Many new moms will want the help of a weight-loss program to lose post-pregnancy pounds. Jenny Craig is a weight-loss program that is safe for women after pregnancy and those who are breastfeeding. Jenny Craig consultants evaluate each individual's nutritional needs and calorie intake requirements, so you can lose weight safely on the program. A doctor's approval is still important, however. Your doctor will be able to determine if your body is ready for diet and exercise after your pregnancy.
Instructions
Use Jenny Craig After Pregnancy
1. Have your doctor determine whether or not a weight-loss program is safe for you after your pregnancy. If you are breastfeeding, a doctor's approval may be required to start the program and he will need to recommend a vitamin supplement.
2. Call (800) 597-JENNY for a free consultation. Your program director will help you determine a weight-loss plan based on your nutritional needs, desired amount of weight loss, eating style and activity level.
3. Begin the program by eating the provided meals that are tailored to your needs.
4. Exercise moderately, increasing gradually throughout the program by adding strength-training exercises.
5. Participate in weekly meetings with a consultant to monitor your progress. These can be done in person or over the telephone.
6. Halfway through the Jenny Craig program, prepare yourself for planning and making your own meals. You will need to demonstrate to your consultant that you are able to do this.
7. Transition out of the Jenny Craig program once you have reached your goal weight. You will begin to receive fewer Jenny Craig meals and will receive a maintenance menu.
