Summary

Guess what happens when you're in and out of the hospital with your kids over a couple of weeks? You get sick. That's where Lizz at this week. Will she ever get a break? Kelly, on the other hand, is 11 weeks into her sugar-free journey and feeling great! So great that she broke down and bought an American Girl doll. However, it's totally a business expense! Some quick industry news reveals the Mazda leg room lie that Kelly is investigating. They say that the second row has more room, but by her measurements that might not be entirely true. Did she just uncover a massive conspiracy? Plus, Subaru Outback sales are down and Hyundai has a fix for their power folding seats. Before their interview this week, Kelly and Lizz NEED to chat about the Coachella weekend. Who did they love watching? What are their thoughts on Justin Bieber's controversial performance? This all leads to a very important conversation: Kelly wants Ella Langley bangs. Then it's on to a conversation with Wendy Speake, author of "The 40-Day Sugar Fast". She talks about how her sugar-free lent journey led to a movement with thousands of people joining in each year. Plus, what she has learned during her sugar-free journey over the years and how you can get started on yours.
