A Scots wrestler has shed over 13 stone after a doctor's grave warning forced him to change his life. Johnny Lamb, from Aberdeen, was over 45 stone when a doctor said it would a 'miracle' if he made it to 50.

In 2021, the health warning pushed the 35-year-old to decide it was time to turn his life around, reports Aberdeen Live. He said: "That just made me snap back into reality a bit.

I thought about my wife not having a husband, my family losing me. "My mental health was very low and even though I'm not a selfish person, I think I started thinking selfishly at that point. "I was 34, so that was a very scary thing to be told, and it was a conscious decision from there.

I needed to do it. I told myself, 'it's now or never'."Johnny sought out a weight loss surgeon but was told he'd need to lose up to 15 stone before they could operate on the NHS.However, a private surgeon said he would take on the 6ft 7in wrestler's case if he shed five stone.Johnny, who also works for oil giant Baker Hughes, went on a major diet in June last year.He was consuming just 800 calories a day in the form of four milkshakes.The diet saw him quickly lose five stone and he underwent a mini gastric bypass surgery in August.

Health sector asks for Ontario budget investments beyond hospitals
Ontario’s next budget will set a roadmap for recovering from COVID-19, perhaps doubling as the Progressive Conservatives’ election platform, and many stakeholders are asking the government to shore up the health system by looking beyond hospitals.From hospitals, to long-term care, to laboratories, the health sector bore much of the brunt of the pandemic’s impact.The government pumped more than $5 billion into hospitals to add 3,100 beds since the start of the pandemic and the Ontario Hospital Association said those were welcome investments. Ontario COVID-19 numbers: Province reports 228 people in intensive care Now, to maintain financial stability for hospitals as they restart surgeries and procedures delayed by the pandemic and continue to manage other COVID-19 pressures, they require a 3.5 per cent increase in base operating funding, or $735 million, the OHA said in its pre-budget submission.In addition, the hospital association is seeking dedicated funding for reducing the surgery backlog, and continuing funding for additional beds that was committed over the past two years.The Progressive Conservative government is extending its own deadline for delivering the next budget to April 30, which is around when the campaign for the June 2 election will begin.A spokeswoman for Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy said he “understands the importance of investing in health care to create a more sustainable system in Ontario.”Contributing to the pressures in hospitals is the need for greater funding elsewhere, the OHA noted.
