Previously forced to wear t-shirts and ‘saggy bottoms’ from plus-size retailers and order specially made suits for events like weddings, Jimmy decided to turn his life around after struggling to play with his four granddaughters.
'I thought bouncy castle was going to kill me - now I've lost 10st' A grandad who splashed out £3,000 a year on takeaways has transformed his life by losing an incredible 10 stone.
Now weighing in at a much healthier 15st 11lb, Jimmy has gone from a 5XL with a waistline over 50 inches to a double XL in just two years.
