Review
'What made me change was reading a book by Jason Vale. He was the first person who said 'It's up to you!' ANNE DIAMOND in The Daily Mail 'Your book has been invaluable to me and has changed my way of thinking completely. I feel enlightened and lucky to have come across you in my life journey. If you're in Harrogate sometime, maybe we could meet over a fresh cup of!juice! Thanks again bud.' Ramesh Mehay 'Thank you, thank you, thank you for your brilliant book!Even my husband, who is very much an 'eat as little fruit and veg as possible' kind of person, is reading the book and, after just a few days of cutting out the rubbish, is 'hooked' on this way of thinking and eating.' Lynne Pritchard E-mails from readers of Slim 4 Life: 'I discovered Slim 4 Life via a display in Waterstones. The bright yellow cover and the extraordinarily healthy looking bloke pictured caught my eye. As soon as I began reading the first page I realised that here was something different. And I loved your style of writing- straight forward, humorous and really interesting. I couldn't put it down!I am slowly converting my office with my enthusiasm. Added to which they can see the improvement in my skin and weight loss (8lbs in 4 weeks- yippee!). They have all noticed as well that I am eating loads of food- certainly not starving myself like half the girls in the office! So far, 2 girls and 1 guy have bought your book- and two have already bought a juicer.' Erica Raby, Blackpool 'I've just finished reading your book Slim 4 Life. Wow!! Many, many thanks. I'm recommending it to all my friends.' Hilary Baines

Customer Reviews

Good, motivational book.
I was given this book by a friend of mine who'd read it and found it very helpful. I wasn't hugely overweight, but was finding it hard to lose the 2 stone I wanted to drop. I read the book in one sitting - it was a little bit happy clappy/preachy in places, but if you take the advice in it then you will benefit from it. I don't think it's realistic for many people to totally give up alcohol, but cutting down won't hurt, and not having any for 2 weeks isn't something anyone should have a problem with.

The recipes given in here have introduced me to things I would never have touched before, and I feel so much healthier it's untrue - I have a juice for breakfast every day, and the difference it's made to my life is massive; I have so much more energy now it's amazing, and I was losing 2 lbs a week without too much effort or discomfort!

There is some repetition between Jason Vale's various tomes, but the advice given is good, and visualisation is an important tool to motivate yourself - without it you will go off-track quickly. Over a year later I'm still eating well, so it's made a permanent change to my attitude.

A book full of great inspiration and humour!
As soon as I got this book and read it, I just couldn't wait to get started. After trying to inspire myself to go on yet another diet after years of trying to loose weight, that says alot! I am now on day 7 and have lost alot of weight! I found the first day quite difficult and had a tremendous headache, however I woke up the next day feeling great. Every day I feel better and better. Not only have I lost weight after years of trying to diet, but I also have alot more energy to keep up with my 3 children under 8 years old. This is the exact boost that I needed, thanks to a kick up the bum from Jason Vale! He doesn't pussyfoot around the fat issues and gets straight to the point. This is a great book for anybody who has been making pathetic excuses not to get healthy! As Jason says: THERE ARE NO EXCUSES!! The great bonus of this book is that the recipes are delicious and easy to make. This of course is a great help if you want to stick to the programme.

This book will get you moving
I've read quite a few health books, in the hope of being inspired. And they have, for a day or two, but the overriding feeling of missing out on something, always broke my will to continue.
However Jason's witty, informative and down to earth approach made so much sense I felt like I was missing out by not getting with the programme.
Within two days of reading the book I was ready to go. It's been 8 days now and I'm feeling fantastic. Ok so I had a bit of a headache for a couple of days, but Jason prepared me for it, so I had the appropriate mind set to deal with it.
With the daily visualisations he recommends it's easy to keep it up. My dreams of having a great body are now realistic and not that far off.
It's one of those books that just makes the penny drop.
