Monica Has Been Trying to Lose Weight for About a Year

Question 68

Multiple Choice

Monica has been trying to lose weight for about a year. Throughout the past year, she has educated herself on the guidelines of good nutrition and exercise. Despite knowing that she needs to change her lifestyle, she is frustrated with her inability to lose weight and wants to quickly start losing weight. She is trying to lose 5 to 10 pounds as soon as possible because she feels that gradual changes are disappointing, and she is unable to commit to a gradual change. As a result, she ends up overeating and does not exercise. For her most recent diet, she decides to try a popular low-calorie weight-loss approach and adhere to the following program: day 1: fruits only, day 2: vegetables only, day 3: fruits and vegetables only, day 4: six bananas and milk, days 5 and 6: tomatoes only, and day 7: eat whatever you want. In addition to the diet, Monica exercises once per day for a short period of time if she has time.
Which exercise routine would be best for Monica in order to lose weight?


A) low-intensity aerobic activity for 25-30 minutes, four times a week
B) moderate-intensity aerobic activity for 45-60 minutes every day
C) high-intensity aerobic activity for 20 minutes every day
D) high-intensity weight training five times a week for 45 minutes
E) only non-weight bearing activities such as swimming for 60 minutes every day
