Practical Lifestyle Products for adults who are overweight.

Use the tape to help motivate you to lose those extra pounds

The BBC reported in April 2018 that the majority of adults in the UK are overweight or obese according to national health surveys, yet research suggests we are a country in denial about our weight.

• Everywhere you go you are encouraged to buy food and snacks that are full of sugar and fat rather than healthy well-balanced meals with plenty of fruit and vegetables. Unfortunately, all the temptations make it incredibly hard to eat well and it is causing a significant health crisis.
• Doctors are telling us that excess fat is not good for our health and that abdominal fat is of particular concern. It is now thought that excess fat deep in the abdomen sets up inflammation which can translate to all sorts of medical problems including heart attacks, strokes and diabetes which is why it is important to know what your waist measurement is.

The newly launched Waistchecker customised tape measure is colour coded and shows at a glance whether your waist measurement is in the healthy or unhealthy range. One side of the measure is for men and the other side for women. Included in the pack is a leaflet giving instructions on why you should measure your waist, how to measure your waist and lifestyle tips on how to reduce waist size.*

The tape is manufactured in Germany by one of the world’s leading tape measure manufacturers. The plastic clam shell packaging is recyclable.

The indicators on the Waistchecker are for information purposes only, based on NHS guidance. You should always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional regarding any weight-related or obesity condition or treatment.
