Identify one specific physical activity recommendation for Jamey.

What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

You talk with Jamey and her parents, who are friendly and cooperative. Jamey's mother asks if it would help for them to not let Jamey snack between meals and to reward her with dessert when she exercises.

What would you tell the family regarding snacks between meals and rewards with dessert after exercise?
