Recommended: List the principles of nutrition

I have a great familiarity with Debbie. I know a lot of her personal story. I started by going over her medications and supplements and there was a lot of silence, so I started talking nutrition- what I was interested in, what I was looking for, explaining fat-soluble and water-soluble vitamins, and Omega-3’s in fish vs. plant form. She’s always interested in what I have to say on nutrition and has a basic science background. I showed her the fake chocolate study from class. But it turned into a mini summary lecture on what I’ve been studying for the past 6 years. Not something I would do in a normal counseling session. I’d collect that info ahead of time.

    Currently, LG takes medication for high cholesterol. She has been informed this is likely genetically inherited from her father and cannot be controlled with just diet and/or exercise. She goes yearly to her primary physician to manage this condition. She has one sibling with bipolar disorder and the other two do not have any medical problems. Her oldest brother and his family provided most of the hands-on care for their father a few years before he died and this has helped LG, her siblings, and all of the family members be more vigilant about staying healthy, eating well, exercising, and getting regular medical checkups.

    There are many things that have molded me into the person I am today such as being born into a family with four children. With three siblings, I have been forced to be able to work out problems from stealing each other’s toys to having to rush to the emergency room to get stiches because my brother chased me around the house and I tripped. My mother, father, brother, and two sisters were all born in Pennsylvania and I am the odd ball and I was born in Adrian, Michigan. From when I was a child I always loved being involved with sports because of my competitive nature.

    479 Words  | 1 Pages

    Within my fifteen and a half years of living, I have experienced many heart wrenching moments that have changed who I am, so many that I stopped trying to keep count long ago. Like most teenagers, the past couple of years have been some of the most confusing, hectic years of my life. I'm at that age I'm trying to figure out who I am, as well as who I want to become. As indecisive as I am, I will more than likely change my mind a time or two, but right now at this very moment, I've finally come to terms with who I really am, and what I would like to do for the rest of my life.

    Some people like to stay in control of their life and avoid any amount of extraordinary risk to protect their self-disclosure. Other people don’t shy away from challenges as they are confident that certain obstacles are nothing more than just another thing standing in their way from living life to the fullest extent. Through personal experience, I’ve realized that personal comfort is nothing more than a variety of fears that limit me from challenging myself.

    While I putted the data in the computing I made eye contact and she was looking at me differently. After, I finished, she received nutritional counseling, and she asked me, where did I study to become a Nutritionist? I said, “ I did my first two years at Bronx Community College and my last two years at Lehman College. She said, “I am a LPN and I am not working now.” I think I did something different, because if we had that kind of conversation meaning the participant creates a bond with me. I checked the participant record, and I did the certification, six months ago, probably I already saw the participant more than once, and she felt confident during our conversation. According to Shapley et al., (2000). He states that in an interview or in this case an assessment it is important the elements of bond, goals and tasks should be present. The lack of one of these elements is a failure of the counseling process. On way of creating a strong bond is by building rapport. Shapley states that building rapport is not easy, because if the health professional only follows the theory that learns in school and does not make strategies to engage the patients, sometimes counseling is not successful. Patients tend to lose the interest and trust. There are two types of communication that would be effective, verbal and non-verbal communication. With this participant I meet these

    The shock, relief, and surprise that flooded her face is something I could never forget. The little "O" that her mouth made, her entire forehead, ears, and nose lifted in surprise as she let of the softest, most excited noise I had ever heard in my entire life. Her icy blue eyes filled with a mixture of shock and joy behind those glasses of hers that now started filling with tears. Not long after I told her she had rivers of her own running down her cheeks while pulling me in for another bone shattering hug. She practically had to drag me to the car because I was a complete and utter wreck. She dragged me quickly and quietly to the car that seemed like a mile away. She made it look so effortless to drag a nearly passed out fourteen year old baby to that car. GO

    It was around 10 o’clock on a Friday night. I was home alone, because my parents and my brother had all made plans to go out with their friends or small groups. I had elected to make it a lazy evening, where I would lay on the couch and watch TV, all while being tightly wrapped in a few blankets to keep warm. I may have dozed off for a few minutes, and when I awoke, it had begun raining quite hard. In fact, there was thunder and lightning, and a few moments of hail. The sound of the driving rain against the house lulled me back to sleep.

    The night way cold and rainy, no moon was present. As people walked down the street never once looking up, eyes glued to their phones with an infinite amount of apps, infinite wasted time. The buildings were tall, concrete on the north side of the city, offices and high rises for business men and the wealthy. To the south were old brick buildings, a historic downtown from the original city, narrow streets and no stop lights. The contrast was incredible, in the north was the present, in the south was like something out of a Noir film. In the west was the docks, they had never changed, wooden structures reaching out and large filled dry docks. The city was always busy with trade, imports exports, everything

  • Personal Narrative: Life Lessons Learned In My Life

    1997 Words  | 4 Pages

    There have been tons of things that I have learned and been taught in my life, by a number of people such as family, teachers, or even friends on occasion. The things they taught me vary from math and other related subjects to just some truly simple yet meaningful life lessons. However, there is nothing quite as unique, quite as special as a person teaching themselves a life lesson. It really is an amazing accomplishment for a person to teach themselves something. It is not quite as simple as another person teaching them something because it is not just the transferring of information from one person to another. The person instead has to start from scratch and process the information they have in their mind in order to come up with a new thought
