Hi Vicky You may not want to hear from me not in the BMI range now, but was not that long ago; can give you thoughts on how my perspective has changed. Please contact me off list if I can be of any help. Regards Annie Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2008 17:23:16 +0100From: [log in to unmask]: [OCC-HEALTH] Survey about giving weight adviceTo: [log in to unmask] We have been asked by the Department of Health to undertake a project investigating how overweight health professionals provide weight management advice. Although there has been research in this general area before, this study is different because we are specifically interested in how health professionals who are themselves overweight feel this may affect their practice. If you have a BMI of 25 or over and would be prepared to talk in confidence to a researcher, please do get in touch. We will be conducting telephone interviews with health professionals from a range of backgrounds and these will form the basis of the study. We are particularly interested to hear from people working in occupational health settings. We are a charity independent from the Department of Health and all interviews will be strictly confidential.
