ONE meal at a time, Ballarat\u2019s new delivery food service Good 4 U Meals is aiming to improve health.<\/p>\n

The new start-up promises to deliver restaurant quality meals that are freshly prepared and health conscious to homes.<\/p>\n

Founded by Ballarat\u2019s own former Miss World finalist Georgina Gunn and her partner and personal trainer Johnny Seng, the initiative came naturally.<\/p>\n

The idea struck the pair during COVID lockdown earlier this year when going out to restaurants and cafes for a meal was no longer a possibility.<\/p>\n

Ms Gunn said they wanted to offer people the feeling of eating restaurant quality food without the worry of staying healthy by using local resources.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring lockdown we thought restaurants might not be utilising their kitchens as much as they would like to,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe contacted the Mercure and had a chat to them about how their kitchens were being used and about partnering up.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe then worked with the chefs at the Mercure and a qualified nutritionist to put all of the recipes together.\u201d<\/p>\n

Their ethos at Good 4 U Meals is all about making healthy, tailored meals easy to access without compromising on taste.<\/p>\n

Although the service seems comparable to other meal deliveries like Hello Fresh, the pair said the key difference is the restaurant quality and customisability of the food they offer.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith others you have to make the meals yourself but with ours all of the meals are already prepared fresh,\u201d said Mr Seng.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can cater our meals towards your lifestyle goals whether you\u2019re trying to lose some weight, gain some muscle mass or eat clean and healthy.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can choose your own options from our menu according to what you want to achieve.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a 2017-18 survey, the Australian Bureau of Statistics’ found that 67 per cent of adults were overweight or obese, an increase from 63 per cent in 2014-15.<\/p>\n

To raise Australia\u2019s health standard, the pair not only want to offer a nutritious meal delivery service but also health education for their customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want people to know that healthy eating doesn\u2019t have to be a chore, it can be delicious and fun,\u201d Ms Gunn said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve always been passionate about eating healthy but I always found it difficult to do with a busy lifestyle.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course, we want to expand across Australia and have a large business but beyond that we want to be able to teach people that its good and fun to eat clean.\u201d<\/p>\n
