Melanoma Risk Part 3

Have you ever had a mole removed that was "precancerous"? You should know what the pathology of the mole is. If the pathology report showed a dysplastic nevus you are at increased risk to develop a melanoma.

Trick or Treat - The Day After

I was pleased to see that one of my weight loss coaching clients has had a huge success and I wanted to share it with you. I have her permission to share. Remember yesterday I talked about that Halloween candy and the fact that if you are trying to lose weight, plan not to have much around.

Well Laurie is doing well and I believe she will not eat the candy. Read about her success at www.refusetodiet.com.

Trick or Treat

Since it is Halloween, I feel the need to say something about candy and our children. If you have not gone out and bought candy for the trick or treaters, consider doing this. Instead of buying candy, buy pencils or small boxes of crayons. If you buy some Halloween pencils with special Halloween erasers, these are great things for the children. Something they can actually use and something that will not be detrimental to their health.

We have given pencils since the second year we were married. I learned in that first year that guess who ate the left over candy. Something I did not need to be doing. Kids love the fact that you are giving them something different and the parents usually have a smile for me when the kids ask what it is and they learn they're getting pencils.

Happy Halloween!!
