Noom Diet Reviews

I got a Noom subscription because I was really excited about the people element. I wanted to be part of a group that could discuss progress and get support. Unfortunately, the coaches don't seem to have a lot of time to actually add a whole lot of value, maybe they're stretched really thin? It seems like a lot of generic copy and pasting, I even wondered if it was a bot for a while.

I was still really drinking the Kool-Aid until I started a thread in a discussion group about learning to be healthy and recovering from eating disorders and the admin deleted it. That cut me pretty deep. I had thought that there was an open invitation to have discussions in a safe space about weight loss and weight gain not only from a calorie counting perspective but a mental/emotional one as well. I had a little cry and took a break from Noom for a few days. Oh well.

I do really enjoy the nightly reading and all the "Noom-science." It's written in a very friendly, fun way that is engaging and helpful. The app is fairly straightforward and useful too. Easy to navigate. I'm going to try to take advantage of the "teachings" rather than the groups/coaches, which is unfortunate because that's why I bought Noom in the first place.

Overall, I wouldn't purchase if I had a do-over, but still not a complete dud.

Noom is expertly crafted to bring you science-based information on a daily basis to help you in your weight loss journey. The information is motivating, informative, and leads to long-term changes. Having experience myself as a personal trainer and exercise science major in college, I will say that this program is truly built for long-term success. Noom is credible and its output is well thought out. Noom responds to customer service issues quickly and is responsive to accounting issues. The coaches are a fun way to make my weight loss journey more engaging. I can say the same for the group messaging platform.

For me what I really like is the fact when I go missing from logging meals, I have a friendly coach who reminds me. I had told my coach that was an issue for me and the fact that I get that reminder holds me accountable, and I appreciate. Like other programs you may not be reminded at all or till you show up for a meeting once a week. Noom reminds me after a day or two of not logging.

I like the program, but I don't love it. You have all this science but I don't really see any meal plans. Unless you buy that, which I did, but I can't find that in the app, I have to go somewhere else. I'm not sure how convenient it is. Although my coach is always on hand - I like my coach a lot, she is on top of it and follows me quite closely. You need to have a lot more recipes than you do. It would be nice to have a list of food and how much of these foods you would want to eat in a weeks time. You do not have that, so it leaves you feeling like you may not be doing things correctly. I get the green, yellow, and red food. But really how much am I allowed to have - not a diagram of the percent. Like anything new, it requires a constant follow up.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I started with Noom just a little over a month ago and I am so happy that I did. It is helping me understand why I make the decisions I do, change my relationship with food and connect me with others who have similar struggles and triumphs. Every day I say to myself that it's as though the "Noom Nerds" live in my house and it reminds me that the situations I am going through are not just mine they are what many, many people deal with and go through. The difference with Noom is that they have techniques and solutions for those tough times. I love Noom.

I decided throughout the Holidays that starting 2019 I would gain control of my physical life. I had gastric bypass back in 2004 and much has happened since. In 14 years I gained back 50 lbs and knew that if I didn't begin to control my physical life, I'd be back where I was before the gastric bypass, which has always been a fear of mine. So New Year's Eve I committed, signed up, paid the fee. I have been on target every day, logging in my calorie intake, reading my articles, adding some type of physical activity. Thank you Noom! With you by my side, I have lost 19 lbs in my first month. I look forward to the next 11 months with you as my guide.

I am on week six. So far, I LOVE the daily little articles and the information is well written and completely digestible (pun intended!). I find that it really is changing my mindset about daily life with food.

I find the coaching a bit lacking. I sent a challenge to my coach for ideas and what I got back was more questions. Not helpful. I also find the forum needs work. The posts are all over the place. When a daily task sends me there I see posts on various topics instead of the task I was sent there to do.

Overall I would still recommend Noom.

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

Very different than anything I’ve ever seen before. It’s very comprehensive, deals with things I never even thought of. Clearly a lot of research was done to perfect this process. I have said goodbye to dieting forever, and said hello to redefining my relationship with my body and with food. I definitely recommend this.

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

This is the best weight-loss or diet plan I've ever used. I still find the workout plan a bit overwhelming each time I try to follow their recommendations, but I know they'll work if I'll bite the bullet. But for food intake, best practices for food choices, recipe ideas, psychological help, and encouragement along the way, this is by far the greatest product that I've ever used. And I've used Weight Watchers, Fat Smash, Keto, and others over the years. This is the first time that I really feel and believe I'll be able to follow this new lifestyle for years to come and finally see permanent improvement and change.

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

Noom changes everything. It’s not all about restricting calories. It smart tips to change the way you think about food. Finally, a program that uses science and psychology to change your behavior and attitude about food. The program is easy to follow and they truly get me. And I am finally losing weight for good.

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

I've done every weight loss program in existence, none with long-lasting results. What makes Noom different is that the focus is not primarily about restricting food intake but rather fixing my head space around my relationship with food, with myself, the psychology and physiology that goes into the choices that we make, and in a way that's educational and entertaining. From day one I am getting educated on how to manage myself for the long run.
