A pilot study examining patient response to a weight loss workbook designed to Be used in a family medicine outpatient setting.

This study measured patient response to a self-help weight loss workbook designed for use in an outpatient, family medicine practice. The primary measures were 2 follow-up telephone calls, the first at 1 week and the second at 1 month after the book was given to the patient. Initially, patients were enthusiastic about the book and had read it, and 24 (70%) intended to use it. On the other hand, at 1 month, only 8 (32%) of those called were actually using the book. Reasons for this change are explored.
