☆ Sima Sistani says its time for WeightWatchers to embrace Ozempic. Will its users agree?
  + stars: | 2023-11-28 | by ( Nicole Goodkind | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +10 min
Sima Sistani, the 44-year-old CEO of WeightWatchers, is aware of this, and she recognized WeightWatchers had to evolve – or else. She also landed a massive deal to buy a telehealth business that can issue virtual prescriptions to patients for these weight loss drugs. Semaglutide was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to treat type 2 diabetes as Ozempic, but it was also used off-label for weight loss. Some longtime users of the program feel betrayed by the pivot away from in-person meetings and toward medication-based solutions. “Sadly, they don’t want to do the work,” she said, of tracking food or exercising to achieve weight loss goals.

A Jenny Craig sign hangs on the wall outside of the weight loss store on April 28, 2023 in Miami, Florida. Adcock said all former Jenny Craig customers have been notified by email and in the brand's Facebook groups about the relaunch. After four decades in business, Jenny Craig, based in Carlsbad, California, filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Delaware on May 5, court records show. He said prices at Jenny Craig would remain similar to what they were before its bankruptcy but declined to share more details. The complaint alleges that hundreds of former Jenny Craig staffers could be owed some restitution.

☆ Jenny Craig is being revived online
  + stars: | 2023-07-05 | by ( Jordan Valinsky | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
New York CNN —Weight loss brand Jenny Craig is getting a second lease on life. Jenny Craig went bust in May after more than 40 years in business because of growing competition from trendy diets and weight loss drugs like Ozempic. One major change is that Jenny Craig’s weight loss centers won’t be reopened, and the company will live entirely online. Jenny Craig was one of the pioneers of weight loss and diet programs. Named after its founder, the Jenny Craig business started when she couldn’t lose weight after giving birth to her second child.

Annick Lenoir-Peek, a lawyer from Durham, N.C., has struggled with her weight since adolescence. She has tried Atkins and keto and spent thousands of dollars over decades on weight-loss efforts and programs such as Noom, Nutrisystem and WeightWatchers. Since starting Ozempic in late November, she’s lost around 30 pounds. Her cholesterol and glucose levels have improved, and she can eat far fewer calories without feeling hungry, she said. Currently on a trip through Eastern Europe, she said she is doing more tours than she would have at a higher weight.
