Do you grant that I can have reflective preferences about the way my values should change in the future?

No. If you have a preference about how your values should change, it means you have conflicting values. If you think that you want your values to change, this probably means that the conscious you places more value on one preference, and the unconscious you places more value on another. This is what is happening when people say they wish they could eat less. Their minds want to eat less, and their bodies want to eat more.
