Asmita, a young marketing executive, began her health journey with high energy. But three weeks in, she looked drained. “I tried, but I couldn’t do it,”. Instead of picking apart her plan, I asked, “What got in your way?” One insight “I have a project due, I usually don’t have an appetite when I’m anxious” shifted everything. We added calming cues and pre-packed snacks, and by our next session, she felt more in control.
That’s the power of behavior-focused follow-ups. They’re not just reviews, they’re opportunities to reconnect, reframe, and reinforce change. This can be achieved with Motivational interviewing.
What is Motivational interviewing?
Ask Better, Not More
Trade “Did you follow the plan?” for “What felt doable this week?” Let curiosity, not compliance, lead.
Fresh & Practical Follow-Up Ideas:
ReeCoach helps dietitians manage records, plans, and progress, while clients use the integrated Reework Mind & Body App for plan access, tracking, and reflections making follow-ups truly two-sided. This seamless bridge between professional planning and client execution makes behavior-focused care more consistent, interactive, and impactful. [3]
You can send one practical scenario prompt via the chat section of the dashboard (e.g., “If lunch runs late, what’s your go-to option?”) to build decision-making skills. Clients can reply instantly, and you can review these in ReeCoach’s dashboard.
Share one small, doable swap weekly (e.g., “Swap chai biscuit for roasted chana”). Monitor adherence via diet recall. You can monitor whether they have eaten as planned through the diet recall section on your dashboard.
During your weekly follow-up call or message, ask: “If you were in my shoes, what would you tweak in your current plan?”
Clients reply via chat, and you can document their response within the ReeCoach notes section to refine future plans.
Make Follow-Ups a Ritual
End each session with a win, a laugh, or a mini-challenge. Follow-ups aren’t just accountability, they’re connections.
