A FAMILY DOCUMENTARY NEEDS YOU
A documentary in development is looking for families who are overweight and we want to hear your family story.
 
Do you try and hide or are you proud of the range of sizes in your family?
Do you get motivated or yawn when your family is told what you should weigh or when people start yakking on about BMI?

Do you believe your excess weight is genetic? Maybe your metabolism the problem? Have you tried every diet going but nothing ever works? Do friends and family want you to diet but you know there is just no point?

A new Channel 4 Documentary would love to chat to you if you feel it’s not your fault you are overweight.
