Arthur Appleby of Surton Magna in Wiltshire tipped the scales at 1001kg today making him Britain's fattest man. Speaking in the Swindon Gazette, he put his achievement down to a fry up twice a day. 'Most mornings I have six fried eggs, seven rashers of bacon and nine sausages', he said. Normally around 10am I'll have elevenses, which consists of a king size Mars bar and a Frappucino.
Then it's another fry up at 1pm and if i've got room I'll order a Chinese takeaway or a pizza around 7pm. Asked if he had any more records up his sleeve, Arthur said he was still coming to terms with the present record but would leave his options open.
