Noom Diet Reviews

I have enjoyed using Noom and find the information invaluable. The tracking features for calories and exercise are just a bit behind some other apps - Fitbit, Lose It. I look forward to seeing what information/articles will be presented each day. I am not personally a fan of the coaching or groups. My coach might be a robot, the responses are just a bit off, and there is very little substance to anything she says. The group is too large and there’s just too much to go through when people respond to things.

Has really helped me start my weight loss journey. Goes over things I have not put together before. How your mind and body view food. I like the things you have to do every day and all the reinforcement that you get. I like the group's feedback also.

Noom is much more interactive and personal than other food tracking apps. Their goal specialists are kind and supportive. They do rely a lot on your group and often ask you to take things to your group, so depending on your group that could be good or not so good.

There is no nutrition tracking - only red, yellow or green foods. This is helpful to learn what kinds of foods to eat more of, but I really wish there was more nutritional information than calories.

If you struggle with addictive behavior with food, this may not be as helpful as you'd like, but it's a good place to start.

Canceling your order is going to require you to jump through some hoops. Customer service says to go through your goal specialist. Your goal specialist will direct you right back to customer service where you have to enter an(other) email request to cancel. Then they will cancel.

Overall, it's very informative and you'll learn a lot. The curriculum is good and full of information.

I'm really loving the program. I'm not as fast as many at dropping the weight, but the scale has seen a steady downward trend, which I'm enjoying! I've been making better choices, and don't feel like I've been shorted in any way food-wise.

One recommendation for new Noomers - get a journal or a notebook, and take notes throughout! I'm actually going back day by day to re-read the articles.

I've been using the Noom app and program since the beginning of January (2019). This has been just what I've been looking for in the diet/health genre. The app is great, but the program exceeds my expectations. Seeing real, life-changing results with Noom!

I have been working on achieving a healthy weight for most of my life. Noom is exactly what I needed, but I didn't know that such a program existed. I was looking for a behavioral and nutrition coach all in one as well as an easy way to journal my food intake. I already belong to a gym but did not have any support or guidance with nutrition not to mention any accountability for goals. Noom is fantastic! They have a goal specialist I can connect with weekly to review my goals and offer support and accountability (she checks in with me weekly), a group coach who checks in with our group daily and motivates us, provides challenges and encouragement, a meal logger which has many pre-entered foods already in the system and a built-in support group I can access at anytime.

In addition, there are informational articles broken into small fun snippets that address many of the questions and challenges I have encountered such as harboring distorted thoughts about food (good vs. bad foods, etc.), managing plateaus, goal setting templates, etc. There is nothing not to like about this program, which is also an app which makes it so convenient. I forgot to mention the built-in pedometer that measures my steps everywhere - I was blown away when I came back from the gym and had over 6000 steps logged on my phone!

This is such a comprehensive program - they have thought of everything, and it is truly everything I could imagine in a weight loss program. I don't even have to leave my house, everything is in the app. And there are many other features that I didn't even mention. This is like no other program I've ever known. I highly recommend Noom to anyone who wants a convenient, effective, supportive and fun way to lose weight and keep it off.

It's easier to say what Noom isn't - not an extreme food regime like Keto, not a pre-fab program like NutriSystem, not a glorified marketing strategy for their own food, like Weight Watchers.

With its blend of canned coursework, customized goals, and live support from a virtual group of fellow Noomers, this is a subtle, gradual, at least initially effective system for reprogramming your motives for eating and your relationship with food.

Yes, there are strict caloric limits, exercise/movement goals, and ambitious weight-loss milestones in the mix - but they are never in the foreground, never set up as formidable or scary, and if you backslide a bit, your timetable slides forward a bit without comment. You instead learn to rebalance your food intake toward more satisfying, less harmful/processed stuff while becoming more mindful and conscious of what you're putting in your mouth.

The goofy, relentlessly cheery, up-with-people Noom "tone of voice" isn't for everyone, and sometimes the daily devotionals ask you to focus on too much at once. You will not be eating a bunch of pizza or muffins (but a non-zero smidgen is OK). And it's too early in the Noom journey for me to give it five stars. But after about five weeks I do feel somewhat rewired and empowered to make better decisions - and I've lost 14 pounds with only intermittent hunger/cravings.

I think Noom may be onto something here. The system is smart, respects your intelligence, does not gloss over the hard truth that losing weight is truly difficult, and tries to inspire changes you can make for a lifetime, not some drastic ten-week crash course. Even if other programs have failed you (maybe especially if), Noom may be worth a shot.

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

The coaches are excellent, the plan is inspiring and easy to follow, and I really feel that I am changing my relationship with food. I am seeing slow and steady results, which is what I want for life! I would recommend to everyone!

I have been on Noom since the end of 2018. I love the educational piece of Noom. It teaches you so much about all aspects of nutrition, why we do what we do, and what to do instead. There is a support system in place that will be there to help you get back on track or give encouragement when you need it. I would recommend this to anyone who has been struggling with their weight.

I have really enjoyed the app. The articles, group and personal coach have been helpful. I appreciate the sharing of ideas when hitting obstacles and keeping it fresh. Would totally recommend!

I joined Noom this year with not only a weight loss goal, but for a lifelong lifestyle change. Six weeks in and I have learned so many things that I've easily incorporated already. I love the group sharing, the accountability factor with my coaches, and the entire psychology factor of it (including the corny jokes). I have lost about 1/4 of my goal, but have learned not to live like a yo-yo, how to plan, how to see food differently, how to exercise and even how to treat myself. This is the lifestyle change training that I was looking for.
