The Jenny Craig Critic-Find Out Why This Diet Does Not Work!

First off, why am I a credible Jenny Craig critic? Well, I feel I am already a much qualified Jenny Craig critic only because I tried the plan up until the gold membership stage. I am not saying that as a Jenny Craig critic, I will be giving expert advice nor am I saying what I say here will actually hold true to everyone. My role here as a Jenny Craig critic is that I will be delivering what happened to me in the best and in the most honest way that I can.

But first off, what is the Jenny Craig plan? According to their sire, the Jenny Craig plan is a weight maintenance program that will help you in three ways. One it will wean you off your usual unhealthy eating habits with the help of their prepackaged meals. Two it will encourage a healthier lifestyle tailor fit just for you by analyzing who you are and what level of activity do you have. Three, it will give you all the support you need through the counselors that you can either call over the phone or you can meet them weekly in your Jenny Craig local center.

These all look good when written but in actual experience, these things never delivered.

First, the food. This was a huge set back in terms of my budget as each week I shield out from $100-$150 just for my food alone. The Jenny Craig groceries had prices that were meant for people with the big bucks.

And the serving size? After eating one meal, instead of feeling full, you feel deprived and empty especially if you eat with your family. On the first week I ate with my family but when I noticed that I seem to feel sad and lonely after a few nights of seeing them eat heartily while I eat my “prison food” (that was what my husband called it), I started eating earlier than they did.

For items two and three of their “weight management or maintenance service,” Jenny Craig failed to deliver. My counselor knew practically zip about losing weight because she was a “living lollipop,” sort of like Calista Flockhart in Brothers and Sisters. She said I should eat this amount of calories and when I told her that the food she was selling me seemed too much, she turned a cold shoulder and said I had to eat everything or else I will fail. This was coming from a girl that seems to have never experienced moving two dress sizes up.

All in all, the entire program was a waste of my 5 months and hard earned dollars. I guess it took me a while to realize that because I wanted it to work. Sadly though, I failed. And as a Jenny Craig critic, I now have to say it was easy to mark Jenny Craig plan as a “DO NOT TRY.”

However, a month after this I discovered Fat Loss 4 Idiots and that greatly changed my life. Their tag line, lose “11 pounds in 9 days” is actually an understatement for me as I lost a great 12 pounds! And all it cost me was less than $70 for the entire program!

Jenny Craig for Men

Jenny Craig for men has stemmed from a weight loss and Nutrition Company founded by Jenny and Sidney Craig in Melbourne Australia in 1983 named ‘Jenny Craig’ which then commenced operation in the U.S in 1985. Since 2006 the company has been part of the Nestle Nutrition Company. Jenny Craig began providing frozen and dry food packages to clients as a means of diet control and has since branched out into cookbooks and programs that encourage clients to make food choices from readily available foods, as well as an at-home program for people who do not live close to an established center. Jenny Craig for men is especially designed for men wishing to improve their lifestyle and weight levels. The plans are convenient and easy to follow with the goal being long term so the occasional treat of beer and fries are included!

Whatever program suits you the best Jenny Craig for men is focused on individual weight management along with personal counseling and personally designed food menu’s that are either shipped out to clients directly or available in the centers.

The Jenny Craig for men weight loss program is based on combining the right foods, alongside a physical plan as using the gym alone has proven to not be enough for maintaining a man’s healthy lifestyle and weight control.

The program starts by introducing clients to the plan slowly so it becomes a normal part of everyday life.

Jenny Craig for men has many different plans available, however after the first consultation initially clients are given a menu to follow combining Jenny Craig pre-packaged frozen and dry foods alongside groceries of fresh vegetables and dairy products. Eventually clients can create their own menu’s from a similar range of foods and once half way through the plan eliminate days where the planned menu’s are not used.

Over the years Jenny Craig has become a popular weight loss plan with ordinary people and many celebrities successfully using the program, and now American actor Jason Alexander has become a spokesperson for Jenny Craig since February 2010.
