For the anthropometric analysis were collected weight, height and hip and waist circumferences. Bodymass index (BMI) and waist hip ratio (WHR) were used to assess nutritional status. In addition, the heart rate per minute in restand exertion was measured with the use of a Polar frequency gauge. A digital blood pressure meter was used to collect systolicand diastolic blood pressure. Results: The patient studied during the two years had BMI and WHR above the ideal, but nosignificant variation was identified over the years. Only the resting heart rate of January 2015 was above ideal. During the othermonths of 2015 and 2016, vital parameters were within normal range. Conclusion: After the work performed, the patientresearched reported improvement in physical, emotional, motivational, social conditions and increased independence in dailyactivities.
