Press ReleaseDiet Industry Newcomer Hits the 1 Million Unit MarkNEW YORK, May 12, 2008 -- portionpals(R), an innovative weight-loss tool is proud to announce it has hit the 1 million sales mark this past Saturday, May 10th, in less than its first year of operation. portionpals(R) is fast becoming the "diet" alternative among consumers looking for a healthy way to lose weight. This "new kid on the block" is gaining market share in a multi-billion dollar industry with no national distribution channel.Unlike other weight-loss programs, portionpals(R) doesn't require high start-up costs or recurring monthly food fees. It takes the guesswork out of eating by providing users with the exact USDA recommended servings for meat, poultry, fish, sides and desserts. The five silicone cutting board discs are easy-to-use, microwavable and even dishwasher safe -- clearly making portionpals(R) an industry favorite. We credit our success with our consumers giving great word-of-mouth on our product but have been blindsided with the overwhelming demand from major companies in our wholesale division. We have drug, telecommunication, public utilities, hospitals and even car companies ordering anywhere from 100 to 100,000 units to give away to their employees or customers. We even had a major sports team give away 15,000 at a game, says Mark Jackson of portionpals(R). "Although NOT a diet, the plan is to aid the consumer by giving them a simple guideline that is easily integrated into their overall lifestyle," says portionpals(R) founder Paris D'Jon. "Our success has definitely been giving people the opportunity to eat the foods they love and therefore preventing the effect of yo-yo dieting."

Headquartered in Port Washington, NY, portionpals(R) is rapidly becoming the barometer by which all meals are measured and consumed.
