Would you like to know the cost of Jenny Craig diet? Click below

By Jessica A. Andersen

The cost of the Jenny Craig diet depends on the type of plan you select. There are short-term plans and long-term plans. Jenny Craig advertises an interesting statistic, they say that their participants spend only one dollar more per day than the average American does on food.

On September 28, 2008, I spoke to a Jenny Craig representative named Barbara. Barbara informed me about the options available to Jenny Craig program and she described the costs. First time we talk about is known as a 20 pounds for $20 program. This is a 10 week program and $20 includes meeting expenses for the weight loss professional but does not include meal costs.

The meals cost between $12 and $18 everyday. For this price you get three meals, dessert, vitamin bars, and snacks. The meals themselves are frozen entres developed by Jenny Craig after years of trial and error. A majority people find them tasty, satisfying, and sizable. If at the end of 10 weeks you haven't reached your weight loss goal you can sign up for additional meal plans but you will be paying additional costs.

The second option that was described to me by Barbara is known as the rewards plan. This plan cost $359 per year in addition to your meal costs. This program also includes weekly meetings with a weight loss professional. The rewards part of the plan comes in the form of a discount on meals. During the first 10 weeks you will receive a 10% discount on meals, in the next 10 weeks you will receive a 20% discount on food, and during the remaining time you will receive a 35% discount on all meals.

According to Jenny Craig representative that I spoke with, the savings you'll realize through these discounts more than make up for the $359 sign up costs. As you can see you will be spending some money, but the program is comparable to your everyday food costs and the statistic quoted by Jenny Craig that you'll only be spending one dollar more per day on food seems reasonable.
