses the extra weight

  12. HotPockets says:

    This is a pr move. Yes, he put on weight, but!

    What company will endorse him to loose that weight? Also, pay him $$$ to loose weight and before we know it, he will drop that “40” pounds and he will be shilling protein shakes, pills, work out gear etc etc. We see you pimp Kris, but I get it, he needs a backup plan since his sock line isn’t producing and “law school” isn’t happening.

    • Red32 says:

      Yup. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s been taking a steroid of some kind (can make you gain 20 lbs. in a month) then gets a weight loss sponsorship when he stops taking them. It’s a Weight Watchers miracle!

  13. Jane says:

    Is there no one in this “family” that is not a famewhore? Good grief.

  14. Dawn says:

    Yes it is possible to gain 40 pounds in two months. I quit smoking and it happened to me. Other than that this kid is famous for what again? Being the brother to one of the biggest ho in Tinsletown and other than that I think he is just a college drop out looking for something for nothing. He not at all impressive, but who in his family is?

    • ataylor says:

      He’s not a college dropout. He graduated with a B.A. in Business from USC in 2009. He is just…unmotivated? Depressed? Lazy? Lost?

    • why not says:

      Congratulations! Smoking is really bad for you. I’m so glad I finally quit. It was hard at first but now I don’t miss it.

  15. Post-It's says:

    I wonder if his socks still fit him…

  16. sheila says:

    yadda yadda yadda he’s still a d-bag and this is probably a pr stunt (or at least a part of it).

  17. K-rock says:

    Definitely gained, no doubt.

  18. fsbiaf says:

    he bears an uncanny resemblance to my half-kuwaiti cousin

  19. Dizzle says:

    I can’t believe I got through that whole article and no mention of Quick Trim…

    • Hahahahaha says:

      its comming dear..Mommy Pimpo Nose is looking @ the reactions online,& now that YA’ll gave here the idea…(she had it alreaddy, but jus wants to read your comments,as so Neady Mc Lazy)she can look @ WW and say see:now ya have to…Smart woman…GJEEZ us Christ.

  20. LA Native says:

    Maybe he’s the surrogate?

  21. Barbara says:

    I prefer he and Khloe of this “family”. I think his mom has a tight grip on his balls and sister Kim does all she can to undermine him. I confess I do not watch the show.

  22. virginia5 says:

    soo what does he do with his life?

  23. Hahahahaha says:

    without reading the comments: im so sad for him.He needs to be saved..Now ima gonna read the comments.

  24. elceibeno08 says:

    I bet Rob’s mom is not liking it. She always expects her children to be in shape.

  25. ldub says:

    he ate rita ora in his final act of retaliation.

  26. Murphy says:

    “this couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.”

    Please tell me thats sarcasm…this guy is such an a-hole

  27. Erinn says:

    If he is actually struggling with a bout of depression, I feel bad for him. Even if he is an ass, I don’t wish that on anyone. When I was at my worst as far as my depression goes, I gained a lot of weight. Comfort food is my enemy.

    IF Rob has a legitimate case of depression, then I really hope the comments ona thread about him would be different; not making fun of his weight gain, or any of that sort of thing. Even if someone isn’t the best person, nobody should suffer with that. And nobody who has not had to deal with mental illness themselves should feel equiped to cast stones.

    • Poink517 says:

      I’m totally with you. I’ve been dealing with depression/anxiety for a long time, but lucky for me, I respond very well to medication. I feel for anyone going through it.

  28. erika says:

    whooaaa…he is huge. eeeks, look at the extra neck he is trying to grow…

    poor guy. he got it all wrong, KK is supposed to gain 300 pds, not Rob! I do feel bad for him. His sister’s constantly rip him to shreds, especially KK.

    If I were a Kardashian I would out myself from the family. at all costs, go live in a studio aprt, work a lame job…just to disassociate w/ them…

  29. clumsyme says:

    He looks like the male version of Kim, but with her old face.

  30. skuddles says:

    He’s just trying to keep up with the Kardashians (well the lardy Kim anyway).

  31. decorative item says:

    Knowing this family, they will have a book out next month titled, “How To Gain 40 Pounds In Two Months”. It just never ends!

  32. MsAubra says:

    Why Kim cut her hair?!?!

    …oh, wait!!

  33. Maritza says:

    I wouldn’t be surprised if mama Kris has it all planned out for Rob to participate in some celebrity fitness reality show. Something like Kevin Federline did.

    • MsAubra says:

      either that or she will most definitely get him an endorsement with some diet pill company, sure to rake in more dough than his line of socks

  34. bar world land says:

    Uhhh are we sure this isn’t just a picture of Kim without weave/makeup/spanx?

  35. Kristen says:

    It is AMAZING how much he is starting to look exactly like his sister Khloe!!!!

  36. rightgrrl says:

    Took me years of constant munchie eating and finally marriage to pack on that extra 40. But sure I guess it is possible to pack it on in 2 months… He’s pretty young so he needs to shut up about hus breakup and lose it (as do I but it doesn’t just fall off like it used to).
    Some people look okay when they gain weight. He doesn’t (nor do I) so it’s time to face the music, lol…

  37. palermo says:

    Yes, he looks fat as hell, especially his butt. He does NOTHING but lie around, eat, drink, get tattoos. I’m sorry, but he is a loser. I lost any respect I might have had for him when he talked so nastily about Rita Ora on Twitter. Utterly childish and vindictive.

  38. kitkerenina says:

    He’s aware how much he gained, and responsible (somewhat?) Think there’s hope he’ll turn this around. And if he’s paid to do so, he’ll be one of only a handful of men to take such a drastic public step. Good on him either way.

  39. G says:

    Puh-lease! This has Kris Jenner’s grimey hands all over it. Gain some weight and I’ll get you a weight loss deal son.

    • megs says:

      EXACTLY!!! He is either going to be a spokesperson for some weight loss junk for men or he is going to try to be on some weight loss reality show.

  40. Cece says:

    Everyone in that family blames their problems on others. Get some self respect, boy, and quit whining. And that Khloe needs to shut her mouth about everyone else’s relationship. Bottom line — if you are stupid enough to get involved with one of these horrid, evil people, you will be bashed forever after.

  41. april says:

    He needs to practice his dance moves he learned on DWTS and lose the weight.

  42. Aud says:

    This family is just plain unattractive.

  43. Pandora says:

    Is this like the tale of Dorian Grey??

    Except the portrait is Rob Kardashian, and the Dorians are his sisters.

    Kim has been eating for 2 and Rob has gained the weight, damn 🙁

    They need to 911 Macbeths other two crones and get them and Kris to reverse the spell.

  44. The Original Mia says:

    This sad, pathetic man child needs to get a life & a job. Loser!

  45. Elisabeth says:

    Blob Kardashian

  46. KC says:

    “I hate to pick on anyone for their weight, but this couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.”

    My thoughts exactly. I laughed, then I felt bad for laughing, then I remembered that he’s in a three way tie for worst Kardashian with Kris and Kim.

  47. Rob'sExGirlfriend says:

    Wow. He’s one tubby bitch.

  48. lisa says:

    being the most useless kardashian is really saying something

  49. Anne says:

    If he’s really dealing with depression then I truly feel sorry for him, even if he is a jerk and a Kardashian. I have depression problems and I’ll either gain or lose a bunch of weight, and trust me when you’re at your lowest, weight gain is another thing that keeps you down.

  50. Mar says:

    I’ve gained 10 lbs in a week so yes 40 in 8 is very possible.
    Why does everything the Kardashian’s say always sound so stupid and shallow? I still can’t believe they are so popular

  51. Joanna says:

    Hmm, I don’t get all the hate on him. What has he done to make him a douche? he seems nice enough, just spoiled baby of family. and that crack on rita was just like dumb young kid stuff. if she was cheating on him constantly, i can understand him being so hurt that he stupidly lashed out for a minute. this is the age of twitter and dummies posting their every thought and bowel movement on youtube, facebook and twitter. so he messed up and said something he shouldn’t for a minute. he’s still alright in my book.

    • palermo says:

      Dumb young kid? He’s a grown man of 25. By that age most men have been to the service, they are well on their way in their careers, maybe even married or have a kid. He doesn’t even have his own place or a job. That sock line is a load of crap, just like the DASH stores, all made up – none of them are stylists, they just put their names on other peoples work.

  52. TG says:

    Thanks everyone for the laughs. I LOL at every comment and even have tears in my eyes. I really can’t stand this mama’s boy. I really can’t stand grown babies who can’t make decisions with out mommy telling them what to do. Yuck. I admit to having watched all the seasons of the Kartrashian’s, except Khloe’s last season and I am no longer watching them this season. I finally got tired of them and even don’t comment that much on their posts because I don’t want to give them attention, but this one was too funny and I couldn’t resist. I have seen only a minute or so here and there of their show and I swear to god it is just a recycle of every other miami visit. I think they are on their last legs since I can’t be the only person who has lost interest.

  53. superkitty says:

    He wants to look like Jonah Hill to get Rita back, lol.

  57. islandwalker says:

    “I want to focus on me.” Isn’t that the K-family mantra? Have they ever looked at anyone in the world besides themselves? Cue Weight Watchers deal….in 3..2..1

  58. ViloDeMenus says:

    I didn’t even recognize him, he sure lost what little looks he had fast. Maybe it’s the beginning of the end for them and they’ll all start falling apart and we can be done with them once and for all. The only thing that will keep them relevant is if Kim’s baby looks like Kris Humphries.

    Run Ye Run!
