Reviewing The Jenny Craig Weight Loss Program

..........how does it measure up?

We have all seen the dramatic weight loss of the celebrities that have used the Jenny Craig weight loss program.  It is absolutely astounding the amount of weight that can be lost during a relatively short period of time.  But is this plan appropriate for every dieter?

The plan consists of weekly meetings with your advisor and will also require you to plan your menu and purchase Jenny Craig food.  The plan is very sustainable while you are on it.  The food is good and very high quality while low in fat and calorie.  The dieter will find it very simple to follow along with the menu without feeling hungry or deprived.  You are allowed to select your breakfast lunch and dinner options without restriction.  That is as long as they are on the Jenny Craig list of items you are able to purchase.

The problem with the Jenny Craig weight loss program is the expense.  It can add up very quickly if you are purchasing all of your food through the program.  It is a good plan for those who do not have families to purchase food for as well.  If you are single you can easily make the investment in the food and you are all set for the week.  But if you must buy additional food on top of the Jenny Craig food then you will run into a problem with your food budget. 

This plan is very easy to follow and you will see results with the plan.  It has a healthy weight loss of one to two pounds a week and a counselor will sit down and discuss your progress every week.  This is a good opportunity for you to work out any problems you might be having with the plan, or to find methods for reactivating a stalled weight loss.  This happens at times on diet plans and a good approach to jump starting the weight loss again after it has stalled is an effective component of any healthy weight loss system. 

There is also a maintenance plan that will wean you off of the Jenny Craig food and into real life food and scenarios.  The goal is to have you eating and cooking your own food once your weight is at its ideal goal. 

The Jenny Craig Weight Loss Program will get the weight off, but at a very high cost.  If you are interested in a method to get your weight off regardless of the cost, then this might be for you.  You will still need to learn good nutrition for your maintenance after the plan is over.
