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