Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The client's behavior of continuing to dress in loose, baggy clothing and frequently talking about being fat despite significant weight loss indicates a disturbance in body image. This is commonly seen in clients who have experienced significant weight changes and may require additional support and counseling in order to adjust to their new body image. Role confusion, fear of success, and lack of education are not as likely to be the primary reasons for this behavior.
