Question 2

Monica has been trying to lose weight for about a year. Throughout the past year she has educated herself on the guidelines of good nutrition and exercise. Despite knowing that she needs to change her lifestyle, she is frustrated with her inability to lose weight and wants to jumpstart her weight loss. She is trying to lose 5-10 lbs. as soon as possible because she feels that gradual changes are emotional downers and she is unable to commit to gradual change. She ends up over eating, eating out of balance, and ceasing to exercise. Her most recent diet is as follows: day 1: fruits only, day 2: vegetables only, day 3: fruits and vegetables only, day 4: 6 bananas and milk, days 5 and 6: tomatoes only, day 7: eat whatever you want. In addition to the diet Monica is exercising daily for 1-2 hours. What type of diet would be helpful for Monica to follow to facilitate weight loss?
 A) A high-carbohydrate, low-fat, low-protein diet
  B) A diet that provides ample protein and plenty of complex carbohydrates and is low in saturated fat and refined carbohydrates
  C) A high-protein, low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet
  D) A diet similar to the one she is currently following
