I plan to cook on Sunday and Thursday, and I can make one or two dishes for two or three days, such as a pot of curry. I will put them in containers and freeze them as Andrea and Lisa said. The negative reinforcement will be that I do not need to clean the kitchen and wash a lot of dishes after I eat. This reinforcement is effective for me because I really do not like to wash dishes. It is very convenience, and I also don’t need to spend much time on it. I will also ask my sister to cook with me, so the cooking time can be enjoyable and interesting. We can decide the menu and share the work together. The positive reinforcement will be closer with my sister and extra cash. My sister and I have seven ages different, so it is a good opportunity to spend time with her. I also can use extra cash to buy some desserts which attract me very much. I will use variable interval for schedule of reinforcement because my behavior will be more resistant to extinction, and it is easier to use a day or a week than a number of meal.
I do not use punishment because I can not really punish myself sometimes. Therefore punishment is useless for me. I find a websit (http://yaniku.com/). It includes lots of home cooking tips that helps me alot.

Hi Rachel,
ReplyDeleteI am glad that the suggestion of cooking and freezing the food helped. Besides, I think that it is a great idea to cook with your sister to make the cooking time enjoyable. Personally, I cook during the weekends with my mother in law and it is a lot better than cooking by myself. Also, I wanted to give you the following link: http://www.foodnetwork.com/healthy-eating/index.html. Sometimes when I can’t think of anything to cook I go to this webpage. They have a lot of good and easy recipes. Good luck!
Hey Rachel
