I'm dieting (weight loss) and was very pleased to find MyDietDiary for
my iPhone. I can track weight loss and enter my food intake and get
calorie counts. (As a retired psychologist, I know that science is on
my side for doing this: just keeping a log is helpful at getting you to
stay with the process).

Now I'm looking for another app that will let me do the equivalent of
the government publication "The Composition of Foods". You can look up
a food and get a full analysis of the nutrient composition of the food.
Althought MyDietDiary can do this, I was wondering if there's some app
out there that will do a better, more thorough, job.

So I'm just requesting comments. What do you find is the best
nutritional analysis program for the iPhone/iPad? I'll try all
suggestions.

Thanks for your comments.

Trying to lose a little weight? Quit screwing with your phone and
jugging your computer and haul your ass to the gym or outside for some
exercise. Also, quit pigging your face.

As a retired psychologist, you'll appreciate this classic Wayne Dyer
story about the patient who came to him saying she was afraid/unable to
ride a bicycle and terribly missed going on weekend rides with her family.

At her first appointment, he told her to get up off the couch and took
her outside where his bicycle was stored and told her to put her buns on
the seat. She said she thought they'd spend her sessions sitting in his
office talking about the problem. Dyer said no, you said you wanted to
learn to ride the bike-- get on-- and he gave her a big push down the
street...
