Weight Loss Program Analysis

A weight loss program in a month is a hard obstacle to tackle. If a roommate is in need of help so that he can lose weight to make the football team, there are ways in which you can help. A behavior modification program can be set up to help the roommate. To begin, the principles of operant conditioning will get him started on his weight loss journey. In order for a successful program we need to use positive reinforcement, progress reports, and a schedule of reinforcement.

To sum things up I have added my weekly information as far as calorie percentage for eat meal of the day with breakfast 34% (526 Cal), lunch 34% (526 Cal), Dinner, 22% (341 Cal), Early Morning Snack 4% (62 Cal) and Mid-Day Snack 6% (93 Cal). Listed is the more detail list for week one, but on average I went over by 11% Carbohydrates, was under by 7% when it came to fat and under by 4% when it came to protein.

During our cardio days I would do thing like Sprints, Long distance running (three to four miles), elliptical, ruck march or the stationary bike.

The HHFKA did not take into consideration that athletes burn more calories than normal students. When a student athlete performs his or her’s sport, they burn calories in the process. Because the HHFKA did not take this into consideration, student athletes may not be receiving the proper amount of calories. Instead, the HHFKA created a one size fits all meal plan. This meal plan restricts the caloric intake of students in order to help them from gaining weight, without taking into account not all students need to have their calories restricted. In reality there is not a meal plan that can fit the needs of all students, therefore there needs to be multiple meal plans for the various types of students that schools encounter. For example, normal students should receive a tray with 750 to 850 calories, as the HHFKA requires. Student athletes should receive a tray the contains 900 to 1000 in order to help them perform to their maximum

The myth indicates that first-year college students either gain fifteen pound from eating unhealthy or lose fifteen pounds due to not eating during their first years in college. We are all encouraged to take health class in college and learn about nutrients, but we can barely apply our knowledge to campus food. Cal Poly Pomona provides various options for food around campus, but not every dining space is healthy. As diligent students around campus, I believe the campus should improve its dining options. The common phrase: “You are what you eat” is highly emphasized in health class. I suggest the replacement of Round Table Pizza with healthier local restaurants that will serve students. Our campus does not serve fish to its students, but fish is high in Omega-3 fatty acids which boost body and brain functions. As students visually see the implementation of healthy food alternatives on campus, they will apply the knowledge from health class upon their diets. In health class, we were instructed to track our diets with the MyPlate. Through my food tracking on the website, I learned what food groups I was overeating and others that I was under eating. This website mapped out my goals for dairy, fruits, vegetables, carbohydrates, calories and sugars intakes which enabled me to visualize my diet. I would suggest that Cal Poly Pomona offers the MyPlate as an option for students to do over a quarter of 0.5 units so students

Both Mr. William and I choose two weeks period to measure the actions. The reward would be experienced by Mr. William such as reduce the feeling of sluggishness and increase of energy from exercise regularly. If he follows through by limiting empty calorie snacks, it would be beneficial in his weight loss as well. As the counseling process progressing, my client would like to upgrade his reward by treating himself with a seasonal ticket to the game of his favorite football team. It is a great decision because the higher the reward, the harder he would try to accomplish his goals.

Obesity, along with over weight, have rapidly risen over the past years. In particularly obesity within children has nearly doubled causing an increase in intervention and treatments to reduce this epidemic. Obesity is linked to the development of different health issues, including heart problems, cholesterol, and diabetes. In order to reduce these health risk factors, it is important to introduce those at risk to weight loss interventions and treatments. But implementating some weight loss interventions and treatments to children may be difficult. Most interventions and treatment require the involvement of the caregiver to change and promote a healthy lifestyle. In addition, the interventions and treatments require resources, time and support

Before doing this project i never have kept track of what i have eaten. I am a pretty skinny guy so i don't really care about what i eat. I started keeping track of my eating on 2-24-17, and that continued until 2-27-17. I live a pretty busy lifestyle. I am always on the go. I love being active. I run Track and Field in the spring, and i play golf all summer. I try to eat three meals a day but that doesn't always happen. I found though when i was keeping track of the foods i was eating I would eat three meals a day. Also it would be a lot healthier too! Common foods that I eat are high in carbs and protein, such as cereal and oatmeal for breakfast, along with some eggs. For lunch i try to get some sort of chicken or beef involved along with some sort of vegetable, usually carrots or lettuce with ranch. For my carb it depends on where i am, if i am at school then it's frys, and if i am at home then it's a baked potato. My dinner is kind of different. I don't usually have a certain thing i eat for dinner. I live with my dad and he doesn't cook so it's basically whatever i feel like making and i am no expert in cooking. I am a big fan of frying up burgers or chicken in the frying pan along with another baked potato with canned fruit. If i don't do that then I put in a pot chicken pot pie. My desired calorie goal is 3534 calories a day, and my desired weight goal is to gain 15 pounds, and i am a lean 165 right now. So 180 pounds is my desired weight.

I decided to take Weight Training because I needed a fitness class and I believe that this course would motivate me to attain my personal and physical goals. My personal goals are to find an outlet to improve my mood and reduce my stress levels and gain a positive self-image. Exercising has been shown to enhance moods and lower stress. Currently, stress is having negative effects on my lifestyle because I experience fluctuating moods and barely get a good night’s sleep. I previously experienced the positive effects of exercising when I used to do Shaun’s T Focus T25. Since then, I abandoned it and have not been working out since then.
