Is Noom a Scam?

Melissa Landry
About this episode

Ever since Dalina found out about “Blue Monday” - aka the diet industry’s best sales day, we’ve wanted to give you a complete breakdown on the popular dieting app Noom. Why? This app is NOTORIOUS for using words like “intuitive eating” and claiming it's not a diet in its advertisements and search fields. That sounds promising, but is it?

Prior to the episode, Melissa downloaded the app, tried it for a few days, and reported back to Dalina what she found. We discuss:

  • what is the “psychology” the ads keep referring to?
  • what should you expect when signing up?
  • was there anything good about it?
  • ways noom could do better as an app

Dm us after this episode to let us know your thoughts. Will you be trying Noom anytime soon based on what you learned?
