Weight loss. A 27 year old female (Laura) finished college 4 years ago. She played sports on intramural teams during college and regularly worked out, but since finishing school she has found it hard to be as active as she was before. She is 5’5” (65 inches) tall and 158 pounds. Her work does offer reimbursement for gym memberships for their corporate wellness plan, but she has not felt like she has the time to regularly get to the gym and exercise. Results from her 3-day diet tracking you find that she consumes around 2500 kcals per day with the bulk of those calories coming from meals out to restaurants for lunch or dinner during or after work. She wants to lose weight, but doesn’t know how much she should lose. What kind of suggestions can you offer to Laura to help her improve her health?Weight maintenance. A 38 year old female (Karen) has recently gone through several exercise programs through an at-home exercise regimen (streamed through an online video program that she paid for) and lost 12 pounds. She is 5’8” (68 inches) and 155 pounds. The loss of 12 pounds was the result of previous pregnancy weight she had gained and she has 2 kids (1 in school, 1 still at home). She remembers learning about nutrition in college years ago, but does not remember much about how much she should eat. She has been dieting and only eating 1200 kcals per day to lose the weight recently with her exercise program and now wants to introduce more foods back to her diet. Karen does work part time for a small company and wants to open up her own online business to work her own hours.
