Answer to Question 1

 Mr. McKinley should adhere to an exercise routine that he enjoys.
 To assess readiness, see what he is willing to do and establish goals. Goals should be attainable, realistic, and concrete.
 Consider social support via group activities/teams/sports leagues and a personal trainer, as needed.
 Strenuous exercise should be avoided until he is healed, but walking should not be avoided.
 Physician should be consulted to discuss exercise options that are appropriate.
 Exercise will help maintain weight loss over time because after the weight is lost, Mr. McKinley will have to change his lifestyle to maintain weight loss.
 Exercise will help with chronic conditions such as obesity, hypertension (reduces BP), and diabetes. There is evidence that exercise improves insulin resistance.
 Once an exercise program is in place, Mr. McKinley will still have to follow up with a physician or exercise specialist to assess any medical problems associated with exercise such as chest pain, dyspnea, etc.

- Ideal Goal: Patient will meet protein/energy requirements.
- Intervention: Nutrition education of appropriate foods rich in high-biological value protein (e.g. meat, egg, etc.) and calories without conflicting with Na, K, and P restrictions.
 Inappropriate intake of carbohydrates (sugars) related to drinking of sweetened cola as evidenced by typical daily intake of sugars providing 17 of total kcal

 Overweight related to fluid imbalance and edema as evidenced by 4 kg weight gain 2 weeks prior to admit and BMI of 33.3 (adjusted edema-free weight of BMI 31.5)
 Altered nutrition-related laboratory values related to inappropriate intake of sugars as evidenced by BG of 282 and A1c 8.9 (the etiology may need to be further examined; it could be related to medication dosage, infection, etc.)
