Answer to Question 1

4

Rationale: This client should be assisted to initially reduce dietary intake by 500 calories per day. Laboratory values do not need to be obtained this frequently. A food and activity diary should be maintained for one week. There is no reason to assess this information for 6 months. The client should be assisted to plan ways to decrease the amount of time that is spent sitting each day. Physical activity can be increased per advisement of the client's primary health-care provider.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
There are various terms that have been legally defined so they are reliable indications of the content of the product. Reduced or less means the product has at least a 25 reduction. Very low refers to only sodium. Lean refers to meat or poultry products with less than 10 g fat or less than 4 g saturated fat. Good source means the product provides 10 to 19 of the daily value for a nutrient.
