Add to ORKGObjectives: Obesity is a risk factor for many cancers and obese cancer patients have a poorer prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of obesity and attempts to lose weight among cancer survivors. The effects of cancer treatment and time since cancer treatment were also evaluated. Methods: The 2007 Health Information National Trends Survey data were analysed between 2011 and 2013; respondents with (n = 966) and without (n = 6,093) a personal history of cancer were identified. Each respondent’s body mass index (BMI) was calculated using self-reported height and weight measurements and categorised as normal (<25 kg/m2), overweight (25‒29.9 kg/m2) or obese (≥30 kg/m2). Results: Cancer survivors were older (mean age = 63.4 versu...
