Are proprietary diet programs worthwhile or just marketing gimmicks?

Since my mid-forties, I've been frustrated by weight creep, the inevitable midlife "spread." Even though I'm fairly active and try to eat healthfully, the scale is not being very friendly. I've been thinking about going on some sort of "managed" diet program, like Jennie Craig or Nutrisystem; but, concerned that they're more marketing gimmicks than anything else. What's so special about their packaged foods? Is it more just the convenience of having things figured out for you? Has anyone tried such programs and gotten results? Inquiring mind wants to know. :)
