10 YEARS AGO HE MANAGED TO WIN A WEIGHT LOSS SHOW, AND THIS IS WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE NOW

Some years ago, a man achieved significant weight loss and won a competition, inspiring many with his transformation. Curious about his journey and how he looks now?

In 2008, Sam Ruhan won the third season of The Biggest Loser, an Australian reality show for overweight people.

Its name (The Biggest Looser) is a pun, as it can be understood as both “loser” and “loser the most.” A cash prize goes to the person who loses the most weight (as a percentage of their body weight) over the course of the show.

Sam was only 19 years old at the time; at the beginning of the show he weighed 154 kg, and by the end he managed to lose 71 kg.

Now 29, he became a firefighter and continues to lead a healthy lifestyle. He recently wrote a post about his transformation over 10 years:

“I wasn’t sure I would write this post. 10 years, however! What a time!

So much has happened—good, bad, in-between. Beautiful and terrible. I will say one thing: I am surrounded by amazing people, and I am immensely grateful to them for that.”

Here is his inspiring story in photographs:

He lost weight from 154 kg…

…to 83, losing 71 kg in 12 weeks

Over the past 10 years, he has continued to lead a healthy lifestyle.

“Now I can’t live without training, I love running and swinging with my brother”

He fulfilled his dream and became a firefighter

He even posed for a calendar with firefighters

Despite his excellent form, he is still shy

“I still don’t like taking my shirt off, even on the beach.”

“Even at the lowest point in life, you can turn everything around and make any dreams come true if you show perseverance and hard work.”
