Eating Tips From World's Fattest Man
PAUL MASON, labelled the world's fattest
man, is to share his diet tips in his autobiography.
Mason, 48, now weighs 49 stone (686lbs)
after shedding 20 stone to make him eligible for gastric bypass
surgery, but is still believed to be the heaviest man alive.
The former postman has now had the band
fitted, and is understood to have told staff at Chichester Hospital,
West Sussex, about his book plans during his three week stay. He
wants to tell people how he achieved his dramatic weight-loss, and
will write all about it in the autobiography, which he is calling
The Journey.
A source told The Sun: "He has been telling
people in hospital how he has been writing this book and it will
reveal how he has managed to lose so much weight. He has been in
good spirits."
Prior to the treatment, Mr Mason admitted
eating 20,000 calories a day, eight times the amount needed by an
average man. His care bill costs taxpayers an estimated £100,000 a
year and is believed to have topped £1m over the last 15 years.
Firefighters had to demolish the front wall
of Mason's former home in Ipswich so they could drive a fork lift
truck inside to lift him out and put him into an ambulance when he
needed a hernia operation in 2002.
Mason took the title of the world's heaviest
man after Mexican Manuel Uribe, 43, more than halved his 90 stone
weight to get married last year. |
