Just a little story about how this happened... and I'm talking about gaining almost 30kg... not losing 10kg.

When I was younger, I was a competitive swimmer with my ultimate goal being competing for the Finnish national swimming team in the 2012 olympics. However, when I was at a competition, my tricep in my left arm ripped. My doctor couldn't find anything and told me it was just a strain. I kept swimming after a short break and found out later I just ripped it even more. Basically when I was 17 I was told I could never swim competitively again, because my arm wouldn't be the same again.

So I stopped. Only I kept eating the same way as I did when I would train 16 hours a week. I would drink 3 liters of cola a day. That's right. A day! And of course eat whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted. Without the training, it all settled and I gained a lot of weight within a year. 

I decided to lose the weight long time ago, but never really did anything about it... for at least a year. Then, at the start of 2013, I decided to really take it seriously. I have a stationary bike, which I use everyday for an hour burning around 700 calories. I even started swimming leisurely... Also my girlfriend of four years dumped me, which gave me another reason to change my life around.

Although I don't post much on loseit, I am very thankful for this subreddit! Just reading all these success stories really helps to keep me motivated. My goal is 80kg and become the sporty type again.

Thank you loseit!
