A. Jeremy is trying to / improve / his physical fitness, so he wouldn't like what he sees on a scale, like it says in answer C. It also wouldn't be B, because that would not be a good first event. We need backstory to why he is trying to improve, not just to see Jeremy jump right on in and do a few push-ups - that would be a good second or third event. D doesn't work either because in order to look over his progress for the week means he had been already doing this for a week. The answer is A.
