Man loses 90 kilos to look after children of his daughter who died of cancer

Mike Summers, 56, from Wales lost 90 kilos to fulfill the dying request of his daughter, who died of breast cancer 3 years ago, Daily Mail reported. 

Mike's daughter, before dying, asked him to help with child care when she was gone.

“The last conversation I had with my daughter was I had to try and be around to help my son in law with her kids. I was being selfish. It is only when I lost my daughter did I realise that if something happened to me, I would be leaving everyone else behind. The reason why I have done this is not for my own personal gain, but for everybody,” he said.

Mr Summers wanted to lose a total of 12st 3lb.

Before he started his weight loss journey he would eat several pasties for breakfast, multiple sandwiches for lunch and a takeaway for dinner.

“Now I have lost all this weight, it has got a thousand times better. I feel fitter now than I did when I was in my 40s,” he said.
