I must be doing something right, because the health gods have smiled down on me! After posting my portion control related blog, "Size Really Does Matter," I received a call from my new BFF (Best Friend in Fitness) Jodi Jones, CSN.


Jodi struggled for more than a decade with Lupus and Fibromyalgia. After spending eight years on doctor-prescribed meds -- none of which seemed to help -- she looked to her own eating habits for answers. Formerly known as "Junk Food Jodi," she realized her speedy metabolism was a blessing and a curse. She could eat all of the junk food she desired, while maintaining her petite frame. However, her poor choices were leaving her malnourished, with damaged blood cells and a compromised immune system.


Jodi embraced the connection between nutrition and disease and started following a lifestyle of wellness. Within six months she was symptom free and within a year her illnesses were in complete remission! Jodi took her new knowledge to the next level and founded, Vitality Gourmet, a national food delivery service offering fresh organic, gourmet meals custom made for you. It's like being a celebrity with your own personal chef...without the pesky paparazzi!


Jodi generously offered to hook me up with her meals to teach me how big (or small) a real portion size should be, as well as a good ratio of protein, veggies and carbs. I anxiously await the arrival of my first meals this afternoon -- I will update you with photos and thoughts. In the meantime, you can visit vitalitygourmet.net for more info.
