5 Coasters Added To My List This Year
I’m done traveling for the year and with my travels, I was fortunate to add another 5 roller coasters to my list. This brings me to a grand total of 133 individual roller coasters I have rode in my life. 5 may not seem like a lot but seeing that I didn’t actually travel just to ride coasters but rode these new coasters during normal business travel, I’m satisfied with the number.
HCG Diet – Calorie Counter
Here is a breakdown of the approximate calories of each food allowed during the HCG diet.

Unique Dining Experience – Quaker Steak & Lube
I’ve been in many themed restaurants over the years. In fact one of the best as far as having “stuff” hanging everywhere is Joe’s Crab Shack where you will find an amazing assortment of things to look at.

How I Lost 40 Pounds in 40 Days – The HCG Diet
The last few weeks have been quite a journey for me. A little over 40 days ago, I weighed in at a whopping 247 pounds.

How did I lose so much weight in such little time?
