The former Tottenham, Ajax, Roma and Marseille forward Mido didn�t end his career at the peak of physical fitness.
But if Mido wasn�t always in-shape as a footballer, then life after football was even more unkind to Mido�s waistline. Speaking to the Guardian in June 2018, Mido revealed: �I was 150kg and I reached a point where I couldn�t walk 30 yards.
�If I did, I started to feel pain in my back, my joints and my knees. I remember I was getting off my boat in Egypt five months ago � this day is the turning point in my life � and I was walking off on to an island. I had three friends with me and it was 300 yards to the end of the island. The sand was a bit heavy and it was a bit sunny and I said to them: �I cannot walk.� I had to sit for 30 minutes. I was only 34.�That was the moment the switch flicked.�
Judging by a recent Instagram post though, Mido has done as he promised and got lean for summer.

Helped by Aly Mazha, one of Egypt�s biggest fitness coaches, Mido has apparently been losing an average of 6kg a month, but what�s even more surprising is that Mido got into summer-body shape in just 100 days. The story of Mido’s transformation has been documented in all its glory for the documentary�MidoXAly.
Be warned though, it’s a long watch, where Mido, bizarrely and repeatedly, refers to himself in the third person.
Before his transformation, Mido would regularly make it onto lists of the ‘fattest�Premier League footballers’. But after his amazing weightloss, one thing is for sure, ‘who ate all the pies?’ Not Mido.
