If you have any concerns about your weight, contact your GP or a dietician. If you think you just need to lose a little weight, here are some practical tips.

Whenever we eat more than our body needs, we put on weight. This is because the energy we don't use up is stored in our body, usually as fat. Even small amounts of surplus energy each day can lead to weight gain.

So if you want to lose some weight, you might want to look at ways of:

• making sure you only eat as much food as you need
• improving the balance of your diet
• getting more active
