Quite a few charts, pathways and other publications relating to obesity for healthcare professionals are available from the Dept. Of Health website for free download.

One that I picked out at random is a two page document dealing with raising the issue of weight with children. It discusses the idea of raising the issue, reassurance and  agreeing next steps etc.

Other publications include:-

Obesity Care Pathway - Adults and Children & Young People

Care pathway for the management of overweight and obesity

Raising the Issue of weight in adults

Why weight matters card

Your weight your health: how to take control of your weight

Consultation on obesity care pathway and resources for primary care

Summary of comments consultation on obesity care pathway_adult

Guidance on food portion sizes to lose weight.

So you want to lose weight...... for good

Each of these publications are small and take just seconds to download.
