Starting from June 2024, the National Health Commission and multiple departments have jointly launched a three-year "Weight Management Year" activity. During this year's National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, "weight management" has become a hot topic of concern to the whole people. As people's health awareness continues to improve, more and more people are beginning to pay attention to their weight and physical health.
It is understood that Bao'an District of Shenzhen has established a relatively sound health education network. This is a health education network with Bao'an District Health Education Center as the main force, Bao'an District Chronic Hospital, People's Hospital and three traditional Chinese medicine hospitals providing technical support, street branch centers and street hospitals as supplements and tools, communities as the endpoints, and various health venues as pioneers. There are 807 full-time (part-time) health education staff in the district, 9 public hospitals, 221 community health service centers, and 311 health venues in the district, escorting the health of residents in the district.
With the help of the health education network, Bao'an District of Shenzhen has pushed high-quality weight management-related health science works in a targeted manner, and invited industry experts to the community to hold weight management lectures, healthy weight knowledge activities and competitions to encourage more residents to actively participate in weight management actions.
In 2025, the Bao'an District Health Bureau of Shenzhen also launched the "Top Ten Convenience Actions", focusing on weight management, especially obesity diagnosis and treatment services. At present, all public hospitals in the district can provide relevant diagnosis and treatment services.
Baoding First Central Hospital in Hebei Province has opened a weight management clinic jointly organized by the Department of Nutrition, Endocrinology, Rehabilitation Medicine, General Surgery, Reproductive Medicine, Physical Examination, etc., providing scientific weight loss plans for different types of obese patients.
In addition to visiting the hospital, strengthening physical exercise in daily life is also an effective way to manage weight. At the Ruiao Fitness Club located in Jingxiu District, many citizens choose to use their spare time to exercise and strengthen their weight management through various fitness methods.
At present, more and more schools are actively responding to the call to integrate weight management into physical education teaching and campus life. At Baoding Lekai Middle School, the school guides students to understand the relevant knowledge of weight management through thematic class meetings and encourages them to actively participate in physical exercise. During Sunshine Classes and Physical Education Classes, students strengthen physical exercise through exercises such as exercises, basketball, and running.
