Former England cricketer Ashley Giles has revealed his weight ballooned to nearly 20 stone (127kg) when he finished playing.
He struggled with the transition from being a top international sportsman with his diet managed by nutritionists to a desk job when he retired from playing 19 years ago.
In an exclusive BBC interview he says he wants to start what he calls "a conversation" about obesity and mental health, encouraging others to speak openly about their challenges.

Why is there nothing on the BBC about the civil unrest and riots all over France? The country is at war and no news at all....

Maybe focus more on the mental health stuff, rather than "Former Cricketer got fat"<br><br>I could take a 5 minute walk now and see some absolute Land Whales. The bigger issue is how to help people with mental health problems, especially when they have no back up plan for a career that ends in their "Mid life"
