Avatar f tn What happened ? Did it finally stop and what diet did u end up doing? I'm having the same problem wih Jenny Craig and want to see if I should stick with it or change and to what. It's so comfortable and the food is so good and I'm loosing weight- I'm most sure it's worth making changes but think I must!
Avatar m tn When I went in the first week to weigh in at Jenny Craig i lost 1/2lb. Second week lost nothing. Third week lost 2lbs. I did Jenny Craig 9 years ago and had no issues losing weight in fact I was losing approx 2lbs per week and lost 40lb in 6months.
Avatar f tn I have been on Jenny Craig for four months and got down to 142 pounds, but it came back on. I currently am eating 1200 calories a day and do physical activity every day faithfully. My goal weight is 130-135, but I can never get passed 142. It seems the more I exercise, the more I gain. I know muscle weighs more than fat, but there's no way I've gained that much muscle. I just want this weight to go away. I need help.
302315 tn?1219182107 I had success some time ago with Jenny Craig, but since getting ill I have not been up to going in to their office. What are you considering trying?
Avatar f tn We all react to medication differently, but I've seldom, if ever, heard that benzodiazapines cause weight gain. Antidepressants are another story. But, if your experience was that you gained weight while on a benzo, you will need to explore your options with your doctor. I don't think you should be looking for a psychotropic medication to help you lose weight. That could be an unhealthy and possibly dangerous expectation.
Avatar m tn Water aroebics works wonders. I've recently been diagnosed with osteoarthritis of knee. Except I'm 42 for crying out loud! I highly suspect it's related to my taking Prevacid for 5 years (the reason I'm here). Anywho, the water aroebics and palates are very easy on your knees. Look up the pilates website and order the ring and video tapes. I joined 24 hour fitness for the water aroebics. It's worked wonders for me and I'm not a small woman myself.
Avatar f tn is a little more flexible but also seems to be very effective. For some people the defined meal plan type diet, such as Jenny Craig, works well - you buy their food and don't eat anything else, and that way you don't eat too many calories.
Avatar n tn and at 200lbs/90kgs was told to by Jenny Craig have about 1455 calories until I got down to 80kg/175 lbs and then proceed to 1200. So if you're somewhere between that range of 80-90kgs then maybe try adding an extra (low calorie) snack into your day to see if it helps. Also it's a good idea to spread out your diet, so if you haven't been doing it already, aim for 4-5 "meals" instead of 3 larger meals spaced out very far during the day.
Avatar n tn They also usually require you to do 6 months of watched diet (Weight Watchers, Jenny Craig, seeing a dietician once a month). You also need to meet certain criteria for the surgery, such as a BMI number and comorbidities.
Avatar n tn After I maintained my thyroid I still had to shed that extra baby fat! I did everything from diet supplements,running and Jenny Craig. I finally lost thirty pounds and did it with just watching a few things. The first most important thing is to look at the fat content. Usually people thinking that counting calories is the only way to lose weight. What they don't realize is that fat has a major factor. Also eating plenty of good fats help burn bad fat.
910435 tn?1296748610 Very high intake of any excitotoxin can lead to abnormal learning, addictive behaviors, behavioral and emotional issues and even affect the endocrine systems in children.

1008841 tn?1293598960 How do I find out what kind of diet I should be on, with my varices and Hep C and cirrhosis? also what herbs are safe to take or cook with?
Avatar f tn Well, summer’s almost over, still can’t fit into my bikinis which is really a total drag, still want to do something about it but I’ve tried Jenny Craig and here I am, overweight again, can stand to lose 20 lbs. A friend and I were going to do Nutrisystem, ads make it look really good, she ordered a lot of food first and bad surprise!! It’s totally rank, the cardboard probably tastes better, looks so tasty on the website, big lie.
414018 tn?1268611672 I gained a lot of weight during my chemo due to the steroids even though I pushed myself to walk daily. As soon as the course was done, I joined Jenny Craig and lost all of it (25 lb.) within 6 months. Now, I'm battling lymphedema in my left leg and am having trouble maintaining my weight again. If it's not one thing, it's another! Good luck!
Avatar m tn LOL...I agree! However, since I've started tx, the smell of fried food nauseates me...LOL...Way better than Jenny Craig dieting! The Riba diet!
898944 tn?1242135039 Actually, if you DRINK enough water and go back to exercising *no less than* 3 to 4 times a week for 1.5 hours, you would probably lose weight - AND THAT'S FREE ! You don't really need to exercise for 1.5 hours every time you exercise. I was just trying to point out that you probably lost that 35 pounds before MORE because of YOUR EFFORT (YAY, YOU !) than because of the water pill (can be VERY dangerous !) OR the B12 shot.
Avatar m tn Okay so I'm 16 turning 17 in 4 months. I'm a girl, 5.7" 185 pounds. I carry almost all of my weight in my thighs.

Avatar m tn i started my weight loss program last month and i have lost 22 pounds so far. the medications i am taking is phentermine 37.5 and triamterene 37.5. i have tried so many expensive programs like jenny craig and weight watchers. don't get me wrong i lost weight but never this fast and easy. my doctor also suggested an injection absorbs fat in your midsection. i am really excited about my weight loss.
Avatar m tn Craig had his first day of PT today. His therapist is actually a physiatrist who owns the PT center. He said that Craig only has about 20 percent of his leg function remaining, and he will be unable to walk soon if he and "Craig's wife" don't intervene and do something about it. Craig explained that he has gone to several neurologists and has no diagnosis yet. So the physiatrist did an assessment and said that the backs of Craig's legs have alot of spasticity.
Avatar f tn I just started weight watchers (again!) after 10 weeks on Jenny Craig...I am into the mini carmel rice cakes - 7 equal 1 pt!!! Sweet!
Avatar n tn get on a low/no sugar (milk is high in sugar), low carb diet. Start losing weight with diet and moderate exercise. You doctor probably wants to treat the diverticulitis first before your diabetes. There may may be a conflict with diverticulitis vs diabetic medications so its best to discuss this your doctor.
178345 tn?1242536246 I cant go off Weight watchers for 1 minute..that first bite...makes you crazy...I was on Jenny Craig for a while now just started Weight Watchers and having a hard time..I got so used to JC since evrything was measured and organized for me...I still have 40 lbs to lose...BUT I am starting from scratch again ....today is a new day..I am not giving in to temptation....I have come to far....
Avatar f tn The loss-gain equation is entirely mechanical and mathematical and I don't care WHAT Jenny Craig says. If the amount of energy going IN is MORE than the amount expended -you gain; if the amount going in is LESS than that expended, you lose. Period. Does Celexa cause your burn rate to slow down? Maybe.
Avatar f tn Okay thanks everyone its helpful knowing that this isnt something crazy lol yea I only lost 10 pounds kinda like beimg pregnant is the new jenny craig lol
