If you feel that you can’t control your weight on your own and need help/guidance, there are a number of weight control services to assist you. Some of the most famous are Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, and WebMD.

These weight control services provide a copious amount of information regarding weight loss procedures, drugs, and diet programs. They also give guidance and advice for people who are starting from square one.

Let’s take a look at the three weight control services I mentioned:

Jenny Craig

This is one of the most popular weight control services available. Their goal is to provide a personalized meal plan with strong support from their customer service centers. They have centers set up throughout the country. If you’d like, you can visit one and interact with people who are dealing with weight issues. Jenny Craig also markets it’s own ready-to-make meals. They are a convenient and easy way to stay on your health plan. But the meals can be rather expensive, depending on how many and where you buy them. Jenny Craig also has 24/7 phone support.

Weight Watchers

This is another super-popular weight control service. They used to be a lot like Jenny Craig(and still are in some ways), but they’ve now developed a “point system”. You take a personal weight analysis, and with that information, they will develop a meal plan for you using these points. Basically, you have to stay at, or below, the amount of points you are allowed to eat in a day. For example, a piece of almond spice cake would be around five points. They also have easy to make recipes that anyone can make in the comfort of their homes. Like Jenny Craig, their weight control services are available 24/7 through phone.

WebMB

This is the newest weight control service on the market. Everything is done through the internet, so it’s extremely convenient for people with busy lives. The cost is five dollars a week for their weight control services. Once you sign up, you will be required to fill out an in-depth eating habit evaluation form. They will then use your answers to prepare you a personalized nutritional analysis report. You will be able to look at this and see where you need dietary improvement. Based on your preferences, they will prescribe your own eating plan. Once you have your plan, you can track your progress and what you eat each day with their interactive journal. They will give you weekly feedback on how you’re doing. If you have any questions, the weight control services are available 24/7 by phone or e-mail.
