Module 10 Discussion – Eating Disorders, Nutritional Support
Directions:
In this video a 12 year old girl, Briana, is struggling with morbid obesity. She weighs over 300 pounds. She has been told that being this overweight will affect her health. She also feels very self-conscious about her weight and is bullied by her classmates. Briana’s parents express concern about her health as well. When her mother is interviewed about what food she serves the family she appears to be very interested in making any necessary changes. A trip to the market to find out what she purchases for family meals reveals that she does not seem to know what would be best to prepare for Briana so she can lose weight. The well-being of their daughter Briana is a worry for Briana’s parents as well. During the course of the conversation with her mother about the meals that she prepares for the family, it emerges that she is extremely interested in making any required adjustments. A trip to the grocery store to find out what she buys for the family’s meals indicates that she does not appear to be aware of the types of foods that would be most beneficial for Briana to consume in order to facilitate her weight loss. Briana’s mother appears to be “stuck” on buying what she thinks are healthy foods which includes canned vegetables and very little fresh fruit and vegetables.
