139. I tried Noom for a week - here's what happened

Intuitive Eating & Body Positivity with Terri Pugh

Send me a message - text me!

Hello, intuitive eaters! I'm thrilled to be back with you after a short break. I initially planned to return in September, but I missed our conversations and your wonderful support. Thank you for your lovely messages wishing me well during my time off; they truly mean a lot to me!

What’s New?

During my break, I took some time to reflect on the Eat From Within membership options. I’m excited to announce a new 4-month subscription plan! Imagine entering the holiday season with a healthier relationship with food and body image. You could enjoy Christmas dinner without the stress of calorie counting or worrying about your outfit. Check out the links section below in the show notes to sign up!

This Week’s Topic: My Experience with Noom

In this episode, I’m telling you all about my experience with Noom, a popular app that claims to support weight loss through a unique approach.
I wanted to try it on your behalf and share my insights from an intuitive eating perspective. I’m going to spill the beans on all of this:

• The sign-up process
• Calorie counting, and whether I was given enough
• Tracking and logging food
• Colour-coded food categories
• Daily weigh-ins and how they made me feel
• Exercise tracking
• Constant reminders from the app
• In-app lessons
• Noom’s holistic approach to well-being
• How it works with intuitive eating
• How it feels mentally as well as physically
• And whether I’d recommend it or not

Also, the episode I refer to about standing on the scales and weighing myself, and what that brought up for me, is way back at episode 4. Go give it a listen!
