Fattitude
- Craig Harper
While many books focus on food,
Craig teaches that creating life-long change is more about the
dieter, than the actual diet. This book is perfect for people who have a
history of 'almost' getting in shape.
DVD
or CD - Renovate Your Body In this entertaining presentation, Craig discusses the
notion of Renovating Your Body - once and for all. Many of us have a curious
ability to be able to get in shape for events (weddings, parties, reunions
and birthdays), if only we'd get in shape for life.

Okay, so I got lots of feedback about yesterdays post.
It would appear that I am not Robinson Carusoe when it comes to dealing with the social faux pas that is, the stinky breath space invader.
Now that you've got your T-shirt printed, you've embraced the very-practical S.A.R. and you've divided everyone in your life into their respective 'zones', it's time that I introduce you to some of my other big social challenges: Social Challenge Number 1. Not being distracted by that white crap that accumulates in the corner of some people's mouths when they talk. Not only do I continually wipe the corner of my own mouth in a pointless attempt to prompt them to do the same, but I can't help but focus on it and wonder where it all comes from.
Social Challenge Number 2. The previously mentioned conversational spitter.
We all know at least one spitter.
Remaining focused while someone slags on me mid-conversation is always a toughy for me.
Knowing whether to wipe or leave is also a challenge. I tend to go for the subtle wipe (while maintaining eye contact; a skill in itself).
If you know the spitter well, you can bring it to their attention with some humour.
Perhaps something like: "personally John, I don't mind the shower 'cause I was kind of hot.. but let me know in advance next time and I'll bring my soap".
I remember going to a seminar of a well-known motivator and being very excited to get a front row seat.... until he came down from the stage with his cordless microphone and proceeded to spray my friend and I with saliva.
At one point while he was whipping himself into a self-help frenzy, I actually watched some slag leave his gob, travel through the air (as if in slow-motion) and land on my forehead.
Having the reflexes of a sloth, I moved two seconds after it landed.
My friend saw the whole thing and laughed himself into hyper-ventilation.
He still talks about it.
Tool.
Social Challenge Number 3. Men with long fingernails. It's wrong.
Blokes are not meant to have long nails; girls are.
It's creepy and I find it distracting. For some reason I can't trust a man who grows his nails.
If they are long and dirty, it's even worse.
Social Challenge Number 4. People who talk way too loud for the situation they're in.
Everyone in the room knows they're an idiot, except them.
Social Callenge Number 5. Hairy hands and fingers.
Blokes who have considerable long black hair on the back of their hands and fingers (especially the fingers) make me feel queezy.
Social Challenge Number 6. Doing what I need to do in a public toilet when I've just sat down and someone plonks themself in the cubicle next door.
I freeze up.
I can't do what I need to do. I suffer from extreme pooformance anxiety.
What if I make a noise and then I see him (whoever 'him' is) at the wash basin.
I know it's ridiculous but the reality is, I can see his feet, I can hear him breathe and I know exactly what stage of the process he's up to.
He's eighteen inches away.
So I give myself an sphinctal hernia (I made that up) and put everything on hold.
I don't know why I get embarrassed, it's not as if he cares, knows me or will ever see me again.
I know.
I need help.
Social Challenge Number 7. Finger Clickers.
People (usually men) who click their fingers to get someone's attention.
Usually happens in restaurants.
I want to break their fingers so they can't click.
We don’t know why, but people go crazy for these shirts. Perhaps it’s because they allow us to tell people what we really think without wasting our breath! Order your shirt here.
