Now, enough of that boring stuff! Here is a bit of Jenny Craig 'Food Porn' (as I like to call photographs of delicious looking food which makes your mouth water...) just so you can see what some of the meals look like.
This is a bowl of yummy raisin and hazelnut muesli. I put half a cup of semi-skimmed milk in and a handful of grapes cut in half. Nom.
These are three of the delicious lunches which I've been sent. A Mediterranean tuna-pasta salad, carrot and coriander soup with a bit too much half fat cheddar cheese (sorry Jenny!) and a couple of crackers and finally, a mashed potato pot complete with rosemary and croutons... plus a random carrot on the side haha. I'm kind of addicted to these mash pots.
Now here we have three mouth-watering dinners. First up, we have a chicken curry with rice, creamy mushroom stroganoff with some added chicken and a naughty splodge of ketchup on the side, and finally my favorite, a dish of chicken chasseur with some gherkins. You can tell I like mixing random foods together. Nomnomnom.
Also, can I just say I know these dinner photos are very chicken-heavy but I promise that's just a coincidence. I've also had beef and lamb dindins so far also, just forgot to photograph them!
So, the question everyone wants the answer to... Does the Jenny Craig diet work? My answer? YES. I've been on it for just a week and have cheated a little bit here and there and I've managed to lose a pound. Now, I know that's not a huge weight loss. However, the Jenny Craig diet is not supposed to be a quick fix diet where stones drop off you in seconds only to be packed right back on (and then some) the day you come back off it. Jenny Craig is about making healthy lifestyle choices and most importantly LEARNING about the way food works and how it affects your body. This means that the weight will come off in healthy, gradual amounts and when you begin to phase yourself back into regular eating (if you even want to after feasting on such yummy dishes...) you will be educated enough to know how to keep that weight off. This is why I love the Jenny Craig diet.
Now, let me tell you something exciting. A bit of an 'insider tip'... Starting tomorrow, Jenny Craig are offering two weeks of their diet at half price which averages out at just £5.50 per day for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks every day. So for those of you who want to try out the diet which allows you to get diet food delivered to your door for a similar price to that which most people spend on their usual weekly shop which doesn't include supportive consultants calling one to two times a week, a folder telling you everything you need to know about food and how to work with it and a community of people in the same position as you are. So what are you waiting for? Now is the time to sign up for Jenny Craig!
So what do you reckon, fab discount right? What are your reasons for considering the Jenny Craig diet? What are your current eating habits?

Ooo the food looks fab!! And I can't believe how cheap it is too! I've always wondered about these kind of diet services where they provide the food for you, but it seems like they actually work! I started a diet yesterday (just low cal, more exercise) and aiming to lose around 1lb a week too! :) Hope the Jenny Craig diet works out for you :) xxx
ReplyDeleteIt really is lush. Like, really quite rich food considering it is supposed to be a diet it totally doesn't feel like you're sacrificing things! Oooh wow, which diet is that? I did a really good one last year which I kind of invented myself and was losing 2-3 pounds a week but it isn't as easy to do that one anymore as I'm living with my parents again now!
DeleteI'm hoping to lose about half a stone, so we'll see :) Thanks for words of encouragement, and consider giving Jenny a go... at 50% off its a super-duper bargain!

Amazing!
ReplyDeleteI've ALWAYS wanted to try Jenny Craig but i've always found them too expensive :(
It can work out as a little pricier than other diets can be, but eating healthy in general is quite expensive, that's why all year last year I was just eating frozen pizzas and takeaways, because they're so cheap. I'm a student so if I wasn't sent the Jenny Craig products at full price I may be wary. However, with the 50% discount for two weeks worth of food I think it's definitely worth giving it a try, if only to learn about nutrition and then you can make your own rules after the 50% off has run out if you really can no longer afford it... Give it some thought, I can only recommend it :)
DeleteLet me know what you decide

ReplyDeleteThank you! It really is the easiest diet I've ever been on and that's saying something because I've done A LOT of diets lol. My name's GabriellaSofia and I'm a yoyo-fad-dieter haha. The food is really yummy and I haven't been hungry once. Plus, they even have little chocolate snack bars to keep my cravings at bay gobblegobblegobble. I would recommend it to anyone especially as there is 50% off from tomorrow.
