thanks for the excellent advice. I will incorporate it into my plan. In fact, I am migrating over to a iPhone (finally!!) from a primitive blackberry, so "my fitness pal" may be one of the first apps I use.
I especially appreciate the caveat at the end, about making sure I am doing this for myself. I aspire to this. I understand the rationale for it, but I am not there yet, and I am working on it. It is a hard painful process. I may need a few 2x4s before I fully internalize it. Who here does not indulge in some (ok, a lot of) wishful thinking on occasion.
