Reason For Referral: Dr. Emily Carter, GP, referred the patient due to concerns about weight management and newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes.
Assessment:
- Client's personal history: The patient is a 55-year-old female with a history of hypertension. Family history includes type 2 diabetes in her mother. Social history reveals a sedentary lifestyle and a diet high in processed foods.
- Anthropometrics: Height: 5'4", Weight: 200 lbs, BMI: 34.4, Weight history: Gained 20 lbs in the last year. Ideal body weight is estimated to be 130-140 lbs.
- Biochemical data: HbA1c: 8.2%, Fasting blood glucose: 180 mg/dL, Cholesterol: LDL 140 mg/dL.
- Diet history: Patient reports consuming a diet high in saturated fats, refined carbohydrates, and sugary drinks. She typically skips breakfast, eats a large lunch, and has a substantial dinner. Food security is not a concern.
- Physical activity history and limitations: The patient reports being mostly sedentary, with limited physical activity due to work and lack of motivation.
Diagnosis:
- Nutrition diagnosis based on assessment data: Excessive carbohydrate intake (ICD-10 E63.9), Overweight/Obesity (ICD-10 E66.9).
- PES statement: Excessive carbohydrate intake related to frequent consumption of processed foods and sugary drinks, as evidenced by elevated HbA1c and fasting blood glucose levels.
Intervention:
- Nutrition prescription tailored to the client's needs and goals: A 1500-1600 calorie diet with a focus on portion control, balanced macronutrient intake, and increased fiber intake.
- Food and/or nutrient delivery: Education on meal planning, reading food labels, and choosing healthier food options. Recommend reducing intake of sugary drinks and processed foods.
- Education on specific nutrition guidelines, physical activity, health behaviors: Provide education on the glycemic index, portion sizes, and the importance of regular physical activity. Discuss strategies for incorporating 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week.
- Counseling: Motivational interviewing to explore barriers to dietary changes and physical activity. Develop a plan for gradual lifestyle changes.
- Coordination of nutrition care with other healthcare professionals if needed: Coordinate care with the patient's GP and endocrinologist.
Monitoring and Evaluation:
- Progress evaluation: Monitor blood glucose levels, weight, and dietary intake at follow-up appointments. Assess the patient's adherence to the dietary plan and physical activity recommendations.
- Follow-up care: Schedule a follow-up appointment in 4 weeks to assess progress and make any necessary adjustments to the plan.

(For each section, only include if explicitly mentioned in transcript or context, else omit section entirely. Never come up with your own patient details, assessment, plan, interventions, evaluation, or next steps—use only the transcript, contextual notes, or clinical note as reference for all information. If any information related to a placeholder has not been explicitly mentioned, do not state that in the output; simply leave the relevant placeholder or section out entirely. Use as many lines, paragraphs, or bullet points as needed to capture all relevant information from the transcript.)
