Adopting a healthy lifestyle is not easy. It takes a lot of dedication and hard work to make lasting changes in your life. One man knows just how hard it can be to turn around your life.

It was only 10 years ago that Sam Rouen won the 2008 season of “The Biggest Loser.” The television show was a competition between overweight people to lose the most weight possible in 12 weeks. At the time, Sam was only 19 years old. He had spent a lifetime struggling with his weight, but he amazingly ended up winning the show.

During the show, Sam was offered help in replacing his unhealthy habits with new, healthy options. He took the show seriously and made major changes. Afterward, he continued to practice a healthy lifestyle.

When Sam first appeared on the show, he weighed 154 kilograms. By the end of the season, the young man had lost an impressive 71 kilograms. While he now looked amazing and felt great, Sam decided to continue the workouts and healthy habits that he learned on the show.

Sam wanted more than just a healthy lifestyle. He had a secret dream to become a firefighter. Before he took part in the show, his dream was impossible. Sam was too out of shape and overweight to be considered.

Once he lost weight on the show, his dreams suddenly became possible. Sam kept training and working out to prepare for his dream job. It has been 10 years since “The Biggest Loser,” and Sam is looking great. Instead of excess body fat, he has ripped, toned muscles.

The former television star looks like a fitness model. More importantly, Sam finally achieved his dreams. Because of his healthy lifestyle, hard work and commitment, he is finally a firefighter. Each day, he gets to save lives.

Now, working out has become a part of who he is instead of just a chore. Sam enjoys working out. He likes to go running, play sports and work out at the gym. Sam is in such amazing shape that he even modeled for an annual firefighters' calendar.

Recently, Sam reflected on his new life in an online post. While there have been good times and bad times, he has always felt appreciated and supported by the people closest to him. Plus, Sam has found love. He recently became engaged to his longtime girlfriend, Daniella. While the young man may still feel self-conscious about his body from time to time, he is feeling happier and healthier than he has ever been.
