My sister and I are both struggling to lose weight-- I have much more to lose than she does. We both love healthy food-- and even prefer it-- but our demanding, high stress jobs and schedules make it difficult to do the shopping/cooking required to be effective. Much as I hate to admit it-- at least for now, the best solution is to go the route of one of the prepared meal programs. I am not overly confident that it is a good long term solution as I hate frozen meals in general. But my two biggest issues are eating regularly (I often have just one meal a day-- which is killer to my metabolism) and when I do eat, eating what I can pick up quickly. I am hoping that a prepared meal program will help me get over the hump and back on a regular eating schedule and hopefully in a month or two my schedule will be less insane and allow me to take back control of my diet.
So all that is to say, I know how to eat and how to approach dieting and healthy eating/cooking. I have MANY amazing low calorie, high health recipes. What I am seeking input and experience with right now are these two programs-- nutrisystem and jenny craig. Given how picky I am about food, my first glance reaction is that JC offers the best selection and most interesting options. My sister did nutrisystems a few years ago and said some foods are really good and some are really bad... of course, I assume that is a matter of taste.
Have you done one or the other? Were they effective in jump starting your weight loss? Did you like the food? Was it worth the expense?
