constant pain. 4 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,590 ‫A doctor's appointment gave me the slap in the face I needed. 5 00:00:13,590 --> 00:00:18,420 ‫I realized that if I don't drastically change my life I won't have one anymore. 6 00:00:18,450 --> 00:00:19,680 ‫No diet works for me. 7 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:24,240 ‫I was weak and one failed attempt after another made me think that that's life. 8 00:00:24,390 --> 00:00:28,910 ‫Today after a bit over two years I've lost over 40 kilograms. 9 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,230 ‫I weigh eighty six. 10 00:00:30,300 --> 00:00:31,230 ‫I'm energetic. 11

00:00:55,710 ‫My looks and my body work for my advantage especially my chosen profession. 19 00:00:56,340 --> 00:01:01,790 ‫But two years ago doing and I'm a tourist football game I stretch my knee ligaments and the doctors 20 00:01:01,790 --> 00:01:05,500 ‫diagnose it as a petrol here and recommended having a surgery. 21 00:01:05,550 --> 00:01:12,120 ‫I remember he said that I probably won't be able to run again in my life after the injury I couldn't 22 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:13,040 ‫function at all. 23 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,830 ‫I could barely walk and then leave the sport I used to do. 24 00:01:15,850 --> 00:01:17,920 ‫Very soon I started to put on some weight. 25 00:01:17,940 --> 00:01:23,400 ‫Needless to say I couldn't work as an actor has some roles required minimum of physical abilities that 26 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:24,590 ‫I just couldn't perform. 27 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:31,800 ‫As you can imagine I didn't like it so I decided to try the West swimming technique before
