20 people who were considered "ugly ducklings" at school and now have their personal revenge
The transition period between adolescence and adulthood can be particularly difficult for some, especially when it comes to personal apprearances. It is an age of change, in which we look in the mirror and 90% of us try to find ways to improve. Our hair, weight, clothes - everything carries more weight when you go to school and compare yourself to peers. People often fear the judgment of others and their self-esteem seems to fall more with each passing day. Over time, then, you learn to appreciate what you have: accepting yourself is the first step towards improvement. After that, a good haircut and a good diet can always help improve your appearance. The important thing is to do it to feel good about yourself and not just to go along with whatever is in fashion.
The people in this photo list were considered "ugly ducklings", but look at how they transformed in a short time:
1. Not that he was an unattractive guy in the first picture, but the difference between before and after is truly remarkable!
Undoubtedly, physical exercise practiced with constancy and the right diet bring great results. This guy must have spent many hours in the gym!
2. 18 years VS 24 years: and quite a few pounds of a difference ...
3. At 13 you are very different and life doesn't always smile on you ... but then things change!
This girl is not sure how she found "her way", but she is happy with the person she has become at 21.
4. Between 27 and 37, all sorts of things have happened!
Growing up and "getting old" isn't that bad and this woman is fully convinced. Within ten years she totally changed her look and she took care of her body, managing to lose a lot of wait.
5. A transformation which was not only physical but also mental
This guy went through the biggest transformation in his belief system: he realized he wasn't going anywhere by continuing to use drugs, so he decided to make a radical change in his life by getting back in line. Now, at 27, he's a completely different guy!
6. Aged 17 ... we've all been there!
7. Now she's found her groove!
8. When he was 17 they made fun of him ...
"They told me I looked like Hurley from Lost," said this guy. Today he is 27 years old and, fortunately for his health, he has changed a lot!
9. That terrible stage called puberty
10. A lot of things can happen between the ages of 15 and 19!
11. "At 17 I loved pizza and I felt insecure. Today I'm 25, I still love pizza, but I feel better about myself"
12. An insecure 14-year-old with braces VS a 36-year-old woman, happy and fulfilled!
13. "I lost almost 100 pounds and have been a full-time model ever since!"
14. "Guys, come on! We'll all get through this safe and sound!"
15. When you react to life's difficulties in the right way and come out stronger than before!

Having the strength to change is not easy but, as all these testimonies also remind us, it is possible! Often, it takes very little to enhance your strong points, you just need to know how to recognize them and give them due consideration. Finally, the adolescent period is certainly the most difficult to live through, but one thing is certain: we all come out of it, stronger than before!
