Introduction Weight stigma and internalised weight bias are associated with poor mental, social and physical health. Weight-neutral approaches prioritise well-being and sustainable health behaviours.
However, the feasibility and acceptability of weight-neutral interventions remain uncertain. Methods and analysis Weight-Neutral Health Intervention (WIN) is an investigator-initiated single-arm feasibility study enrolling 56 adults with body mass index ≥30 kg/m 2 in the Capital Region of Denmark.
The study investigates a codesigned weight-neutral health intervention. The 6-month intervention comprises 1 preparatory session and 11 group sessions led by trained practitioners, focusing on intuitive eating, body acceptance and self-compassion; optional components include support-network events, up to three individual online sessions and access to 'size-inclusive yoga' and 'body competence' courses.
The primary feasibility outcome is follow-up completion. Recruitment proportion and adherence are secondary feasibility outcomes.
These will be assessed using a set of predefined 'traffic-light' stop/go progression criteria. Exploratory feasibility outcomes include data completeness for other outcomes and participant engagement with the intervention.
