Question
Review Case Study Annie
Annie is an 80-year-old widow who lives alone. She has a long history of hypertension and diabetes and suffers from the complications of CHD and neuropathy. She has diabetic retinopathy, which has left her legally blind. She has never been compliant with a diabetic eating plan but takes insulin as directed. She is 5 ft 5 in. tall and weighs 170 pounds, down from her usual weight of 184 pounds 5 months ago.
Annie reluctantly agreed to receive Meals on Wheels, so she does not have to prepare lunch and dinner except on weekends. Her daughter buys groceries for Annie every week, and her grocery list generally consists of milk, oatmeal, two cans of soup, two bananas, a bag of chocolate candy, a layer cake, two doughnuts, and mixed nuts. Her weekend meals consist of whatever she has available to eat.
1. What is Annie's BMI? How would you assess her weight status?
2. Is her recent weight loss significant? Is it better for her to lose weight, maintain her present weight, or try to regain what she has lost?
3. What would you recommend Annie eat for breakfast? For snacks? For weekend meals? Would you discourage her from eating sweets?
4. What arguments would you make for her to eat better?
