    I was on Jenny last spring (lost 40lbs!) and rejoined this past Monday. I forgot how much I actually missed some of the foods and how convenient the plan can be.

    This is my 3rd week on Jenny Craig. I have lost 5 lbs so far. I am a working mother of 2 small children and the convenience is a godsend. I love it so far!

    Hello!
    I am in my second week of Jenny Craig! Lost four pounds the first week! I am 36 yo with 6 kids ages 9 to 2. So, I am a huge fan of not having to prepare or think about eating to lose weight....very easy and convenient! I was so used to skipping meals until dinner and then overeating!
    I didn't do so hot this week though....crashed at BBW! I am hoping to still come in okay for my weigh in on Thursday though! Trying to get back on track!

    Hi!
    Im doing the jenny craig diet. I hate eating breakfast. It ruins my morning coffee, but I think a key to lose the pounds is to activate my metabolism. I used to wake up, drink my cups of coffee and not feel the hunger until 2pm. Then eat, eat, and eat until bedtime. The schedule proportional foods are helping me learn how to feed myself.
    Every week I do eat out, and I joyfully accept my mothers food when I visit. First times I over eat. The guilt I have not meet yet. I still have a lot of mental and exactitude development towards eating to work with.
    I dont like doing the physical activity, I was 245 lbs for the last 2 years. Four weeks of diet and Im 230 lbs.

    Hi All!
    Just started Jenny Craig about 3 weeks ago and have lost 6lbs so far. I think I'm the only person i know in my friends and family that has ever tried it..so I feel a little isolated doing this diet. I'm glad there are others out here trying it out as well. For the most part the food is pretty decent (except for there breakfast mini loafs).

    Currently, I'm on there jenny set go plan..but I think I have to decide by next week whether I want to continue. It sounds like there next plan is pretty expensive though compared to there advertisemens of a $1 per lb. Which programs are you ladies and gentlemen on? Do you think its been pretty beneficial so far?

    Going today for a consultation....very curious to see how much it costs. I see they use the Body Media Fit in some of their programs...intrigued.

    I'm finishing week 3 tomorrow and couldn't be happier with my results. I lost about 5.5 lbs on my own before starting Jenny. in the first two weeks I dropped about 6 lbs. Though the food isn't cheap, once I factored in how much I was spending going out to eat anyway, I think it actually saves me money! I've been mostly happy with the foods. A few duds here and there but mostly good. If anyone wants to add me, feel free! Best of luck to you all and keep up the good work! :)

    That is awesome! Congrats! Did you follow a workout plan as well? Or what did you do for exercise?

    I'm on jenny, and as PP said, Jenny isn't cheap, however, I am fortunate to have a job and a little spending cash (crossing fingers because things at work are CRAZY) and I have been able to budget this for six weeks. I know I need six weeks to get my mindset fixed.

    I have been on jenny craig for 3 years about. Lost about 40 lbs. Still eating the food because it is convenient and I like a lot of the meals. I simply love the sunshine sandwiches. I still go and see the counselor. That is the one thing that makes JC work, especially for me, is meeting with the counselor every week to keep you honest and force you to see your work. It was my last resort to weight lost and it pulled me through. I know a lot about nutrition as a health care professional and could whip up my own diet plan in a few minutes, but that is not what I needed. I needed a person to travel with me on that path saying 'great' for the good weeks and 'the past is gone and the future starts now' when it is not a good week. Expensive yes, but for those of us who know better but can't stick to the diet, it is the best package of food, counseling, exercise, and behavior modification.
