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?
• Snacks between meals are acceptable as long as they are healthy snacks.
• Fruits and vegetables would be ideal.
• Foods with mix of protein, carbs, fat, and fiber may help prolong satiety
• Portion control for snacking
• Instead of using dessert as a reward, Jamey's mother should offer to do some kind of activity like going to the park or shopping with her—anything that will encourage physical activity.
