"Lose weight or die"

December 6, 2006

Sometimes patients needs to hear it like it is:

Mr Ord, who weighed 33 stone (209.6kg) when he was 16, said he was devastated when told the news by his GP that he had a “very serious problem”.

He said he has now ditched his diet of pizzas, chips, pasties and chocolate and goes to the gym three times a week.

He said he was told that unless he lowered his Body Mass Index (BMI) of 65, he was unlikely to survive the next 10 years.
