Why don’t diets seem to work?
OBESITY IN CHILDREN
Mr Mason, 48, now weighs 49st after shedding 20st to make him eligible for gastric bypass surgery, but is still believed to be the heaviest man alive today.
The former postman has now had the band fitted, and is understood to have told staff at Chichester Hospital, West Sussex, about his book plans during his three week stay.
He wants to tell people how he achieved his dramatic weight-loss, and will write all about it in the autobiography, which he is calling ‘The Journey’.
A source told The Sun: “He has been telling people in hospital how he has been writing this book and it will reveal how he has managed to lose so much weight. He has been in good spirits.”
Prior to the treatment, Mr Mason admitted eating 20,000 calories a day, eight times the amount needed by an average man.
His care bill costs taxpayers an estimated £100,000 a year and is believed to have topped £1 million over the last 15 years.
Firefighters had to demolish the front wall of Mr Mason’s former home in Ipswich so they could drive a fork lift truck inside to lift him out and put him into an ambulance when he needed a hernia operation in 2002.
Mr Mason took the title of the world’s heaviest man after Mexican Manuel Uribe, 43, more than halved his 90st weight to get married last year.
