Initialize @Published var SwiftUI

Question

I have the following

import Foundation


class TimeToEatTrackerViewModel: ObservableObject {

@Published var currentMeal: Int = UserDefaults.standard.integer(forKey: "CurrentMeal") {
    didSet {
        UserDefaults.standard.set(self.currentMeal, forKey: "CurrentMeal")
    }
}

@Published var startDay: Bool = UserDefaults.standard.bool(forKey: "startDay") {

    didSet {
        UserDefaults.standard.set(self.startDay, forKey: "startDay")
    }
}

}

I need to initialize startDay with true, how can I do that? I've tried several ways and it doesn't work, like putting this on top of didSet:

init(){
         startDay = false
      }

Thanks

Here is possible variant

@Published var startDay: Bool

init() {
    startDay = true
    if let storedDay = UserDefaults.standard.value(forKey: "startDay") {
        startDay = storedDay as! Bool
    }
}
