I'm excited on starting my new journey. With work and age, I haven't taken as good care of myself as I should. I was in a very bad accident 5 years ago which has left me with a lot of pain, so high impact workouts are a no go. I'm hoping that eating a more balanced, healthier diet will help me lose some weight where I can do a little more physically without as much pain. It's been hard to do so on my own as I work a lot of hours and have to commute to work and home. It's so much easier to order food or pick up take out than to have to come home and cook for myself.

Priceless...As a person who has tried to lose over the years - JC is priceless. I could say I save money on alcohol and eating out - but the real thing is my life is better. I would rather drive less of a car then not be able to get JC meals. Just my two cents.2 points

HI - I have never had gastric surgery, but Jenny Craig teaches portion control which I think is the key to maintaining. WIth the surgery you may need to divide your meals out into two smaller meals. The program also pairs you with a JC Consultant as you know - which can help you have an amazing support system. I continue to rely on my JC Consultant to help support me through every day stress and staying on my plan. One of the best features of the plan - is that the meals are all ready and available to you. Takes the cooking and thinking out of it. Good luck!! And come join us in2 points

Looking to get back on Jenny Craig and the Ramen Noodle Bowl with Chicken & Veggies looks appealing except for the edamame. My experience with all frozen dinners (not just Jenny Craig's) is that if they show edamame in the photo on the package, then there are twice as much edamame in the actual dish. I feel about edamame, the way I feel about lima beans - they taste like wax. Why don't you have dishes that have spinach or even broccoli in them? What's this obsession in the frozen dinner industry with edamame these days?2 points

Just can't wait to try the new dinners. They look fabulous. One of my favorites is the pumpkin loaf. Looking forward to a crisp fall morning and having my coffee and pumpkin loaf on my back deck. Love my Jenny food.2 points

Just an FYI, to keep celery for an ridiculous amount of time wrap in tin foil. I have had celery that lasted well over a month!2 points

I see the real you in your after photo. Congratulations. I joined JC in 2008. Lost 60 lbs in about 18 months and have kept it off. I've had different, wonderful consultants over the years and I, too, even on maintenance, have needed them for success. I look forward to her monthly call. I'll be 65 this year and my motivation for keeping the weight off is that I don't want to take away the gift I gave to myself--to become my natural weight. I didn't really know what that was as I battled excess weight all my life. Good job taking the weight off while you are young and can enjoy your ne2 points

I am on vacation this week in another state. I was anxious about my food control. After conferring with my councilor I managed to have food delivered to my temporary address within the hour. I am beyond thrilled with the program!1 point

Hi Mary, Thank you for your comment! Carbs are a healthy part of a balanced diet – you need them for energy!

The meal plans are created by registered dietitians and follow most expert guidelines so you can be sure you are getting a healthy balance of carbs, proteins and fats. Let us know if you have any other questions - we know you'll reach your weight loss goals if you stick to the plan!1 point

I would add Make Your Bed - it gives you one thing you have done right - and sets the tone for the day.1 point

Thank you for your comment. While we do not advise eating large quantities of corn syrup or sugar in general, it’s perfectly safe to eat. When consumed in small amounts, it can be part of a well-balanced diet such as Jenny Craig.1 point

What genes are specifically being tested? I got my results back but it didn’t say in the analysis. I’d like to know as I have a background in genomics and obesity so I can actually understand a fair amount without needing to have a genetic counselor go over every detail with me! Thanks.1 point

The new entrees look interesting. I still miss the 3 Cheese Ziti. It was a classic pasta and tomato sauce entree that I really enjoyed. It was also a dinner that one could add a veggie to and it was almost a one dish dinner. The new Pecan Chicken entree looks like it might be too sweet for me, but I'll try it. I'm not a fan of the Squash Ravioli. I'm one that likes more basic entrees that can be doctored up to one's personal taste.1 point

Thank you for that. I have struggled with 10 pounds here and there back and forth many times and never had the courage to go to Jenny Craig. I didn't want to be laughed at. I have known people that want to lose 50+ lbs that have mocked me because I'm stressing over those 10 lbs. I love nice clothes and 10 lbs means looking nice in them or not. It is incredibly hard to drop 10 lbs when that is all you need to take off. Those 10 lbs are on there like concrete. I have tried everything from literally starvation to eating nothing but veggies and salad for weeks and none of it works. I finally1 point

Just started today on Cinco De Mayo. Looking forward to this journey. I have a long way to go but feel hopeful and encouraged today. This plan will take a lot of stress off of me. One less thing to worry about with all of the menu's done for me. Really excited! Kim R.1 point

Hi, The easiest ways to measure solid foods is with a food scale. You don't have to get anything fancy, just a basic food scale will tell you how many ounces a food like meat, chicken, fish, etc is. You can weigh it after it is cooked since some water cooks out.1 point

Hi @Gerri Pruchnicki, The Soup Additions are 'extras' if you want them, you do not have to have one each day. They can be enjoyed as an appetizer or a tasty snack in between meals if you are hungry. Each Soup Addition is 70 calories and counts as 2 Limited Free Foods and 1 Vegetable. Ask your consultant to add some to your next order so you can try them. Best Wishes!1 point

I am very excited about being on Jenny Craig. Like a lot of others I've tried everything out there. I even tried Jenny before, ten years ago. I have a whole new outlook on life now as my weight has caused quite a few health issues for me. I am ready now, for the first time, truly ready. I am able to accept that the journey to get to this weight wasn't overnight and neither will it be to lose this weight. This is my third week on Jenny and I am doing well, the food is great and the support of my consultant is great. She is awesome. I have a long journey ahead of me and I am looking forward to i1 point

Hi @AllisonFMiller, Welcome to the community! You can find most of this information in the Getting Started Guide which you should have received during your first consultation or in your first shipment. If you did not get one, please ask your consultant for one right away. The Grocery List which is in the back of the guide (on pages 38-47) lists each food group and the choices/serving sizes. In case you do not have this guide yet, you can see the Grocery List here. You can find examples of Fruits and Healthy Fats there. An example of a healthy fat is 6 almonds. You do not1 point
