Maureen Callahan, MS, RD reviews the Jenny Craig Diet an writes, Plans start at 1,200 calories — probably a little lower than many health experts might recommend, but it should be enough to provide dieters with the nutrients they need. (If possible, opt for 1,500 calories. If you exercise, this is more realistic.) A good thing: The complete program encompasses exercise advice and behavior training.
Anne Collins reviews the Jenny Craig Diet and vrites about Menu Plans, and writes, All menu plans that are nutritionally balanced according to the recommendations of the USDA Food Guide Pyramid and U.S. Dietary Guidelines. Clients can choose from more than 70 food products… The Jenny Craig Program is based on the consumption of pre-packaged meals. This is very convenient to begin with but this close dietary supervision can cause problems once the diet ends. The dieter may not be ready to “go it alone.” To put it another way, short-term weight loss goals take priority over the need to learn new eating habits.
Northwestern University reviews the Jenny Craig Diet Program and writes, Since 90% of Jenny Craig’s clientele is female, overweight men may feel uncomfortable participating in this program… Clients are required to have a 15-minute personal in-person or phone consultation weekly with Jenny Craig (who lack formal nutrition/behavior training) to help clients meet their weight loss goals. A variety of online pharm support group tools such as BMI calculator, interactive journal, menu planner, weight tracker, chat room and e-newsletters are available to strengthen clients motivation to achieve desired weight loss goals.
CompareDiets.org reviews the Jenny Craig Diet Program and writes about alternatives, There are alternatives to consider as well. If you’re looking for a cheaper Jenny Craig-style diet program, you can participate in the eDiets version of Jenny Craig which takes advantage of cheap frozen food items you can locate at your local grocery store. This version of Jenny Craig is available at lower cost than the real thing and pretty much just as effective. You won’t benefit from the personalized one-on-one counseling that the traditional Jenny Craig plan offers, but then you won’t have to do any of the dreaded weigh-ins.
