We are looking for three families (mums, dads and children) with weight issues to take part in an intensive, expert-led weight loss programme this summer which will take stock of their health issues and give them a real chance to change their lives forever.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In this series, the three families will spend one week in a secret location where some of the nation\u2019s best experts in Nutrition, Health, Psychotherapy and Fitness will help set them on the road to recovery. In a course of specialist treatments they will be given the chance to change. Then in the following weeks, they will be sent home to put what they\u2019ve learnt to the test.<\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>We\u2019re looking for outgoing families with weight issues that are making them unhappy and unhealthy but who most of all want the chance to change. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you and your family are Overweight and potentially putting yourselves at increased risk of Diabetes, Heart Disease and a variety of Cancers, we want to hear from you. <strong>We want people who are willing to share their stories with the nation to ultimately show us all how we can tackle our growing obesity problem. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The treatment programmes our families will undergo would normally cost thousands of pounds, but for the people who take part in the show it will be <\/strong><strong>completely free<\/strong><strong>. <\/strong><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>For further information on how to take part, contact the Fat Chance team, Peter or Gohir at fatchance@terntv.com<\/h2>\n<h3>Or Tel:- 02890326038<\/h3>\n<table cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\"><strong> <\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>* All enquiries will be dealt with in the strictest confidence*<\/strong><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Northern Ireland families needed now to star in new TV Health show Does your family have the wrong diet and wrong attitude?
