Jenny Craig has helped me lose weight. I like their food. It provides portion control and is tasty.Negatives: Very expensive. When they give you a receipt, they do not tell you how much each item is. I believe this is less than transparent.I dont know about other Jenny Craig centers but this one has spammed me to death. I order food, pick it up...and for the next 5 days, get 2 calls and a text asking me to order more food. Duh, I have your phone number! When I want more I will call you!So again, the program is good if you can afford to overpay for frozen meals. But this particular center really blew it with me this time around. Ive lost 12 pounds and dont need to lose anymore.Be very clear in dealing with them what your communication preferences are.

They have helped me to lose the weight I need, When I need it!!

I have had only good experiences here. Shannon is lovely! I met my goal weight but maintenance is tough so I keep going back for motivation. Not cheap but food is really good and taught me portion control.

I walked into the center today after not having been there since September. I wasnt interested in meeting with anyone or getting weighed. I just wanted to pick up two weeks worth of food. When I walked in i was told the program had changed and they needed me to fill out information with questions like what is motivating you and what is your biggest challenge. I was frustrated because all I wanted to do was pick up my food. II was then asked to go to the back and get weighed. Again, I was frustrated because I already mentioned I didnt want to get weighed. I just wanted to pick up food. The person at the front desk explained to me that the program had changed and that they only offer prefixed menus now and that I was only allowed to substitute 3 of the meals if there was something on it I didnt like. I couldnt believe it. I would basically be paying for food that I didnt necessarily like and would have to eat food Choices I didnt like. How could you expect someone to be successful when they are forced to eat food they dont like.! Since when does dieting mean zero flexibility? I was told that people were not losing weight on the program so they were going back to the way they used to be years ago. I have a hard time believing that. I have many friends who have lost on JC and were successful. And if flexibility is such an issue than how come WW is so successful? Its the most flexible plan I know. Its a shame because I was prepared to spend d $250 to $300 worth of food today but instead walked having spent only $150 and I will now not return. I wonder how many more clients they will lose with such a regimented program.
