Friday Favorites

Filed under: Favorites — Trisha @ 2:48 pm

Happy Friday!

Foot Cancer

Yes, you read that right. That’s what I said: Foot cancer. According to a BBC news story “cancers of the foot and ankle are often missed or diagnosed too late” and “survival rates from these particular cancers are poor”. Read “Are you hiding cancer under your socks?” to learn what to look for and to protect yourself from foot cancer.

Disney!

Actually this is more of an autism story than a Disney one, but since I love Disney World, especially EPCOT I had to put it in my Friday Favorites: Autism, Talking Turtles, And The Magic Of Disney.

Weight Loss

Earlier this week I posted about how There’s no magical way to lose weight. You may also be interested in reading the FTC’s Weighing the Evidence in Diet Ads.

And speaking of fitness JoLynn Braley made her first video post this week: Your Weight Loss Mindset - First Video Post!. She did really well with it! And I’ll tell you one thing - that’s something you’re never going to catch me doing! I’m way too shy. If I were to make a video post, I wouldn’t be in it myself! Maybe I’d make a video post of my cats!

To me and DazzlinDonna! To Donna because her blog SEO Scoop Is 4 Years Old Today! (Not today any more, but the 26th, when the post was written.) To me because I won the random drawing she held! I won an online press kit template. And I swear I didn’t comment just to win something!

Have a great weekend!

hehehehe, that’s too funny Trisha, but a video of your cats would be fun, too!

Thanks for linking to my first video - I still have a lot to learn but plan to make another one.

And that’s a great link I hadn’t seen before to the fallacies of these quick-fix diets. I wrote a post about that that is hilarious, a couple of sites the FTC put together to spoof those outlandish claims. It’s just so silly, saying you can keep eating whatever you want and still lose weight - that’s what that Sprinkle Diet/Sensa tells you.

Thanks again, and make it a great weekend for yourself, maybe I’ll see ya on Twitter!
