SHG gut feeling - obesity

Our meetings are free and everyone is welcome.

Whether you want to lose weight or are satisfied with your weight, with us the person is in the foreground and not the weight.

We see ourselves as a point of contact for people with excess weight. We meet, exchange, laugh and cry, eat and drink and are a community that supports, accompanies and motivates each other. 

We offer joint ventures such as exercise offers, cooking and regular lectures by guest lecturers of various disciplines. 

We want to increase our group’s awareness and self-esteem and make it clear that obesity is a recognised chronic disease for which there is no need to be ashamed or hidden. The causes of obesity are many and often begin in childhood. 

We are a voluntary self-help group supported by the statutory health insurance companies and their associations in Baden-Württemberg.

We help ourselves. We can also use your help.

The more people talk about obesity, the more attention this topic gets. 

Our society and our politics are unaware of what it means to, 
being affected by obesity.
