Personal Trainer
O’Keefe claims to easily put on weight. But, in order to avoid that, she makes sure that she exercises and eats healthy.
- Diet – O’Keefe has always expressed her love for cooking. She has even been called a gourmet cook several times. Her diet mantra is to eat NO processed sugar at all and also stay away from fast foods and dairy. She incorporates a lot of fresh veggies and fish in her daily diet. However, as far as dairy is concerned, she occasionally likes to splurge on cheese. As an alternative to dairy, she likes having almond milk and sometimes even has vanilla soya milk. As far as supplements are concerned, she likes to intake calcium supplements along with women’s multivitamins.
- Exercise – O’Keefe loves to do Pilates several times a week but now has changed her fitness regime from Pilates to yoga. Yoga, however, isn’t of a regular kind. She particularly loves doing steam-heated yoga which is fast-paced and works on her entire body. Apart from this, she believes that for a healthy lifestyle, one must incorporate meditation. She also sometimes engages in spinning classes.

She is the hottest woman ive seen in years and smart to
Fatty
Like Latinas, Irish women don’t age too well. At about 40ish they rapidly turn into shriveled, emaciated, birdbeak-nosed things – steadily declining from there. Jodi seems to be following more of a mamacita, puffy-matronly thing, even without having kids. She & former SBTB hottie Tiff Amber Theissen could almost be sistahs now.
