Menzies reveals secret behind two stone weight loss

Published 1 August 2026

CAMERON MENZIES has revealed eating salad was behind his TWO stone weight loss and darts revival.

The world No26 admits swapping pizzas for healthier meals while travelling has helped transform his life both on and off the oche.

Menzies, 37, claimed his second ProTour title last month and then produced one of the shocks of the year at the World Matchplay by dumping out Luke Humphries 10-7 in round one.

The Scot believes changing his diet has played a major role in helping him rediscover his confidence and fitness.

He told ViaPlay: “A couple stone. Hopefully, a couple more but that is for health reasons. It has helped massively just changing my diet.

“When you travel to hotels you’re used to eating easy. So, you just go on Uber [Eats] and buy pizzas.

“But now I am buying salads.”

Cammy has also turned to hypnotherapy to help control his emotions on stage, with the benefits already clear after his stunning run to the World Cup semi-finals alongside Gary Anderson for Scotland.

He added: “The PDC got me involved with hypnotherapy. It has helped not just with darts but with life.

“I haven’t been with him the last couple of weeks just because I have been so busy.

“But I am going to reach out and speak to him next week. It’s helped because I don’t like being that person.

“I don’t mean to be that person. I get caught in the moment. But I am all adrenaline as you can see.”
