When you think of ''weight loss' what are the first colours that spring to mind?

I am designing a site on weightloss, not sure what colour I should do the sidebars..

 

Light colors. Like greens, baby blues, light purples, etc.

When you think of weight loss, you aren't going to think of heavy colors like dark reds, blues, and especially black.

Keep the colors very light.

Good luck.

Should of posted this in the graphics section.

 

Green,I think green is better.Have a try.It can make others feel energetic and powerful.

 

Just like GhostRider103 said. Light Colours.

I personally immediately see a light blue colour.

Maybe just because most of the weighloss products I've promoted in the past, have a light blue colour.

Furthermore, here is a lil secret: Light Blue has been proven over and over to be the colour that "triggers" Trust in people. If you make it your BG or some big part of your template, you will notice increased conversions.

Any shades of light blue will do.

 

When I think of weight loss, I think of "Fat Colors" - Dark colors

 

I think black. Makes you look thinner.

 

Thanks for your input. I think I'll go for light green, see what conversions are like and then switch to light blue and see if that makes a difference!

 

For me it's deep blue - feels like it have something to do with exercise.

 

Greens, blues.

Look what colours other people/companies are using, there is a reason they are all using similar colours.

 

Only light colors appear in my mind when I hear this phrase. Loosing weight is associated with lightweightness and nature. So, the best color combination is light green and white.

 

Most of the companies are using light pink, which match skin color, so people looks good.

 

This is a great tool to come up with colors:
Adobe Kuler

 

What if you're not caucasian?

 

Lighter bright colors that make people happy.

 

I thought of green aswell....light green would be nice
