His diet consisted of a staggering 8,000 calories every day while necking 30 alcoholic drinks every weekend for six years.

He ignored health issues from his friends and family and continued ballooning while sitting inside his own home and binge eating on takeaways.

The self-proclaimed "human dust-bin" said: "I would go out every Friday and Saturday night and would easily drink eight pints and eight alcopops both nights.

"I probably drank 30 drinks every weekend for about six years. I had no idea what it was doing to my body. It was just the thing to do with my mates.

"I just dismissed my weight and never came to terms with how fat I was getting.

"I was getting no exercise and was completely sedentary.

";I stayed at home in the evenings and getting about day to day was a struggle.

"My mum and dad told me they were concerned about my weight but I foolishly ignored them.

"A close friend said to me when I was 40 that if I carry on I wouldn't see 45.

"He cared about me and was giving me a proper warning but I took no notice at all."

His shockingly unhealthy lifestyle landed him in hospital for 18 days where he was diagnosed with edema - a medical term for when the body swells.

And some harsh words from a nurse changed his life and forced the 42-year-old to lose an impressive 17 stone in under a year.

Craig added: "The nurse told me I was really big, massively obese.

"He said in his experience of working there he remembers two guys similar to me had actually died. He said I was as big as they were.

"When a nurse says that to you it really hits home.

"I made a conscious decision straight away. The penny dropped that I had to lose weight.
