Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 5 page paper describing addressing a middle-aged woman’s obesity, including a theoretical base. She leads a busy life and has little time for daily cooking or daily exercise if it has to be added to her already-full schedule. The aim of the health promotion – aside from addressing Mrs. X’s obesity and health risk factors – is to approach it in such a way that it is not yet another chore imposing itself on Mrs. X’s or her family’s schedule. It must be time efficient in order to work in Mrs. X’s life and to have any chance of becoming a point of permanent change in habits. The promotion addresses diet, exercise and promoting healthy habits. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

and that her obesity greatly increases her risk for both conditions. Expected Outcomes The intended ultimate result of this health promotion intervention is
twofold: (1) return Mrs. X to normal weight; and (2) establish healthy eating habits that will benefit the entire family. Exercise will be introduced as part of the
weight reduction focus, but also will be included as a desired long-term habit. This is not to say that Mrs. X will need
to join a health club or try to fit some other structured activity into her already-full schedule, at least not on a long-term basis. It focuses more on adding
much more physical activity to those things she already does, essentially allowing Mrs. X to accomplish two things at once: the thing that needs to be done at the
time, with the added benefit that she has gained some exercise in the process. Theoretical Base Conner, Norman and Bell (2002) discuss the
