Answer to #7

Several factors contribute to understanding the client's motivation to engage in a weight-loss program: reasons and motivation for weight reduction, previous weight-loss attempts, the patient's understanding of causes of obesity and how obesity contributes to several diseases, existing comorbidities, attitude toward physical activity, capacity to engage in physical activity, time available for weight-loss intervention, and financial considerations.
A patient's nutrition knowledge, food access, food selection, and functional capacity to prepare food and engage in physical activity are all important for individualized treatment planning.

Answer to #8

a

Answer to #9

Obesogenic environment refers to the sum of the influences that the environment has on one's ability to control his or her weight. Food advertising, easy availability and lower cost of non-nutritious foods and beverages, larger portions served in fast food and sit down restaurants, and added fat and sugar in many foods work against healthy eating and contribute towards the obesity epidemic. Increases in technology have led to decreased physical activity, and occupations, social factors, and relationships may all cause significant stress.
Significant lifestyle changes are required to combat this, such as limiting viewing of television and other advertising, cutting back on convenience foods and meals eaten out, increasing physical activity, and adopting stress-reduction techniques.
