Haley, a 34-year-old single female, weighs 210 pounds, is 5?8? tall and has a medium frame. The physician asks you to assist Haley in planning a diet that will allow her to lose 1 to 2 pounds per week. As you discuss Haley's diet with her, you determine that her typical diet consists of these foods: two pieces of bacon, two eggs, one slice of cheese on one biscuit with 8 oz of 2% milk for
breakfast; 4 oz hamburger on a bun, one cup of fries, 32 oz of cola for lunch; two slices of a 12-inch loaded pizza, two cups of salad with 2 tbsp of ranch dressing, 32 oz sweet tea for dinner; and snacks of 6 oz lite yogurt, 1 oz of chips, 1 oz of pretzels, and diet cola throughout the day. A decrease of 500 calories per day will result in a 1-pound weight loss in 1 week. With this knowledge and the information you have collected about Haley, calculate a new total caloric intake for her to consume each day. How many total calories is Haley allowed per day? Devise a sample daily diet for Haley. Remember to include food items that will supply Haley with the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients she needs.
