Conference Notes

I went into Dr. Archibald's office knowing pretty much what I was going to do with my research paper and wanted to see his view and if I was on the right path. The topic of crash dieting can be viewed in one of two ways. One is that you can go with the doctors and other sources stating that crash dieting is bad. Two would be to go against the normal thinking and say yes it is okay to do this and give your sources who show it is okay. I chose the second choice. I felt that there is a bigger range of yes' versus the nos. I put together a mind map yesterday and that pretty much fueled my ideas in the way of the second idea. While speaking with Dr. Archibald I asked questions about sources, and if I could include some information about the bad side since I am for the good of crash dieting. He said yes, and encouraged me to think outside of the norm. I plan to do more research and put the links and other things within my mind map. Start there and develop my ideas.

  1. Your idea seems like a good one to get people thinking. I feel like you've put a lot of thought into it and have a clear purpose.
