Living with obesity

Start the conversation by taking the interactive obesity risk test. By taking this test, you will find out your BMI, your obesity risk factors and what your risk is of developing other obesity-related health problems.

Step 1: Take the obesity risk test

Step 2: Discuss with your GP

Step 3: Find an obesity specialist

Obesity Risk Test

Next step:
Discuss with your GP

BMI is a useful screening tool, but it doesn't tell the full story. One size doesn't fit all, and people with the same BMI can have very different risks and weight loss journeys. Your GP can assess your full health profile and help you find the right weight loss treatment. Download the GP discussion guide to prepare for your next weight loss consultation.
