The best way to find out if the Jenny Craig Program is right for you is to visit a Centre for a free informational consultation. During your visit, a Jenny Craig Program Director will:
- Ask questions to learn what you're looking for in a weight management program
- Help you to identify a healthy weight loss goal
- Provide you with all the Program information you need to make a decision
This consultation is obligation-free. No matter what you decide, you'll leave the Centre feeling even more motivated to take action towards a healthier lifestyle!

Each week, you'll speak with your personal Consultant for a 15-minute, private consultation. He or she will help you monitor your weight loss progress; encourage you to set personal goals to build a healthy relationship with food, lead an active lifestyle and add balance to your life; provide strategies to handle challenging situations such as dining out, traveling and unplanned changes; and also help you select satisfying and convenient weekly menus that fit into your lifestyle.

Centre employees include Consultants, who work with clients weekly as "partners in lifestyle change" to motivate them, assist them with their weekly menu and activity planning, and provide them with personalized strategies to help them on their weight loss journeys. Program Directors give clients free informational consultations and tours of the Centre, and the Centre Director is responsible for all daily Centre operations.
