I was provided a free trial Jenny Craig program and meals. However, the opinions expressed are entirely my own.
I have finished my 8 week Jenny Craig journey! It has definitely been a huge learning experience, and I have learned things both about Jenny Craig and lessons I can use after the program.
First, let me tell you about my last visit. Unfortunately I didn’t have my regular consultant because she got married the weekend before (congratulations, Amber!) but Amy was just as great. I had worked really hard by going to the gym 3 times that week and only had one unexpected dine out. So I was expecting a great loss. Unfortunately I was at the same weight as the week before. So that was a little disappointing, but Amy was great about not letting me get down on myself.
Since it was my 8th week, we took measurements. Guess how many inches I’ve lost in 8 weeks? 12 total inches! That is a huge deal. And I can tell the difference – my pants aren’t fitting as tightly around my waist, and my shirts don’t seem to be quite as tight. So even though I didn’t lose any weight, I am losing inches. {*Results not typical. Members following our program can expect to lose, on average 1-2 lbs per week. I received promotional consideration.}
I want to share some of the things I have learned while on Jenny Craig – both about the program and lessons I’m now using that I’m no longer on the program.
- Jenny Craig’s food is absolutely delicious! I was really worried that the food wouldn’t be the best and I wouldn’t enjoy it at all. The opposite is true. Besides the fat free ranch dressing, I loved everything else? My top favorite foods were the Turkey & Wild Rice, Loaded Baked Potato, and the Homestyle Pot Roast.
- Breakfast is so important. I have never been a huge breakfast eater. But of course I had to eat it every morning with Jenny Craig. I definitely notice that my body is more ready for the day after eating breakfast now.
- Do not get down on yourself if the scale doesn’t move as fast as you want. Your body is taking time to adjust, especially if you are also exercising.
- Even if the scale doesn’t show a lot of progress, you are more than likely losing inches. I thought that since I hadn’t lost a whole lot, I wasn’t gaining anything. But losing 12 inches is most definitely a difference.
- When you have to dine out, proportions are so important. They give you a great sheet to help you with those dineouts that gives you suggestions on what to eat and things to avoid, which helps out a lot. I know this is going to help me out even after the program.
I know I wasn’t perfect on my Jenny Craig journey, but it has definitely opened my eyes to the things I wasn’t doing correctly before I joined the program. I am definitely going to be incorporating healthy meals into my family’s lives now, and I will still continue going to the gym. I will also continue to keep you all updated on my weight loss journey.
Jenny Craig has also launched more than a dozen foods for fall! The new foods include: Loaded Baked Potato, Italian Style Pasta Bake, Classic Waffles, Chocolate Peppermint Cake (seasonal), Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich, Pumpkin Loaf (seasonal), Pumpkin Spice Cakes (seasonal), Homestyle Beef Pot Roast, Classic Lasagna with Meat Sauce, Turkey & Wild Rice, Apple Crisp, Chocolate Lava Cake, and the Strawberry Yogurt Anytime Bar. I have tried them all, and they are all extremely tasty! I am sure you will love them, too.
