Understanding weight

Healthy weight loss.
A medical perspective.

Weight has many causes. That is why we look beyond the number on the scale and consider your overall health.

General information for adults.

More than willpower

Excess weight is complex.

Metabolism, genetics, medication, sleep, stress, diet, activity and your environment can all affect your weight. Good treatment looks at these factors without blame.

BMI relates body weight to height. In adults, a BMI of 25 or above is classed as overweight, and 30 or above as obesity.
