In the 16th century people (if they could afford it) ate a lot of meat and Henry VIII was no exception. Some have estimated that wealthy men would have consumed around a kilogram of meat each day, which is a huge amount, and as king Henry could quite easily have exceeded this as he would have been offered a greater variety and larger quantity of meat based dishes. It is also worth pointing out that in the 16th century meat was eaten at breakfast, lunch and dinner (except on fast days and lent) so there were more opportunities for people to have a lot of meat. So although we don't know exactly know how much meat Henry ate, it would have been considerably more that people today eat and it would have contributed to his weight gain in later life.
