[quote=Anonymous]I have been using Noom for 3 weeks and have lost 4 pounds. I’m irritated that I’m paying full price now that I hear they’d have offered a discount if I quit. I will do that next month.

I agree with others who have said that the focus on fat free stuff and fake sugars is annoying. I disagree that a fat free yogurt should be treated as a green food but a full fat yogurt would be red. Regardless of the caloric density (the formula they use to categorize foods), regular yogurt is much more satiating and has the added bonus of not tasting terrible.

I have a lot of weight to lose but set my first goal as 15 pounds in 8 weeks. They set me immediately to 1200 calories a day, which is really too low in my opinion. Sure, I’d love to lose weight fast but 1200/day means it’s almost impossible to eat any foods outside of the house and that’s incompatible with my lifestyle.

I find the psychology part of Noom to be fun and motivating. The app also works really well for tracking foods. I like the accountability. I’m going to stick with it but it’s far from perfect. And I can’t say I’m thrilled with sticking to 1200/day and only losing 1 pound per week. CICO would have indicated closer to 6 pounds by now. There’s a lot more to weight loss than CICO, obviously.
