For example, the program will not allow the calorie intake target to drop below 1,000 calories if you weigh less than 200 lbs; 1250 calories if you weigh between lbs; 1500 calories if you weigh more than 250 lbs. In other cases, the goal cannot be reached by the goal date with the current calorie intake and calorie burn targets and therefore the feedback will not include the option to Keep the program the same. The actual path taken in an attempt to correct a client that is not tracking toward their goal is something that must be decided upon by you, not a computer program. Usually taking away more food is not the best place to begin but you know the client dynamics and you must employ the strategies that will be the most realistic for the client s success. Your mindset should be to get the client to their goal with the most food possible and the least amount of work. Ultimately how much their lifestyle is able to bend or conform will determine where they end up.
