A dad-of-five who would eat four bacon butties for breakfast says he did not want to leave his home because his weight left him with little confidence.
Paul Barraclough, from Denton, Tameside, weighed 22 stone and was taking 20 tablets a day to treat several different health conditions - including type 2 diabetes, hypertension and gout.
His mental health was suffering, and the 56-year-old was also living with depression.
