�Melanie, now 17, has always been considered a little overweight ever since she was a little girl and has always been told by her parents that the extra pounds were just "baby-weight". She has always struggled with body image and eating healthy especially since there are some kids at school who call her names because of her extra weight and bad eating habits and the cafeteria rarely cooks healthy meals. Melanie has decided she would like to start working out and eat healthier. She has a plan for this afternoon: she is going to sign up for a gym membership with a friend and then go to the mall to buy a healthy eating recipe book. �1. What Stage of Behaviour Change is Melanie at for physical activity, health eating, self concept and why?

1.) Melanie is in the preperation

stage for healthy eating. For physical activity, she is also in the preperation stage because she

is going to get a membership tothe gym. For self-concept, I would say that she is in the contemplation stage. She is considering getting a membership to the gym.

2.) I would place Melanie of the poor section of the continum because she does not eat healthy

and is not currently living a healthy lifestlye

1) For healthy eating, Melanie is in the preparation stage because she is getting ready to start eating healthier. For physical activity, she is also in the preparation stage, as she is planning to go to the gym regularly. For self-concept, she is in the action stage, because she is working on changing herself now.

2) I would place her at fair, because she does not have good habits at the moment, but is working towards good...

1) i would put melanie at the preperation stage, she is getting ready to take action and is on her way to taking action but she has not taken that initial step yet as going to the gym and actually eating healthier.

2) i would place melanie on the health continuum around poor borderline fair. she is working on making a change but still thinks badly about herself,

Melanie is in the preparation stage of behavior change for healthy eating because she has decided to eat healthier but she has not done it yet. She is in the preparation stage for physical activity because she has decided to get in shape but is not doing it yet. She is in the precontemplation stage for self-concept because she is not thinking of improving her self-concept.

I would place Melanie at poor for overall vitality on the health continuum because currently she has poor eating habits, poor physical activity habits, and a poor self-concept.
