SHAPE is an expert system on diet and exercise which provides a diet and an exercise program for the user. The system will help compute in assessing your required calorie intake and will help determine the allowed food items of the diet program. Shape will also help determine the allowed exercise, and their corresponding sets and repetitions for the exercise program. Although the system was intended for home use, it was found out that this system can also be used by the dietitians and the fitness trainers in slimming saloons as an aid in their work. The system will only cover some health background such as hypertension, diabetic (acute), kidney stones, and family history of heart disease. This system is not intended to be used by persons with chronic ailments or other disabilities that may hinder them in performing exercises and which require a special type of diet.
