I think the Noom folks probably have the best intentions, and I don't want to bash them for their efforts, but this program did not work for me. I am a 60-year-old woman who had a hysterectomy and gained 10 pounds in a year. I had hoped Noom would help me shed that weight and more. I stayed on the prescribed calorie intake for 6 weeks - I did more steps than required too - zero weight loss. I didn't like being part of the group chat - that did nothing for me. And I don't have time to sit and read all the info that was required daily. I know 90% of that stuff.
My doctor asked me to stop the program because the calorie level was far too low. He switched me over to more of a Keto diet, and I have finally achieved the weight loss. No diet plan works for everyone, but I would think long and hard before I would suggest a friend try the Noom approach.
Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
