I really like Noom!

By Lisa H., Madera, CA, Verified Reviewer

I'm really getting a lot from Noom in regards to taking my weight off. I want to lose a total of about 60 pounds. With this program, it feels doable. The timely information provided always seems to be just what I need at exactly the right time. It is very helpful to me that I get all kinds of information in regards to what I am going through as I move through this program. For the most part, I know half of the information as I've tried to lose weight many times. The other half of it I didn't know or I forgot hearing it. To know the reasons why I eat or can't seem to eat healthily, are big motivators to changing my attitudes about eating.

I like interacting with others that I don't already know in regards to our weight loss journeys. I'm not a person who would want to meet up once a week to discuss losing weight. I have local buddies who will exercise with me as I increase my exercise overall by doing Noom. I am currently in my 7th week of Noom.

If you really want to change the way you eat and lose weight permanently on a plan you can do for the rest of your life, look into Noom.

Excellent way to learn to live healthy.

By Jody T., North Carolina, Verified Reviewer

I'm loving Noom so far! The program gives you all the information you need to reach a healthy weight. You just have to have the drive to follow it and the will to get healthy. You'll be provided with the apps you need to calculate your calories for what you need to drop weight and ultimately find that healthy you!

Noom is a game-changer for me!

By Valerie P., Boynton Beach, FL, Verified Reviewer

I've had a lifelong struggle with weight and have been on Weight Watchers (on and off and on again and off again!) since I'm 12 years old (55 now!). In fact, I have a masters in exercise science, yet in the last 10 years I had some health problems and life issues and found myself tipping the scales at just over 300 lbs. CRAZY. I saw Noom on Facebook and looked into it further. The initial onboarding with the seeking the real "why" struck something deep within my psyche and it broke a psychological barrier that was keeping me stuck (I'm also a binge eater which has been so difficult to control). I started the program that moment (December 1st, 2018) and the last 4 weeks have been unbelievable. I have changed my habits, I have changed my "mind" (so to speak). I love checking in each morning on my tablet while having coffee and then again at night after dinner, which, by the way, gives my belly time to register that I'm full! Even though I know so much of this from my education, this program has done something that nothing before has accomplished successfully. I'm an absolute convert, and I can really see Noom taking me all the way.

Real game changer

By Nancy J., Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada, Verified Reviewer

This app/program really helps you change your eating and exercise choices. I love how deep into the psychology it goes and how helpful the counselors are.

And it’s research-based and entertaining, making me want to do my ten minutes a day of learning.

I loved it

By Linda W., Anchorage, AK, Verified Reviewer

Everything I wanted was all in one place. Calorie tracking, weight loss tracking, step counting, exercising tracking, a coach that was there when I needed him and the price was right since I got in on a Christmas special. I've always had trouble with calorie tracking in the past because of the tediousness of having to look up all the ingredients or not being able to use prepared foods, but it's all there in Noom. I couldn't be happier. I've been on it a week, and I've lost 3.5 pounds. I can see staying with Noom until I've lost all the weight I need to lose!

Weight loss made fun and entertaining

By Polina B., Moscow, Russia, Verified Reviewer

The best thing about Noom is that it makes weight loss fun. All talk about weight loss usually boils down to blaming you for being "fat" and "lazy" (not very motivating) and urging you to change your life overnight (not very sustainable). The tone and message of Noom is different. It explains why we become overweight and helps to change habits in baby steps. Being a researcher myself, I also appreciated the scientific basis of the program and citing the studies.

The most challenging thing for me is to keep up with the readings and group posts. There are so many exercises and things to do every day that I often feel that I’m lagging behind. As for the results, when I used Noom for the first time, I reached my weight goal before the end of the course. It was quite easy. Now I’m using it for the second time, and it’s more challenging. My weight is decreasing more slowly, and my calorie budget is smaller, so I have to be really mindful about what and how much I eat. But nevertheless, I hope that eventually I’ll reach my goal and have the body I want.

Not perfect, but pretty great!

By Leah B., Boston, MA, Verified Reviewer

I've been using Noom for the past 6 weeks, and have been quite happy with the program. The lessons are great, and there is lots of support and accountability. Not only have I been losing weight, but I have been changing my relationship with my body and with food. I actually feel fairly confident that I will be able to stick with this long term - this is not just a "fad diet" program.

Is it perfect? No, of course not. Coaches are not always responsive or available when you need them. The group aspect can be hit or miss, depending on your group. And the logging system is not as comprehensive as others (like My Fitness Pal). Despite all of that, I think it is totally worth it. I would absolutely recommend it if you are ready for a lifestyle change.

Things to know before you start:

- Make sure you own a scale.

- Keep a journal of your journey - this helps the lessons feel less overwhelming at times.

- Know that Noom often offers discounts - I ended up getting my program at 80% off on a Cyber Monday deal.

- FOLLOW THE LESSONS! Remember that YOU have to do the hard work. This is not a magic fix - it is helping you retrain your brain and your relationship with food. It takes time, and it takes some trust.

Fabulous new friends!

By Carol H., Oregon, Verified Reviewer

Joined just prior to Christmas....made it through the holidays with lots of support and encouragement from coach and group! Wasn't certain how all of this would work but it has been an exciting journey so far. I have made new friends that have similar struggles with weight and self-image. The coaching has been super plus having someone to "talk" to has been really uplifting. Sharing ideas, trials, errors, and triumphs has been just what I needed to succeed at this very difficult task of losing and maintaining mental outlook. The reinforcement has been terrific. I would recommend this program very highly!

The tools for success that will change your world

By Tatjana V., Saratoga County, NY, Verified Reviewer

I was on another program for three years and change. It's a popular program. I was extremely successful and lost quite a lot of weight over those three years. The way I decided I was done was when the scale "would.not.budge.at.all." As I was finished, I got a cute charm and a couple of pamphlets. There was no support. Guess what happened? All I could think about was dieting; I was obsessing about my food ALL THE TIME. In my heart, I didn't think I was done. Even one of my doctors agreed with me. I'm not sure how I decided to do it, but I was looking up some research and came across Noom somehow. I thought, why the heck not? Keep in mind, I'm a librarian, so I like FACTS. You know, SCIENCE. None of that was in view in the other program.

The first 10 days passed uneventfully, but I learned so much that I didn't previously know! I started implementing little changes - TINY CHANGES - as I learned them. At the end of the second week, my brain started to change. I suddenly was able to set down diet brain and connect to what I needed and wanted, and what happens when diet brain is in charge of me.

Yes. I've lost weight. I'm not going to lie - I'm over the moon about it. It's a very decent amount of weight. I'm very close to the goal I gave up on. But (and I hate it when people say this) it's so much deeper than that. There is science in hand to help me understand the science behind what happens in and around this weight loss circus. These are the things that make things happen, and these are the things you can do to mitigate those things. Why? Science. This is the SCIENCE.

I also realized that weight loss is terrible if all you think about after your reach "your goal" is, well, weight loss. I realized one of my goals was to get out from under the tyranny of dieting.

When you add the group that you have for focused reporting, and the Goal Coach, Noom is a winner. I'm a HUGE fan. I am no longer at the mercy of my diet. Who can argue with THAT?

I'm a Noomer

By Zakiyya R., Pennsylvania, Verified Reviewer

I love Noom. This program has been really helpful with changing habits in addition to establishing new ones. It really gives you an inside look into what weight loss really is. Having daily activities keeps me working on my big picture. The app is user-friendly. I really love everything about it. The one thing I would like to see change is more meetings with your assigned goal specialist. I think 2-3 times a week would be better.

Impressed

By Tasha A., Wyoming, Verified Reviewer

I am truly loving my experience to its entity. No problems, works great. One of the best apps I have on the phone, keeps me accountable and on track. Wide variety of recipes. Wide range of restaurants with calories so you know what you're eating while you're out and about. Truly one of the best lifestyle changing apps I have on my phone.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
