Ready, Set, Results! Jenny Craig Hosts Nationwide Weight Loss Event Sept. 1-21

CARLSBAD, Calif., Aug. 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Jenny Craig, a proven solution to weight loss and a leader in the weight loss and weight management industry, announced today that participating Jenny Craig centers will take part in a nationwide weight loss event "Ready, Set, Results!" September 1-21, offering prospective members the opportunity to get on track with their health and weight loss goals. Jenny Craig centers coast-to-coast will be opening their doors with special offers including 50 percent off of the enrollment fee for their best program, as well as $50 in savings certificates on Jenny Craig food*. In addition, Jenny Craig will be launching a national advertising campaign in support of the event showcasing the personal consultant offering along with great food.

"With summer coming to a close and fall schedules resuming, now is the ideal moment for people to take some 'me time' and focus on their personal health and weight loss goals. In fact, a recent survey conducted online by Harris Poll** found that nearly seven in ten (67%) women responded they would like more 'me time' in a given week for their personal interests and hobbies. The Jenny Craig weight loss event is the ideal way to make that time," said Mike Raymond, chief marketing officer at Jenny Craig. "We encourage people to visit a Jenny Craig in their area to see how working with a consultant and having a simple plan with delicious food can help achieve weight loss and health goals now and into the holidays."

During "Ready, Set, Results!" Jenny Craig centers will be offering free health assessments, samples of Jenny Craig snacks and will host raffles and giveaways. Prospective members will have the opportunity to gain additional insight into the Jenny Craig program and its nutritionally-balanced menus, as well as speak with consultants about their process for working with members to identify strengths, challenges and personal goals in order to create customized plans that fit individual needs.

About Jenny Craig

The Jenny Craig program is designed to provide structure and support to help members lose weight and learn how to keep it off. Jenny Craig's program provides nutritionally-balanced menus, which include over 80 delicious entrees, desserts and snacks developed by dietitians, nutritionists, and food technologists. One-on-one consultations provide personal support and education on portion control and strategies such as the Volumetrics® approach, which helps with satiety. Jenny Craig consultants work with each member to identify their strengths, challenges and personal goals in order to create unique weekly meal and activity plans that fit individual needs and budgets. Consultants also help members implement behavioral strategies to support their success. Jenny Craig's comprehensive approach to weight loss is available to members either in person in centers or by phone with Jenny Anywhere. The program is backed by hard science as demonstrated by a 2010 independent two-year clinical trial published in the Journal of the American Medical Association showing that participants on the Jenny Craig program lost three times more weight than dieting on their own. Jenny Craig, based in Carlsbad, CA, is one of the world's largest weight management companies, with more than 600 company-owned and franchised centers in the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Puerto Rico.
