Lots of things have changed over the years. I think just wanting to be as healthy as possible is what spurred on the decision and wanting a change of lifestyle.

What Does A Typical Day On Jenny Craig Look Like For You?
A deliciously healthy one! Hehe! It’s a day made up of three main meals including two pieces of fruit and lots and lots of yummy salads and veggies. Depending what kilojoules you’re on and the other snacks you may get, it’s a great day. It fits great into my busy lifestyle and is more than manageable – it’s really ridiculously simple!

The support from the Jenny Craig team has been nothing short of amazing! My coach Angela and the whole extended team have been fantastic! It really makes a difference having that support and knowing you’re not alone. They’re always there if I have any questions about the meals and snacks. On a personal level they also check in as to how I’m feeling and coping and what roadblocks or work commitments I have going on. I find it so easy to talk through anything and everything with the team.

It certainly isn’t a quick fix it’s a lifestyle change. Yes, it can be scary, but what have you got to lose? We only have one body to get us through this life.
