Dr Malcolm Goyns wants to reduce his Body Mass Index (BMI). It sounds like a good idea, given that it’s currently 31, which makes him officially obese.
So, like any good dieter, he’s cut his calorie intake, giving up full-fat milk, fried foods and the fatty snacks such as crisps and biscuits that he used to enjoy, and replacing them with fruit, yoghurt, muesli and salads.
His plan is to reduce his intake to just 1,300 calories a day – well below the optimum level recommended in the Government’s healthy eating guidelines – until he reaches his target (a BMI of 18.5). Then he’ll return to his former eating habits.
