Answer to Question 1

1 . Provide honest, basic information.
2 . Provide behavior change skills.
3 . Reinforcement.

Answer to Question 2

Roy may be suffering from the condition known as night eating syndrome (NES). NES has been associated with stress and with poor results at attempts to lose weight. Progressive relaxation is associated with significantly lower afternoon and evening ratings of hunger, and a trend toward less nighttime eating. It follows that relaxation exercises may have a positive effect on preventing obesity.
