I was so disappointed with Jenny Craig. I have tried everything- this was my last resort. First of all, it took a lot for me to walk into a building that said "weight loss" really big above it and admit to someone that i have a weight problem. I was really excited to meet a consultant and actually have someone support me and believe in me. Well, I have a slight allergy to hazelnuts (never been proven), my tongue just sort of goes numb, but I still eat them. I wrote that on the form under allergies. So, I sit down in her office and she says tell me about your hazelnut allergy, so I tell her. She says well "I already know what corporate will say, we cannot accept you in the program". I was like 'thats it, even though it is so mild, I really need help". She said "well thanks for coming in". THATS IT. She didn't refer me to any other place or sit and talk to me- she basically just shooed me out the door- I was a wreck after I left that place. I felt like it was my last hope- and I keep having to jump over all these obstacles. To me that was not professional at all and she did not empathize with me at all. I do not recommend Jenny Craig!
I can understand that they have to be careful of lawsuits and what not but they should also be supportive and realize how hard it is for people to go in there.
