Week 3: Mid-Point Reflection


This is a time where I reflect my habit... may it rest in peace. My 3rd week has been so off,
I have not kept track of my types of food I have consumed. In fact, I'd eat meat once every 2'
days or I'd eat meat then I'd stop more liek2-3 days or so or 2-3 meals.

If my project ended today, I would still continue the fish/veggies life but I'd be cutting down meat
as much as I can. One meal per day is when I'll eat meat. My motivations to continue is because
I have gotten sick of eating meat. For example, my family would cook beef and I'd just stare at it and decipher if I do want to eat it or not. I tell myself all the time to trust the process cause sometimes, the process can be hard and verrrrrrryyyy long.

In the first of my habit experiment, I was excellent at keeping it veggie/fish friendly. But in the second week happened then it started to decrease positive habit. It's hard having a habit when you tell yourself to trust the process but how long will your process be and how much trust do you have to put in yourself? Acordng to an article, take you anywhere from two months to eight months to build a new behavior into your life — not 21 days" (Clear). It takes that long to effectively have a habit built into your everyday life.

With this quote coming from this specific article, I feel like I can continue my personal impact project. If I take this out into the real world lets see how it greatly affects the United States.


If you take a look at all the amount that cow pasture takes up, pretty surprising huh? Well, now you know many land cows take up of the U.S. If you remember of my first blog, Americans tend to eat more beef than any other proteins. It doesn't have to be a whole world to cut down the intake of beef but it can starts off with something small, such as you cut down your intake of beef.

    If the project were to end and you maintained a constant rate at the amount of meat you eat, how would you track your consumption to make sure you did not continue your old habits? A lot of people have a hard time with tracking how much they consume every week so it would be helpful to hear strategies you have found. Also keep up with the blog posts! They looks really good.

    I agree it does get difficult after the 2nd/3rd week, and it makes it difficult to continue what you're doing because you slip up. The point is that you don't get too hung over the fact that you slipped up. Just continue doing what you did before.

    I know you said you've gotten sick of eating meat, but do you think you could cut meat entirely out of your diet? Also, what would you recommend for others to do in order to stop eating meat?

ITS OVER!! Or is it?

WE'VE BEEN LET FREE! Winter break started and the dogs have been let out. There weren't any 'Personal Impact Project' police which meant I had to somehow and some way keep my self from eating meat - uh oh. Let me tell you, this girl right here messed up real bad. The way that Homer disappears is how I left my project to crumble on its own. In my previous blog post, I've talked about coming from a culture that uses a lot of meat in their dishes. Let me just list out all the food I've eaten: breakfast sausage, BBQ ribs, chicken curry ( did you know you can add bamboo in it?!) , baked pork, honey ham, and a Filipino dish called igado (picture below).  As I always do, I'll show you my google spreadsheet of what I've eaten starting from Friday before the break and to whatever date, in all honesty, I've lost track. BIG OOF! Like what is tofu soup with a  slice of ham.  There was a day... a day when I was good, which was the 28th. I...

How did week one go for me?

For this project, I will be sticking to fish/veggies on the weekdays for all three meals. I will then eat poultry/beef on weekends but 2 out of my three meals. This habit/action of mine will be relating to food. The reason why I am choosing this plan is that my family consumes a lot of meat, all of our groceries are either red meat such as beef or chicken. Eating chicken and beef is the number one reason why slaughterhouses produce at a quicker rate. In the consumption of meat that Americans sets a breaking record in 2018. Americans will consume 222.2 pounds of meat this year in total , that is alarming. The reason why people are running away from carbohydrates is that people are more in favor of meat. Carbohydrates are seen as a negative in the society An alternative habit/action is what if I just cut off beef and poultry in my daily meals. Instead of eating chicken or beef two out 3 meals I had on the weekend, I’d just eat only veggies on the weekends. This is pretty rea...
