Ms. W is a 62-year-old retired client in the clinic today for a wellness visit. After weighing the client, the nurse comments that her BMI is > 35

The client is aware of a steady weight gain over the past 5–6 years, but claims it is related to menopause. The best response for the nurse would be: 1. "Many women gain significant amounts of weight following menopause.". 2. "This may be a good time to discuss diet programs, since you are obviously overweight.". 3. "Women have a tendency to gain weight as they get older, but increased exercise and cutting back on fats and sugar could help prevent other medical problems in the future.". 4. "Being overweight is a concern, but since you are healthy otherwise we can just watch for awhile to see what happens.".
