I have yet to pick an official start date for this project, but I think that I really need to start on Monday of next week if I want to give myself enough time to accomplish these goals. I think that it will be hard for me to remember to keep a journal, and record meals and all that jazz. And I think that it will be hard to take the time to cook meals for myself and find new recipes, and the way that I want to present my change project to the class (feeding the high schoolers lunch) will be very difficult for me. I think that I will need to start cooking for myself more and find more new and interesting recipes so that it is a lot easier for me to keep up with this change, even after we are done doing the project in school. I think one reward would be keeping my body healthy. I have yet to think of anymore rewards to give to myself throughout the project, but I think that I will come up with more as we get farther into the project.
My thoughts about the project right now are that this will be really good for me, both health and mentally wise, and that this will help me learn how to diet, for when I get older and there may be more of a problem with my weight and the foods that I eat. I also think that if I stick with this change project after we are done doing it in school, it will help build my character and it will help with the strength of my willpower, because I know that both of those are lacking, in my mind at least. I am really looking forward to doing this project and accomplishing the goals that I have set for myself.
