Little swaps big changes - lose weight in 2023

Around two-thirds (63%) of adults are above a healthy weight, and of these, half are living with obesity. Obesity puts us at risk of a range of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, at least 12 kinds of cancer, liver and respiratory disease, COVID-19 and can impact mental health. 

Obesity also puts pressure on our health service. It is estimated that overweight and obesity-related conditions across the UK cost the NHS £6.1 billion each year and there were nearly 900,000 obesity related hospital admissions from 2018 to 2019. 

NHS Better Health offers free evidence-based support and guidance to those working towards a healthier weight. There are a variety of free NHS endorsed apps which will help people introduce simple changes to help them eat better and get active, including the NHS Weight Loss Plan.
