Austin: WHERE for SXSW
Y’all know I make a lot of lists about my fave places in Austin. Now there’s a new list-tastic app called WHERE that is currently ranked at the number 1 navigation app on the iTunes store and is getting over 40,000 downloads a day!

HCG Diet Day 21
Well, I weighed in the same as yesterday. I look and feel good but cannot break this weight!! UGH!! You have to take the last three days off from taking HCG, and I took it this morning, so I’m at least extending an extra day. Will see how I feel, if I feel like I’m…

Day 19 HCG Diet
I am pleased to note that I am breaking habits … like the habit where you get back in from something (skiing, walking, shopping, running errands, whatever) and feel like it’s time for a snack.
