List conditions when the need for fluids is increased.

Question 2

Haley, a 34-year-old single female, weighs 210 pounds, is 58 tall and has a medium frame. The physician asks you to assist Haley in planning a diet that will allow her to lose 1 to 2 pounds per week. As you discuss Haley's diet with her, you determine that her typical diet consists of these foods: two pieces of bacon, two eggs, one slice of cheese on one biscuit with 8 oz of 2 milk for breakfast; 4 oz hamburger on a bun, one cup of fries, 32 oz of cola for lunch; two slices of a 12-inch loaded pizza, two cups of salad with 2 tbsp of ranch dressing, 32 oz sweet tea for dinner; and snacks of 6 oz lite yogurt, 1 oz of chips, 1 oz of pretzels, and diet cola throughout the day.

Haley plans to attend a local weight loss group, Lose Weight the Healthy Way, and has invited you to make a presentation. Focus your presentation on the benefits of exercise to aid in weight loss. Prepare a teaching plan for the presentation and an exercise plan that can be adaptable for a variety of individuals who may attend the group meeting.

Answer to Question 1

Fever, hemorrhage, burns, diabetes mellitus, excessive perspiration, excessive urination, certain medications (such as diuretics), vomiting, or diarrhea

Answer to Question 2

The teaching plan should include objectives, goals, and interventions. The exercise plan should encourage participants to get regular exercise two to three times per week. Interventions should include an exercise plan beginning with low-impact exercises with an emphasis on walking. The length of walking time and the impact, ranging from walk to jog, could vary, depending on the person's health status, age, or physical condition. This would make the activity plan adaptable or variable. Some participants may not be able to progress to the more rigorous workouts, but could focus on walking and gradually increase the time.
