A man whose size left him unable to buy clothes from the high street has shared his secret to shedding almost 10 stone. Jack Self, from Bolton, tipped the scales at 24st 10.5lbs when he decided to change his lifestyle habits for good in March 2023.

The 23-year-old had struggled with his weight for years and felt limited in his movement and what exercise he could do.

Initially hesitant to sign up due to a lack of other young men in the club, Jack watched as the weight dropped off – so far losing an incredible 9.5st. “My confidence has grown massively,” he told the Manchester Evening News. “I am now four sizes smaller and the issue of not finding clothes that fit is no longer. “My mobility and physical limitations are also a thing of the past as I am now very active and enjoy fitness. “My health feels like it has greatly improved, and day-by-day I feel as if 14 months ago was a lot longer.” Jack, who has a target weight of 13.5st, has since gained 24,000 followers on TikTok thanks to sharing meal ideas on his account, fatboyslimmer00.

The Manchester United fan credits his weight loss success to following the Slimming World diet plan, calorie counting, walking and the occasional run.
