Megan and Jim’s diet
Megan’s diet consists of no meat as she is a vegetarian and lots of
carbohydrates as she needs them due to all the exercise she does. She is also
at the age where she needs the right food in order to grow. The problems that
may arise with the food she eats includes the price as fresh fruit and
vegetables are more expensive. Another problem may be that her family may
not be willing to change to change to vegetarian foods. She is also suffering
from peer pressure and is conscious about her weight which may have
influenced her choice to become a vegetarian. Her mindset may also influence
her determination to converting to a vegetarian. Her diet will make her feel
more full and she will have more energy as the food she eats has more fibre in.
She however does have a good body weight but feels pressured to be skinner
due to photos of celebrities in the media, which would have been
photoshoped. Megan also plays netball which would her keep her weight
average and her healthy.
However, Jim’s diet is very different as he eats quick to cook meals which are
also at the same time very fattening. He hasn’t got a lot of money which
contributes to him not eating fruit and vegetables as they can be very
expensive. His diet is affecting him by causing him to have type 2 diabetes
which could be easily controlled if he took more care of himself, even though
he doesn’t have very good mobility, just changing what he ate could help him
lose weight and hopefully control his obesity and diabetes. Things that could
help him control his obesity and diabetes is that he starts making homemade
meals instead of always having takeaways as they can contain a lot of fat.
