Johnson: I want to lose weight this year, I wanted to be a vegetarian but I can't leave the cheese.

British Minister Boris Johnson said today he would like to lose weight during 2020, but added that he would not become a widow because it requires much focus and sacrifice.

So he'd have to give up the consumption of cheese, which he doesn't want.

I was thinking of becoming a vegetarian in January, but it would take a lot of concentration. I take off the hat of any vegan that might be,” Johnson said in an interview with the BBC, acknowledging that he wants to lose several kilos this year.
