I too joined the Jenny Craig program in June 07 and lost 30 lbs. However I cannot afford the food and when I went back to my counselor. Well, she informed me that I would stop being successful losing the weight because I was not buying exclusively their food. What a crock of crap I am still losing the weight w/o their food now w/o their counselors. Buyer beware!!!!

I just want to know why Jenny Craig will take a significant sum of money from me, and then when I cancel in the proper time frame that the law of Iowa allows..it will take 30 to 45 days for me to get a refund? Also they will take 20 dollars from my refund. Iowa law states that I have 3 days for a FULL refund of my money. What is going on? I really am displeased and am going to warn all that I know to stay clear of Jenny Craig. Patty

I joined Jenny Craig at the Seattle Northgate location, and spoke with Sophia, the Mgr. I told Sophia that I was concerned that the food would not be quite right for me because I needed to monitor severe hypoglycemia (a prediabetic conditiion). I was uncomfortable joining a program that did not provide nutrition information (amount of salt, amount of fat, amount of sugar, or refined carbohydrates, which I have to monitor. She insisted that the program would work. I left with a weeks worth of food, but when I got home and read the lables, I realized, and my doctor agreed, that it would not be the right program for me, the food is high is sugar, high in salt, and refined carbohydrates. My doctor decided that I should work with a Registered Dietician instead. I join on June 10, 2007, on June 12, 2007, I returned to Sophia and asked for my money back, minus the food, which was not returnable. I told her my doctor had decided that I should work with a Registered Dietician instead, and mentioned that the food is food of ingredients that I have to avoid. She said she would refund me my money, minus the food, which she could not take back. I said okay, just refund me for what I can be refunded. Today is July 27, 2007, and I have yet to receive a credit to my credit card. NO REFUND YET. When I called the Center to talk with Sophia (on June 25,2007), she was not available, but I was told by the attendee that Corporate Headquarters is very slow about giving people their refunds. I asked that she have Sophia call me about what happened to my refund and I have yet to get a call back from Sophia (who is the Mgr at the location), regarding my refund. Petra
