The world's former fattest man who once weighed nearly 444 kilograms is suing the National Health Service in the UK, claiming they failed to help him, the Daily Mail reports.

Former postman Paul Mason, 50, who now weighs in at a comparatively small 222 kilograms, said he should have been helped years ago.

Mr. Mason, who was eating 20,000 calories a day at his heaviest, claims he sought help from his general practitioner after ballooning to 190 kilograms. Instead of receiving a treatment program to manage his weight, he has complained he was told in 1996: "Ride your bike more."
