MEET OUR FIRST TRUE LEMON® SUPER FAN –
JEANETTE MARSHALL
 
One of the things our Grand Brands team talks about a lot is how fortunate we are to have so many devoted True Lemon® fans. We can’t tell you how much it means to us to hear from you and how much your feedback is truly appreciated.
 
Not too long ago, we decided that this website would be a great way to introduce some of our True Lemon® fans to our True Lemon® community. Because we have heard from so many of you, it was hard to select who would be our first Super Fan but after some debate, we decided that our first True Lemon® Super Fan would have to be Jeanette Marshall of North Branford, CT.
 
Jeanette first caught our attention when she wrote to us last spring and told us she uses True Lemon® 10 times (yes, you read that right) a day! A lifetime member of Weight Watchers®, Jeanette first discovered True Lemon® at her office and was immediately hooked.
 
Since her introduction to True Lemon®, Jeanette has told “all her family and friends” about it, brought True Lemon® to her Weight Watchers meeting, kept us posted about True Lemon’s® local availability and has created True Lemon® recipes! (One of which is below.)
 
 “I call True Lemon® my ‘magic dust’ because it’s so versatile and it fits so well into my lifestyle. True Lemon® smells as refreshing as a freshly cut lemon and I ALWAYS have packets in a plastic bag in my purse! I love how it tastes, the fact that it’s so portable and that it contains no calories or sodium.”
 
While you wouldn’t know it by looking at her, Jeanette says that she has always struggled with her weight. “I lost almost 20 pounds again over a year ago. It is CONSTANT work to keep it off. I use True Lemon® to jazz up water, club soda, seltzer, diet cola and tea. I also use True Lemon® as a dry rub on chicken or fish when I’m grilling or broiling. I sprinkle it on salads (especially Caesar salad) in place of dressing or I mix True Lemon® with olive oil to create my own dressing. I mix True Lemon® with pepper to have a real lemon pepper with no salt. I sprinkle True Lemon® on cooked broccoli and spinach and - one of my favorites - I use True Lemon® on steamed Chinese vegetables and chicken which I order without the MSG.”
 
Jeanette, a legal assistant with a large law firm, is a devoted daughter who loves theater, musical concerts, gardening, photography and volunteering.
 
Jeanette’s other passion is exercising and she certainly is an inspiration.  “There’s no way around it: it’s hard to lose weight and it’s even harder to keep it off. For me, exercise is so important not only to help me maintain my weight but also for all the other things it helps do. Exercising really helps me to stay strong and be energized. I don’t like going to the gym as much as the next person so I try to get exercise other ways too – taking the stairs instead of the elevator, dancing, taking a break at lunchtime and going for a walk, gardening, walking my dogs, playing tennis and biking – these are all ways that I exercise my body without feeling like ‘I’m exercising’.”
 
And, at age 45, Jeanette recently completed running her first mini-marathon! Now that’s inspiring!
 
“There is no magic pill for staying in shape – it takes hard work. At least for me, I always have to watch what I eat and exercise. True Lemon has helped to make that effort easier because it gives me the flavor that I want without the calories, carbs or fat. I love it!”
 
 
Jeanette’s True Lemon® Chicken Marinade:
 
5 to 6 packets of True Lemon® (to taste)
1 clove freshly chopped garlic
1⁄2 tsp. garlic powder
1⁄2 cup lite soy sauce.
 
Marinade chicken for 30 minutes and then grill or broil. It’s delicious!
 
We would love to profile a new True Lemon® Super Fan (or two!) every month so send an email to hcarney@grandbrands.us and tell us about how you or someone you love uses True Lemon®!
