Dining for the nobility during the Tudor period was about much more than just food. The size of a household and the quantity and variety of food provided were an important way of demonstrating wealth and influence.
Let's explore the diet of King Henry VIII!

He went from fit to metabolic syndrome. He was the precursor to what we see in modern day society. Fit and healthy turned into fat and diseased. Except back in those days you needed to be wealthy to kill yourself with sugar. Nowadays it is the common mans poison. Enough sugar and carbohydrates will overwhelm any system resulting in hyperinsulinemia, insulin insensitivity, obesity, hyperglycemia, and all the complications of metabolic syndrome. All of it is preventable and much of it is reversible. Oh, and one of the underappreciated facets of the resulting metabolic syndrome is the psychiatric disturbance. Courses should be taught on King Henry, but alas they keep showing him eating giant turkey legs as if that was the cause of his obesity.

He fell off his horse during a joust, and his horse fell on top of him, crushing his leg in the process. As a result, Due to the fact that he couldn't exercise as well, And the fact that he ate so much food and dring day afterday, Henry VIII's waist went from 32 inches to 54 inches, and by the last year of his life, he weighed about 400 pounds!

One thing I noticed you did not mention, Henry's obesity can be attributed to an injury he received from a jousting incident. When he was a young man Henry was supposedly in very good shape, described as tall, well built and handsome. However, after his injury he could not be as active as he once was and his weight ballooned as a result.

I think the magazine overstated its case but it is an interesting idea.

There are several good BBC documentaries on the diet of the various classes in British society. Interestingly, they show that the diet of the lower classes (outside famine periods) was actually better for you than that of the highest classes. Their diets consisted of much higher levels of fiber, protein, and carbs, lower levels of salt and sugar, etc.

I have read somewhere that two meals a day, maybe with a light supper later on, used to be the norm. Certainly, with that amount of eating, Henry would hardly have needed more than two meals a day. Three meals a day is a more recent phenomenon. In his youth Henry burned off all those calories a whole lot more because he was an active man. But he couldn't do so with thrombosed legs, and he gained weight alarmingly.
