Following up on apps like Noom

[Anonymous]

I started a thread a while ago about using noom or some other app besides Mfp. Just wanted to report back that I ended up paying for Transform and am really happy with it. It’s a branded app from the couple from the show Extreme Weight Loss. I’m not exactly a fan (watched the show sometimes but don’t care about them really) but I’ve really loved the app. It guides macros through a carb-cycling diet and gives you specific daily workouts. For me it’s the right amount of specific/flexible about what to do.

It’s definitely not for everyone but I’ve lost 10 of the 50 lbs I have to lose and feel a lot better carb cycling than I ever did on low carb.

Noom charged my card without authorization. They would only refund half. I had to find the board on Twitter and deal with them that way for a full refund but it worked.

Yeah I saw tons of mad former customers which is part of why I skipped it.

I signed up for Noom and really like it. The daily check ins for me is working well and I like the way I track my foods, weight and exercise. I won’t need it long term so I need to figure how to track those things once I’m done with the program. Thanks for letting me know they may continue to charge me. I’ll watch for that.

I’m the PP who got charged. Apparently the only way to cancel is to message your coach. The cancellation info is very difficult to find. Be mindful of when your subscription is up to make sure you cancel before they charge you again.

A DP using Noom, here. I'm in week 11 (of 12 or 16 weeks, I forget) and starting to tire of the daily app tasks. But I loved it for 10 weeks and I do think it works. My coach texted me when I didn't open the app for a day.

What are the daily app tasks?

I've posted about Noom before. I think I've finally found the best method for me. It's changed my attitude toward food gradually but very powerfully--similar to WW's, but WW kept changing the plan.

I'm at week 10 of 16. Thanks for the advice to make sure I cancel on time!
