Abstract
Patients not meeting their dietary prescription did not adjust their intake to match the recommended advice they had been given from a dietitian. Food diary analysis showed that subjects ate less than the recommended intakes for energy and protein. This inability to change suggests that subjects may be eating to the limit of their appetite. SGA sections concerning appetite, body weight, body mass index, and estimates of energy expenditure support the view that energy intake matches requirements.
