Chris used to consume an incredible 5,000 calories a day,before he switched to healthy lifestyle.On average he would eat five slices of bread for breakfast as a mid morning meal before a full English breakfast.He would then eat a sandwich,a large pack of crisps and a pasty for lunch before chewing a whole packet of biscuits in the afternoon.For dinner Chris would demolish a curry (咖喱)and,ice cream,and also drink four pints of beer very quickly,before feeding on fatty snacks all evening.
