An Inspiring Weight Loss Story
Linda
Campbell (right), 69, wanted a convenient and easy way to lose weight before
taking a family cruise to Alaska and decided to join Jenny Craig. After seeing
the success of her mother losing 9 lbs.* on the program in one month, Pam
Campbell (left), 48, decided to join Jenny Craig herself and the two women
began supporting each other’s goals and sharing their successes.
Two
years ago, Linda lost her husband to a heart attack, and it deeply affected her
daughter Pam as well. After suffering this loss, it became even more important
for Linda to take the necessary steps to reduce her own risk of heart disease.
The women met with their Jenny Craig consultant weekly and learned portion
control and how to make more meals on their own. “It’s a very flexible program.
You learn how to eat out, cook on your own, what to do for emotional eating…I
loved my consultant,” says Pam.
After
losing 22 lbs.* on the program, Linda’s BMI is now in a healthy weight range
and she was able to lower her blood pressure. Pam lost 35 lbs.* and the
experience of losing weight and adopting a healthier lifestyle with her mother
really brought the pair closer together.
Both
Linda and Pam walked on a regular basis, among other activities, as part of
their weight loss journey with Jenny. Studies have shown that three, 10
minute increments of walking, or a 30-minute session, can contribute to
managing a healthier weight. As part of its 30th birthday celebration,
Jenny Craig is encouraging Americans to commit to walking 30 minutes a day. For
