THIS REVIEW COVERS THE BASICS OF THE JENNY CRAIG DIET.

I TRIED THE JENNY CRAIG DIET FOR 6 MONTHS AND LOST 53 POUNDS. FOR ME IT WAS THE ANSWER BUT ITS NOT FOR EVERYBODY. THE JENNY CRAIG DIET IS NOT AN ECONOMICAL DIET. THERE IS MEMBERSHIP FEES AND THE COST OF FOOD. BUT, FOR ME THAT WAS FINE BECAUSE I FELT MY HEALTH WAS WORTH IT. IN FACT, I WOULD SAY THE COST FACTOR ACTUALLY MOTIVATED ME MORE BECAUSE IT MADE ME MORE SERIOUS. YEAH, IT SOUNDS CRAZY BUT I ACTUALLY FELT LIKE I COULDN'T THROW AWAY ALL THIS MONEY I HAD INVESTED. TODAY I CAN SAY THAT JENNY WORKS AND THE COST WHEN MEASURED AGAINST HEALTH CARE COST AND COMPARED TO ALL THE MONEY I SPENT ON THE WRONG FOODS I WAS REALLY SAVING MYSELF AND MY MONEY. PLUS, JC TASTE BETTER THAN ANY DIET PILL!
