Final Answer : D, Explanation :  Option D asks an open-ended question that allows the client to express their concerns about changing their eating patterns. This can help the nutrition counselor explore the perceived pros and cons of a client in regard to changing dietary behaviors. Options A, B, and E do not specifically address exploring the client's perceived pros and cons, and option C may come across as forceful and not respectful of the client's autonomy.
