Summary

In this study the investigators want to explore the feasibility and effect of a simple intervention provided by primary care physicians on treatment for overweight in general practice. Regular patients visiting their ordinary family physician will be asked for participation if they comply with the inclusion criteria. If so, they will follow a detailed food list for 12 months with regular visits to the doctor. At each visit, the participating patients will be asked about their progress on weight loss and all measurements will be made. Simultaneously a control group of primary care physicians will also recruit patients that fulfill the inclusion criteria. These patients will also provide data that will serve as Control to the intervention group.
