Breaking your goal down into mini goals is a good way of getting through the first few weeks until the routines are established. Rewards are a good way of keeping up the incentive, but beware of using food to say 'well done' to yourself.
I think for many people adjusting their diet and lifestyle should also include a change to the way they view food. It might be a good idea to break the association of ‘naughty’ food being the chosen reward. There isn’t much difference between using and abusing (two letters!)
Instead of a food ‘treat’ go for rewards that enforce the fact there’s more to life than food:
a lie-in (this can be super-rewarding if you're a new parent)
cinema/DVD
flowers
massage
