Jenny Craig calls its Jenny Craig diet the most effective weight management system in the world. The diet uses a well known formula – eat less, exercise more. Any health expert would agree. More than a fad diet, the Jenny Craig diet is designed to be a life long healthy eating system.

Celebrity spokespeople have long been a staple of the Jenny Craig diet. One of these was a famous actress who had appeared in Cheers and various Star Trek movies – Kristie Alley. People were amazed at how fat Kristie had become when she first appeared as the spokesperson in 2005. Her work for Jenny Craig came after she had ballooned to over 200 pounds, and appeared in a comedy documentary called Fat Actress. As of November of 2006 she claimed to have lost 75 pounds in the Jenny Craig diet. A number of people questioned whether Kristie really lost weight while on the diet.

There is also personal counseling as part of the Jenny Craig diet. Jenny Craig trains the counselors who have no outside certifications as nutritionists or health professionals. Here's how the Jenny Craig diet works. People who join start out with diet plans based on prepackaged foods. The selection is large – over 75 frozen and dry foods to which people add things like store bought vegetables and dairy. Later in the diet, clients can create their own menus selected from a set of Jenny Craig foods. Then there comes a time when more than half the food eaten is store bought, rather than purchased from Jenny Craig.
