A dad whose weight caused him to break his bed looks unrecognisable after losing over 14 stone.
Barrie Stewart, from Birkenhead, said he's surprised he's still alive after spending 30 years eating around 5,000 calories a day through a diet of crisps and takeaways, washed down with 6-8 cans of beer or cider. But after going to see his doctor Barrie was given the wake up call he needed to lose weight and he has now lost a whopping 14st 7lbs in total.
Barrie told the ECHO: "I'm shocked now that I've changed my life that I got myself in that position. I'm surprised I'm still here or my bones never crumbled.
