Noom: Healthy Weight Loss 12+

I’ve been with Noom for a month now and I’m really enjoying the platform. The information they give you is broken down into easily digestible groups, their approach to weight loss is different than anything I’ve tried before. There is the calorie tracking element, water intake tracking, steps taken, all that stuff but, it’s more there for you to see how you are progressing instead of being drilled into your head that you have to do all those things without fail everyday to see success. I’m down 10 pounds as of this morning and I’m very pleased with that. I haven’t been hungry all the time like some programs, I can tell I’m making some better choices when packing my lunch and going grocery shopping following their guidelines. I’ve even found some healthier alternatives to certain things I would usually eat that still satisfy my craving without blowing my calorie budget or feeling guilty. I also enjoy the social aspect of the app, after your first few days you get to meet your team, which is compromised of other users and your group coach. It’s nice to be able to bounce concerns, frustrations and victories off each other and the group coach posts helpful suggestions and tips to work past plateaus and get you to the next level. Overall, I would recommend trying this company if you have some weight you’d like to shed without starving yourself or just eating cabbage & onion soup all day, everyday 😂

We're so happy to hear how much you've been enjoying your experience! Thanks so much for being a part of our Noomily.

I have spent years thinking in terms of labels (bad foods) (good foods). I would literally get up every day and think obsessively about food and wonder, how do I not eat bad today and of coarse by afternoon and evening I was storm eating and I thought I was going to have to give up my beloved pinocle parties that go on 3 days a week because of all the sugary treats that are everywhere on card day, now I plan for those, even allowing myself to have 2 Hershey miniatures and my coffee with cream. I have embraced breakfast which I had stopped eating because I hoped it would keep my overall calories down and all it did was make me hungrier for the afternoons. I have not lost much weight, but I get to go to bed without feeling like a failure, imagine going to bed every night so upset and so sick from overeating day after day week after week, I haven’t told many people but I was starting to wish I would just die and get it over with, I’m free right now and loving my new friend food, food of all sorts, even those I once considered evil and bad and finally the weight gaining has stopped and I have even lost a little in the past month, I can’t describe the gratitude for a friend who did it before me and when online one day I accidentally stumbled on an advertisement, asked my sweetheart if I could spend the money to try it and bless his heart after so many books and money spent he didn’t hesitate to say yes and here I am.

Way to go! That was amazing to read. We're so happy to hear Noom has changed your relationship with food and made you mindful of your eating habits. Keep up the awesome work building healthier habits with your Noom family!

I’ve been using this app for 5 months, and I thought I would get frustrated recording my meals every day knowing that I didn’t have full intentions to diet. Somewhere between the daily lessons and recording my weight daily, the way that I looked at food did actually change. The knowledge was in the back of my mind as I would roughly measure out serving sizes for a meal without much thought or effort. I gained weight for awhile after downloading, as initially I was just recording and not actually changing anything I normally did. The changes started to happen subtly and semi-automatically as I logged in every day, completing the lessons, recording my meals, and connecting my Fitbit to keep score of my daily steps. After a peak of 7 lbs gained while going through the program, I began to lose steadily. My highest recorded weight has been around 173 lbs. since joining Noom, and I am now at my lowest of 156 lbs. today. I decided to finally share a review, as the app creators deserve some credit after a 17 lb. loss, regardless of fluctuations throughout. With more effort and commitment than I have had, I’m sure others could lose the weight quicker. Either way, if you’re looking to lose weight in a sustainable way - this is a good app to have in your arsenal. (For further behavioral changes you wish to make that may or may not be weight loss related, I have found that “Fabulous” is an excellent app to supplement your Noom usage.)

We are so proud of your awesome progress! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your review and experience with us!
