A diet of baked beans helped Neil King to lose 140 pounds in nine months. In fact, since June 2007, he's eaten more than half a ton of them, about 1,500 cans.
Prior to dieting, King ate a full English breakfast, which at its heart consists of bacon and eggs and may include sausage, toast, and stewed tomatoes, for lunch, and drank eight pints of lager in the pub after tea.
King, from Halstead in Essex, England, made the switch from boozing to beans after being told he was at risk for bowel cancer.
And his high fiber diet has been gas-free since he stopped having toast with his beans, it is reported. The diet helped King go from 420 pounds to 280 pounds.
Speaking to Britain's Mirror, King said, "Some people think I'm mad but I love the taste and the weight has been dropping off."
King apparently eats six cans of beans each day, and has them with rice for lunch and with potato for his afternoon tea.
His wife Cheryl told the Mirror, "He's like a new man."

I divorced the witch.
She was pretty slender at almost 5’8”.
If he simply cut this out of his daily routine, it would likely account for the weight loss.
His diet consists of beans, rice, and potatoes?
What’s he being punished for again?
Thinking about that scene in Blazing Saddles where
everyones eating beans around the campfire
Glad the guy was able to lose so much weight but
the Subway diet might be a little more varied

I went on that same diet in ‘92. Worked great.
Then I turned around and gained 130lb. in ‘94.
But it was worth it.
As opposed to before, when he was like two men. :-)
"Thousands Killed In Grisly Aftermath!"
Finally a diet endorsed by cardiologists and gastroenterologists...good for hearts and farts.
That’s right, this guy’s heart must be in fantastic shape now.
Man, that’s a lot of “fruit”.
ROFL!
Waitress: Shut up!! Baked beans are off.
Man: Well could I have her spam instead of the baked beans then?
Waitress: You mean spam spam spam spam spam spam... (but it is too late and the Vikings drown her words)
