NICE recommends that the healthcare professional should:
• talk to you about the benefits of being physically active
• suggest how you could fit more physical activity into your everyday life,
based on what you like doing and how easy it is for you to do it
• suggest how you could eat more healthily, based on your own likes and
dislikes, and discuss how easy it is for you to buy food and prepare meals
• help you to come up with some realistic goals and give you some
tips on how to achieve those goals (these might include, for example,
how to cope in a situation where there is a lot of tempting sugary
or high-fat food)
• provide you with written information and offer you ongoing support.
They may use a measure called body mass index (or BMI for short) to find
out if you are overweight. This involves weighing you and measuring your
height. Your BMI is your weight in kilogrammes (kg) divided by the square
of your height in metres (m2). There’s a BMI calculator on the NHS Direct
website (www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/interactiveTools/bmi.aspx).
Your waist measurement may also be taken. This is because, if two people
have the same BMI, the one with the bigger waist measurement is more
likely to develop health problems as a result of being overweight. If you
are a man, your chance of developing health problems is higher if your
waist measurement is more than 94 cm (37 inches), and higher still if it
is more than 102 cm (40 inches). If you are a woman, your chance of
developing health problems is higher if your waist measurement is more
than 80 cm (31.5 inches), and higher still if it is more than 88 cm
(34.5 inches)
