Publisher's summary

Are you sick of being on a diet? Do you always seem to be struggling to stop gaining weight? Fat Girl Friday is the most unique dieting book ever written – it will change the way you eat for the rest of your life! Craig Beck is one of the fittest, healthiest and most toned people you will ever meet. So why is he known around the world as ‘Fat Guy Friday’? In truth that’s exactly what he used to be.. a big fat guy! Until one day he said enough is enough and broke the cycle of yo-yo dieting that had plagued his life.

On Friday 10th September 2010 he stood on the scales at a depressing 252 lbs. He was the heaviest he had ever been, something as simple as walking up a flight of stairs would leave him gasping for air, he struggled to play games with his children and was the most miserable he had ever been. A former hypnotist, Craig knew that problems in life are primarily the result of dysfunctional programmes running in the subconscious mind, which are creating the very things we are unhappy with. Whilst he was building a system to deal with his own ever-expanding waistline he discovered two common traits shared by virtually all-overweight people. By removing these two secret problems he found that no matter who tried his system lost weight. Better than that, at no point did any of them report being hungry, irritable or unhappy during the process. In Fat Girl Friday, Craig pulls no punches and delivers a wakeup call designed to change your life for the better, forever!

The two reasons why you are overweight. Why every diet you have ever tried has failed. What the diet industry doesn’t want you to know. The secrets only slim people know. How to lose weight & feel great without feeling hungry, ever! Feel better and healthier than you ever thought possible.

Who knew

If you could sum up Fat Girl Friday in three words, what would they be?

Life changing, Thanks

What other book might you compare Fat Girl Friday to and why?

I haven't read any other book that made me stop eating what I was eating, It's only been a couple weeks and I feel amazing already

What does Craig Beck bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I love his sense of humor and his accent, he should tell his own story!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

YES! I am seriously re-examining what I eat and why, I also joined the gym and am still going after 6 weeks.. Thank you

NOT ANOTHER FAD DIET

Would you consider the audio edition of Fat Girl Friday to be better than the print version?

Yes because you can listen anytime. His voice is very convincing and his stories hit home. He is able to take complex nutritional jargon and make it very simple to understand.

What other book might you compare Fat Girl Friday to and why?

I've read dozens upon dozens of "diet" books from celebrity weight loss trainers, PHDs, life coaches, chefs, etc and all had short term benefits. Craig Beck's Fat Girl Friday actually made me change my habits and understand how simple it is to lose weight and keep it off long term.

What does Craig Beck bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Craig Beck brings humor and guidance without ever sounding flat, boring, elitest, or condescending. He sounds like a big brother who is just looking out for his friends and extended family. Reading the book is fine but only 1 dimensional, listening to the audio really brings it home.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Wheat Lied To You... ha ha ha

Any additional comments?

I am very much hoping Craig Beck makes the talk circut here in the US!

Yes Very good Funny and informative

Would you consider the audio edition of Fat Girl Friday to be better than the print version?

I have not read the book, but the audio version is great. It is informative and funny and at the same time it keeps you thinking outside the box.

What did you like best about this story?

It makes you look at food, eating and food cravings in a completely different way. If you can make it 2 weeks, then you can do it. It works! I lost 24 pounds in the first 7 weeks and was never hungry and ate anything.

Which character – as performed by Craig Beck – was your favorite?

Craig Beck

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I did have an extreme reaction, but it was more like excitement.... I have never read a weight loss book that I actually thought I could do. I love Pizza, I love lasagne, so I thought I could not do it, then I realized it wasn't the bread or the pasta I loved, it was what was on them. What a way to look at food and really enjoy it and never gain weight again. I eat topping off the pizza and throw the crust away. What a concept, and have salad with it. I have never been happier

Any additional comments?

Just open your mind and try it if you have been a yoyo dieter forever like I have.

Definitely A Must Read!!!

Craig Beck is extremely relatable, his experiences drive home the message in his book. He is also a phenomenal storyteller. He takes the daunting task of losing weight seem like a real possibility. I have recommended this book to my friends and family. I also suggest you read —Breaking Out Of Your Comfort Zone and The Art Of Happiness, Peace and Purpose. These books have changed my life! I’m positive they will do the same for you, but only if your ready.

Great help and advice.

I love the clarity and frankness of Craig Beck. He is very honest about everything we need to know about getting started and getting a person understand what needs to be done to get the job done. i appreciate his straight forward approach and not holding anything back. sometimes it takes a push to get the point across.

easy listening

I'm a fan of the paleo diet and I loved hearing a true, honest version that Craig puts out there for us. we are responsible for our own weight and I myself am sick of hearing excuses as to why we are one of the fattest countries in the world. we all need to quit being whiny little bitches and take responsibility for ourselves and our health.
