  2. Client Overview • Client : Chuck Billy • Age: 46 years old • Level of education: Graduated from college • Profession: Retail Management • Family Situation: married with two kids • Chief complaints: Legs and knees hurt

  3. Overview of health history • Weight: 285 • Height: 5’8” ft. • Adult Illness: none • Modes of relaxing: Watching TV or sporting events

  4. Research • Make sure that you eat a balanced diet. • Cut out the foods that are high in fats and sugars. • Get exercise because it will also help with losing weight. • Eat smaller food portions, all of these things will help you to lose weight and live a healthier life.

  5. Target Behavior Eat a healthier diet in order to lose weight

  6. Theory (HBM) High Perceived susceptibility: High blood pressure because the body needs to work harder to pump the blood through the body. Low perceived susceptibility: Has not had very many health problems in the past so he thinks that he will continue to be fine. Perceived Barriers: Is always out late at sporting events so he doesn’t think that he will be able to eat healthy because it will be late or he will in a rush and not have time for healthy foods. High self Efficiency: has lots of family support and has been making a very good effort to eat healthier.

  7. Theory continued Changing his diet: changing his diet will help him lose weight and make him healthier. Increased Perceived severity: higher chance to get high blood pressure based on family history. Ways of coping with stress: watching TV and going to sporting events. Getting help from peers: getting encouragement to continue to eat better.

  8. Smart Goal • In four weeks the client will start eating more healthy food and going on walks at night to try to increase weight loss. • Find other foods that he likes that are also healthy. • Slowly change from the more fatty and unhealthy foods into more healthy foods. • We will add more and more healthy foods into his diet over the four week period.

  9. Intervention highlights Being able to help my client change their eating habits for the better.

  10. Results • My Client was able to go from eating a majority of unhealthy foods to being able to eat healthier and it has shown and he is feeling better. • He has also started going on walks at night. • He did a great job of staying on track and making a really good effort to change the way he eats.

  11. Personal/professional analysis • Using the health theory that I did it was pretty easy to convince my client that he needed to change once I had all of the information to show him. • When I was helping my client I found out how rewarding it is to help people with their problems and that all of the hard work was worth it. • The hardest part of the intervention was making the time because me and my client are both really busy people.
