A)Collaboration with a nutritionist helps clients to identify healthy foods that appeal to them and that can make up a diet plan to create a daily 500- to 1000-kcal deficit. Ideally, the recommended diet should be low in kilocalories and fat, contain adequate nutrients and minerals, and be high in dietary fiber. The client should eat regular meals with small servings. A gradual, slow weight loss of no more than 1-2 lb/week is recommended. For most individuals, this means a diet of 1000-1200 kcal/day for most women and 1200-1600 kcal/day for men. Fewer than 1200 kcal each day may lead to loss of lean tissue and nutritional deficiencies.
