I was serious. He said people called him a glutton and a drunkard, and the extra weight could be why he died so quickly on the cross (although it's not, of course, the only possible explanation).

(Lk. 7:34 New International Bible)
34 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and you say,'Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and "sinners".'

(Mk. 15:44-45 New International Bible)
44 Pilate was surprised to hear that he was already dead. Summoning the centurion, he asked him if Jesus had already died.
45 When he learned from the centurion that it was so, he gave the body to Joseph.
