CONTINUED

• Evaluate diet for each day to spread 2,000 calories through 3-5 meals per day for everyday in between sessions
• Way of being graded is by asking patient every session on thoughts and how their body is feeling which Is mentally and physically by weight gain in between sessions as well as recorded dieting
