FAT friends John Donaldson and Tony Scull will weigh-in at a diet class today.
They will start a free 10-week Slimming World course at St John's Church in Haydon Wick.
Expert Peter Kidd, who slimmed from 19 stone to 14 four years ago, will offer them tips on how to diet safely. The friends, who weigh more than 35 stone each, have a larger-than-life presence at their locals, The Tap and Barrel and The Wheatsheaf in Swindon.
Both pubs are supporting their sponsored slim to raise funds for Prospect Hospice, Wroughton. They aim to lose six stone each.
