A chapel minister who’s health was in danger because of his weight has had his life saved by a TV show. The Rev Dylan Parry, who lives in Bridgend was one of the stars of FFIT Cymru, on S4C.
According to the 34-year-old, he had never known a time when he had been healthy and had been diagnosed with sleep apnoea. This is where your breathing stops and starts in your sleep, and can often be caused by obesity.
Dylan, who is the mister for chapels in Bridgend and Porthcawl tipped the scales at 26 stone but has now started adopting healthier habit with a new eating and fitness regime. He admitted at the start of the series that he had an unhealthy relationship with food and hated to look at himself in the mirror.
