Neil King has eaten more than half a tonne of beans in the last nine months and has seen his weight fall from 30st (190.5kg) to just under 20st (127kg).

The beans have replaced the entire pack of biscuits he used to eat for breakfast, the two Mars bars he had as a mid-morning snack, the full English breakfast for lunch, the afternoon snack of a couple of packets of crisps, his roast dinners and the eight pints of lager and a nightly kebab.
