Interested in taking part in an investigative documentary about weight?  Do you believe that there are reasons beyond your control which make you overweight?

A new Channel 4 programme is looking for contributors who are somewhat overweight and feel that it isn’t their fault.  Perhaps you feel your weight is hereditary? Maybe your metabolism is just too slow or you carry the obesity gene?   Maybe you had puppy fat in childhood or are big-boned?  Perhaps you put on weight during pregnancy or the menopause?  Or perhaps you simply don’t know why you are the weight you are as you feel you eat healthily and do exercise?  You need to be willing to talk about your experiences on camera and the reasons for your weight problem.  We will look at possible explanations.

In addition we are looking specifically for a family to appear in the programme who try to have a healthy diet but are still a little heavier than they’d like to be.   

We will be filming over the next 4 weeks.  You would not need to travel, we would come to you to film. 

If you feel you’re what we’re looking for and are interested in finding out more please email us at: cantloseweight@silverriver.tv.  Please tell us briefly about your experiences and why you think you struggle with your weight.  Or if you are responding about our search for a family please just tell us a little bit about yourselves.

We look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible!
