I wouldn't recommend using food as a reward. It sets food on a pedestal it does not deserve. Food is calories and nutrition that enables you to perform your best; glorifying it as a reward for accomplishment may set you up for failure down the road.
- jbrooksuk 14y agoLike I said, works for me - I have a very high metabolism, so I don't get put on a lot of weight if I pig out with pizza once a week whilst I'm burnt out. You could try buying yourself that new watch you've always wanted. Anything which you feel is a reward.
- maglos 14y agoMy sister is an olympic level athlete, food as a reward becomes a problem for many of her competitors. Rewards help cement a habit though, personally I use music when I require extra motivation and don't when I don't need it. Maybe consider going to a req center and soak in a hot tub as a reward or a day off.
