Answer to Question 1

B
To facilitate compliance, patient meal plans should be based on their usual eating habits. Includ-ing some favorite foods each week may improve quality of life, achieving weight-loss goals may minimize the effects of the disease, and including meals and snacks at the same time each day may improve glycemic control, but these measures would not have so much effect on compliance.

Answer to Question 2

C, D, E
Feedback:
There are various strategies that can be used to benefit a person with a colostomy. They should avoid foods that may cause blockage; however, some fiber is needed to ensure no diarrhea. They should also avoid odor-causing foods and chew their food well.
