'I weighed 30 stone because I just sat playing computer games all day'

A man who weighed 30 stone completely turned his life around when he swapped his computer games for daily walks. Sean Jones from Cwmbran has lost 15 stone in three years, halving his body weight.

The 30-year-old general labourer said one day he woke up and decided he had enough and couldn't continue living like this. He put an end to playing computer games and pushed himself to go for a walk every single day.

Discussing the moment he knew he had to change, Sean said: "I just had enough, I started going on walks, making healthier choices with my food, and the weight started flying off me. There is a hill behind my house that leads to a mountain, and I would walk that hill every day, I kept getting further and further until my body had enough, then the next day, I'd go a bit further."
