A football fanatic grandad has made an amazing transformation after he dropped five stone allowing him to get back to playing the sport he loves.
Mark Fielden from Leeds struggled with weight problems for most of his adult life after retiring from football in his thirties, and weighed 20 stone (127 kilos) at the most.
But with a strong desire to strap his boots back on to play walking football, and to improve his mental and physical health as well as the sudden death of a close friend, the 63-year-old turned to weight loss surgery in Riga, Latvia.
