Izzy has been a gymnast most of her life and is an average weight for her height. She is now a freshman in college and will no longer be doing her favorite sport. She is very weight-conscious and afraid of gaining weight after what she has heard about the "freshman 15." She used to work out five days a week for five hours a day, so she decided to take up a modified regimen in the health club on campus. She tends to eat soups, salads, yogurt, and fruit. She'll allow herself a single grain serving per meal, eating three meals per day. She eats meat sparingly and instead will eat a bean-based soup or throw some sunflower seeds and nuts onto her salads. Her friends seem impressed with the amount of control she is able to show during meals and they have begun to eat in the same fashion. Before
going home for the holidays, Izzy had lost weight. While home, she continued her exercise regimen faithfully. Her parents were worried she was getting too thin so they encouraged her to eat more. For each meal she ate more than usual, she counted the calories and worked out longer to burn off what she had eaten. She lost weight over the holidays. Does Izzy have a problem, and if so, what leads you to believe this? What is the best advice to offer Izzy? Apply at least five strategies for good health, stress, and/or emotional health management.
What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary.
