and pseudo-science. Let Craig's Director of
Nutrition cut through the dietary confusion and
contradiction for you.
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.

No lesson (as such) today as my Monday was somewhat manic. However, I do have a few interesting bits and pieces for you...
Me on TV
My boy Johnny has assembled a nice little selection of some of my more recent TV segments on the Ten Network for your perusal, edification and enjoyment. You will notice a new menu option near the picture of my boof head (top left) creatively titled "Craig on TV" - Johnny came up with that all by himself. The segments are a mix of health/fitness stuff and personal development stuff. They are tasty little bite-size installments (5-8 minutes), low GI, easy to chew and digest and shouldn't give you heart burn - and you won't lose half your day watching them. Unless of course, you watch them all back to back. Hmm, good point. Anyways... it means that today you can listen to and watch a lesson (or fifteen), rather than read one. Bonus. Let me know what you think and if you find them a valuable addition to our class room. You can take a look here.
Our RYL Winner
Over the last few weeks we have run a competition with a place in our May RYL Program(including airfares) up for grabs. We asked people to share why they would be a great candidate to be involved in a program such as this. We had a bunch of touching entries and of course I'm gonna say that plenty of people could have been chosen (which is true) but the reality is we could only choose one... and this time that person is Amy. Here's her entry.
Hi Craig,
I read your post today and I would love the opportunity to come to the Renovate Your Life workshop. Could you pass my message on to the lady offering the placement please? First of all, thank you for presenting this opportunity to everyone. It's a quietly gracious act, which is a beautiful thing.
I would like to go to the workshop. I've been overweight and shy since childhood and only recently realised that I developed a sort of protective camouflage against the world around me. I keep my head down and stay out of trouble. I go along with what other people want, because it's not worth arguing about. I don't make waves. I've programmed myself to stop wanting things. It's like a little switch in my head which automatically re-directs all the dreams and possibilities and wants into the "too hard, you don't deserve it, you can't do it" pile. It tells me that the things I want to do and be are too difficult for a fat, under-educated drone and I should just stick to a safe, mediocre job and routine. I can see where these patterns started, but I don't know how to stop/change them.
I want to change.
Last year I read Craig's book "Fattitude". That year, for the first time since I was born, my weight went down instead of up. It was only ten kilos. It's not much, but I did it myself. I didn't think I could do anything like that - I can't even begin to explain what an effect that had on me. I suddenly had the power to change something that I had thought of as a constant in my life - it was like being able to change the colour of the sky. I want to see what else Craig can teach me.
I can't afford to get to Melbourne and to the workshop. I shouldn't even take the time off work. I'm probably going to end up unemployed soon. I'm also currently supporting my best friend - she's living with me because she had nowhere else to go and can't work (illness) at the moment. The money's tight, but I wouldn't miss having her around for anything. I don't have any major sob stories. I haven't had any major illnesses to overcome, I don't have a messy divorce and six kids in my recent past, I haven't declared bankruptcy over a broken business. What I have is an overwhelming feeling that I'm turning invisible and fading away in my own life.
I'm not even sure if a motivational workshop will help me. But I need to get my head right if I want to grow past where I am now. I've been stuck in the same place for nearly a decade now. I want to try to change.
Thank you for the chance,
Amy
You're very welcome Amy and I look forward to meeting you, hugging you and spending a weekend with you.
Finally...
Before I sign off today, I just want to acknowledge the response to yesterday's article. It was very humbling and gratifying for me. While my post was in no way intended to be a fishing expedition, I will say that I was mildly overwhelmed (can you be mildly overwhelmed?) by the level of support shown for what we're doing and creating here at me-dot-com, and for my writing. Thankyou. I've said several times that it is my goal to create the best free online personal development resource in the world. Of course I don't know if we'll get there, but if we don't it won't be for lack of endeavour or commitment. By the way, I don't care if you never spend a cent here at me-dot-com or if you never attend one of my workshops or programs, you will always be welcome and your place in my classroom will never be conditional upon any kind of financial support. No tricks, no agenda and no fibs. Trust me, there are much more effective (and easier) ways to make money than a blog!!
