Jenny Craig Review #244 by Judy on April 6th, 2010 at 11:53 AM CDT

I actually worked for Jenny Craig a couple of years ago -- it was a joke. Their so-called "consultants" with their lab jackets were fresh off the fast food lines. Imagine -- one day they're flipping burgers and handing out fries -- the next day they're "consulting" people about healthy food choices. It was all about the MONEY from selling the over-priced food.

Well, expensive or not, the food is delicious and worth the money. It would be much more expensive to buy all the ingredients and make all of the variety of foods that you get on the Jenny Craig memu. I have tried some of the other diets rated higher and I did not find the food as appealing nor as easy as the Jenny Craig plan. I also like having the councelor there for me to be accountable to every week and to give me advise. Even if you know what to do, it is good to have someone to talk it over with. It is a good thing that we have choices and mine is JENNY.

I have been a Jenny Craig client for almost four years. I did lose my weight and am maintaining. The food is expensive, and some is good, some bad, but my main complaint with them is when they arbitrarily discontinue food that everyone likes and they never look back. I had been eating their fruit and granola cereal for almost all of my four years with them. I love it, people at my center loved it; and all of a sudden they discontinued it forever. They have also made some portions smaller than they were and apparently expected us not to see it. Case in point their pastry twists for desserts. They cut the amount in the pastry and then left it in the same box and bag. Anyone can see that they are now too small for their wrapping! If they don't listen to their clients instead of trying to find more ways to cut things and make more money....they may well be losing their clients altogether.
