Lena Dunham has come a long way since she became a household name in HBO’s Girls. The starlet has always promoted body positivity and flaunted her fluctuating weight. In 2017, Dunham debuted a notably thinner figure which she claims led to her being “complimented all day and propositioned by men.” But she wasn’t happy.

Dunham was struggling with endometriosis pain that eventually led to her having a hysterectomy at the age of 31. She later gained nearly 30 pounds after recovery. The star claimed that she was “happy, joyous and free” after the weight gain and enjoyed snacks, apps, and entrees. You do you, girl! Both versions of Dunham are gorgeous, but it’d be remiss to not mention the drastic difference extensions make. She looks like a totally different person.
