I've been considering designing a way that I can use porn as a reward in applying Behavioral Psychology on myself, a la lukeprog's post. He uses candy worms, but I try to limit my carb intake. I've been trying to brainstorm other potential rewards without much success.

I've tried this. My own appetite for porn is too variable from day to day for it to be a reliable reward.

Simply switch to using it as a punishment on the days that you have little appetite. :)
