Some of you have been asking me "What's up with the Jenny Craig ads? You said you don't like their program, and now you're supporting them. Huh?"
I just noticed the ads today, and have asked my blog advertising network to take them down. I didn't realize Jenny Craig ads were coming into the inventory so that's my bad for not staying on top of that.
You are correct, I'm not a fan of paid weight loss programs that rely on you eating their packaged foods in order to reach your goal. I'm okay with Weight Watchers because they at least teach you ways to eat in the real world, their WW branded food is not mandatory for success, and they have the support groups which I think is very important when working on achieving your health goals.
In my eyes, Jenny Craig is a short term solution which requires you to rely on their packaged foods for success, and for some people that's okay. I'm more for programs that will teach you life long and long term solutions eating every day healthy foods in the real world, creating support systems, and exercise.
One of the core reasons I started Noshtopia was to start teaching people about wellness through food, and to give up "diet" foods and diet mentality. If you clean up your eating, learn portion control, and learn the emotional reasons behind your eating habits, good health is available to you which includes a slimmer healthy figure.
