Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Behavior modification strategies focus on learning desired eating and activity behaviors and eliminating unwanted behaviors. Examples include not grocery shopping when hungry and exercising when watching television. With so many possible behavior changes, a person can feel overwhelmed. Start with small time-specific goals for each behavior-for example, I'm going to take a 30-minute walk after dinner every evening instead of I'm going to run in a marathon someday. Practice desired behaviors until they become routine. Addressing multiple behaviors that focus on a common goal simultaneously may better support changes than taking on one at a time. Using a reward system also seems to effectively support weight-loss efforts.
