Q: Tell me about your therapy with Chanuk?

JOHN: Part of it was not to self-control yourself, in any way. That included anything so I would just eat and eat and eat. And it was all very well for the mind, but for the body it was terrible. But the idea was, “Well, I am an artist, not a model, so fuck it. I wonder who I try to please … ?” It was me I was trying to please, I found out; too late, after I’d got about 5 million pounds. And I wore the same clothes for two years. I had two things: a jumpsuit — not a fashionable one; one you get to do the plumbing in. I had two of them. And that’s all I wore for almost two years. In the middle of the Chanuk thing I got fat as hell. I was living on chocolate and Dr. Pepper … I mean, Chanuk was an idiot, but he was not bad. His therapy was good. It was just he was a pain in the neck. So I got big, and I wore the same clothes … I got used to it. I didn’t feel terrible about it, but I didn’t enjoy it. I was a slob.

Q: Your sex life? Did it change while you were at it? Did you get conscious of being ugly?

JOHN: No, because I was in the therapy with Yoko, and we both were as fat as hell. And in the dark it feels great. We both would roll around … It’s when you wanna go somewhere else, or when someone else sees you that you are conscious of it. Sometimes I don’t like dressing up. And I don’t dress up for months, or almost a year. Just wear a T-shirt and jeans. And somedays I just get an urge to get dressed. And then you can’t wear anything — nothing looks good, nothing … you always look like an asshole.

Q: Did you go shopping?
