View submission: [Times column] Jeremy Clarkson: “I’m doing everything I can not to die, even Pilates”

I hope he does. He already quit smoking, which is great. But he'll have to quit drinking and lose a lot of weight. He really hasn't a given a fuck for all his life. I can kinda appreciate a person who lives like that, but eventually it'll catch up to you hard.

Clarkson has a few things going for him. He’s rich, as we all know, money helps in lots of ways. He can have the best gym equipment installed in his house and have the best instructor etc. it’s 2025, which means he can get on the Ozempic train and become much thinner and healthier. If he stops drinking and loses a lot of weight and also starts exercising regularly I’m sure it will help him a lot.

Honestly, if he stops drinking, he *will immediately* lose a lot of weight.

Overall, men have an easier time losing weight to begin with; cutting out the ton of calories from alcohol from his diet will show effects probably within the month.

People truly underestimate how much alcohol contributes to weight gain. I hope he quits it and I hope he sees results soon enough to encourage him to continue.
