Abstract
By evaluation of long term results after a weight loss program for children we found that interviews by telephone should not be taken as follow up. The SDS-difference seems to be no suitable scale to measure the changing in weight. The best scale for monitoring obesity seems to be the percentage weight compared to the actual height of the patient.
