Jenny Craig is a well-known, structured weight loss plan that is popular due to its effectiveness for some users. As the official website for Jenny Craig explains, the program offers options for in-person or phone-based support, which helps to keep you on track. In addition, Jenny Craig offers personalization based upon your food preferences. The website also notes that Jenny Craig offers pre-made entrees, which can take out the stress of finding the right thing to eat and helps to eliminate temptation. Despite the success of Jenny Craig, you may want to find a plan that is less expensive or offers more freedom of food choice.

Diet To Go

According to the weight loss information website Every Diet, Diet To Go is a meal delivery system aimed at assisting weight loss, which makes it similar to Jenny Craig. Like Jenny Craig, Diet To Go offers a variety of meal plans--low fat, low carbohydrate, diabetic and vegetarian, according to Every Diet. Meal plans come in either 1,200 calories or 1,600 calories daily.

Nutrisystem

Nutrisystem is another well-known weight loss program that offers delivery of pre-made meals. Nutrisystem also offers a variety of meal plan options, as the program has men's and women's plans as well as diabetic and vegetarian options. Nutrisystem's official website notes that like Jenny Craig, it takes calorie counting out of dieting by providing balanced meals in controlled portion sizes. In addition, Nutrisystem offers support via an online community. According to Nutrisystem, losing 1 to 2 lbs per week is typical.

Biggest Loser Meal Plan Delivery

The Biggest Loser Meal Plan Delivery system offers the option of either five or seven day menus and is inspired by the reality television show, "The Biggest Loser." Despite the influence, however, it is unlikely you will experience the weight loss exhibited on the show because of the intense exercise regimen those contestants perform. The Biggest Loser Meal Plan Delivery program is similar to Jenny Craig because you can select a variety of pre-made meals that are delivered to your home. Like other plans, no calorie-counting is needed, and you can reach plan representatives online or by phone.

DineWise

DineWise is another meal delivery system that offers a wide variety of meal plans depending upon your dieting preferences. According to the official website for DineWise, possible meal plan options on this program include low carbohydrate, vegetarian, low sodium, diabetic and senior citizen. DineWise claims it uses gourmet ingredients and that its flash-freezing process maintains freshness.
