Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: Acknowledging it has been difficult but the client has learned to manage in a new job demonstrates that the client has reached a turning point and may learn from his or her experience. Thoughts of revenge, resignation, or unrealistic expectations of change do not necessarily reflect a turning point.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Observe the client for at least one hour after meals to prevent purging. Eating with the client, weighing the client after eating, or providing frequent meals are not as effective as observation after meals.
