A MAN who was rushed to hospital after he collapsed on the scales at his first Slimming World weigh-in has shed a whopping 14 stone.
John MacDonald, 28, decided to join the club after doctors warned that he could "drop dead" at any moment.
Medics feared John - who weighed 27 stone and had developed Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure would suffer a massive heart attack.
But during his first weigh-in at the group in 2021, John, from Glasgow, became so ill that he collapsed onto a chair and threw up.
He was raced to the city's Royal Infirmary for urgent tests, which thankfully ruled out cardiac issues.
