Membership exclusive: Michael Mosley talk on weight loss

[Fran_Benson]

We're very excited to announce that doctor and leading health journalist, Michael Mosley (author of the hugely successful 5:2 diet, Fast diet and now Fast 800 diet and well known for his tv programmes) is giving a talk for our charity members at 2pm (BST) on 19th October (via Zoom).

It’s never been more important for older people to maintain a healthy weight, because of the double risk of being older and overweight if you contract COVID-19. But maintaining a good weight , especially if you are on steroids, can be challenging.

Do join us for what will be an interesting and enjoyable event where Michael will talk about our relationship with food, the science and importance of weight loss and the effect of food on sleep. He will also be answering questions.

This is a free member exclusive so you will need to be a paid up member with a membership number. Email Candy ([e-mail]) with your membership number to book your place.

Hi Fran, unfortunately I work on a Monday afternoon. Will this be available online after for me to watch.

Thanks

Hi koalajane, it won't be available immediately. We're hoping to set up a member area on our site for exclusive content and the earliest that might be possible is November.

Thanks for your reply.

I look forward to seeing it and also the member area which I think is a great idea

Excellent Fran

Really looking forward to this. I lost about three stone on the 5:2 diet (husband lost five) several years ago. We still do two fast days a week but I'm now struggling to keep the weight off (and using pred as my excuse).

Looking forward to this! 💐

Hi Fran I would love to join the meeting with Dr Mosley on the 19th, but can’t put my hand on my membership number right now. Will go and search

Hi Crafter, if you message me privately with your name, I can check your details on the membership database. You should also have received an email about it from me too (if you've given us permission to email that is).
