Objective: We conducted a questionnaire survey (5 items) among male workers regarding their attitude towards weight loss attempts after the first interview of the Specific Health Guidance; the relationship between their attitude and weight loss after 6 months was examined.Methods: We enrolled male workers who attended the first interview of the Specific Health Guidance in a medical checkup organization in Osaka from April 2010 to March 2011. The association between weight loss over 6 months and the level of support as well as smoking and drinking habits and the stages of change that had been assessed in the Specific Medical Checkups, was examined. In addition, we examined the relationship between weight loss over 6 months and the attitude of the workers towards weight loss attempts as well as social support that had been assessed by the questionnaire.Results: In total, 160 male workers were included in the analysis, and their responses were as follows: motivation, </TS>I think that I will do seriously (60.0%); importance, </TS>I strongly agree and I understand that it is necessary (50.6%); and value,</TS> It is important for my life or work (68.1%). There was no relationship between weight loss over 6 months and the stages of change for weight loss assessed in the Specific Medical Checkups; however, the change in weight was greater in those who understood the value of weight loss after the Specific Health Guidance.Conclusions: The stages of change assessed at the Specific Medical Checkups was not related to the weight loss achieved; however, a high value for weight loss attempts after the first interview of the Specific Health Guidance was associated with weight loss. Thus, it is important for counselors and health educators to understand the attitudes during the first interviews and to provide support accordingly.
