I saw the commercials for Noom and thought it might be a great way to help me! I downloaded the app to find out that it would cost me, roughly $19.00 a month. They claim that the program should be done for at least 8 months. It boasts about coaches, education, and accountability. I found all of this lacking. The "coach" seemed like a bot that just fills in the blanks. Also, it seemed as though it auto-generated responses to reiterate my own responses back to me to make me think it was real. Only a dummy would think that.

So I did the 14-day trial which entailed logging food, crappy educational today bits, a robotic coach and promises for something better the next day which never really happened. It required me to utilize my phone for every move to count my steps. Which is nearly impossible to do because who keeps their phone in their hands the whole day? Really, it came down to only using the app to log food, and I can do that on any free app. I do like that they split the food up into colored groups, but then again that doesn’t work if the food logs aren’t actually accurate or updated. I, unlike many here, was actually able to message my cancellation. Once I did that, it asked me why I wanted to cancel and offered me to go on a month to month basis with cancellation anytime instead of one lump up front charge. I, of course, declined and canceled altogether. Not useful for me whatsoever.
