What is Noom?

Noom is a mobile-based wellness program that uses psychology to encourage long-term healthy eating habits. Through the Noom app, you get:

  • Personalized, one-on-one coaching from a health expert and a support group with other Noom users for motivation and support
  • A progress tracker to log meals and water intake, record your exercise sessions, input your blood pressure and glucose and track your weight loss progress
  • An in-app pedometer
  • Access to courses that walk you through lessons, like the psychology of weight loss and food fundamentals, using interactive articles, games and quizzes
  • The ability to chat with a clinician

The program is backed by 40 peer-reviewed scientific articles and a team of behavioral health experts, neuroscientists and statisticians.

How does Noom work?

Noom works by motivating you to change your behavior through psychology lessons. To start, you complete a quiz that takes about 10 minutes to determine your individualized weight loss plan. The quiz asks you to answer questions about your goals, health, current habits, behaviors and more.

After you take the quiz, you make your initial payment and download the app to start the program.

Noom programs

Noom has three programs: Noom Weight, Noom Mood, and Noom Med:

  • Noom Weight: This is Noom’s flagship weight loss program, built on personalized plans and a habit-changing approach to weight loss.
  • Noom Mood: A program that provides tools and coaching for individuals to learn to balance stress and anxiety. Like Noom Weight, the program starts with a quiz to ensure that you get recommendations uniquely tailored to you.
  • Noom Med: Noom customers can access weight loss medications, including GLP-1s like semaglutide. Noom also offers hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women going through menopause to help support weight loss.

Noom example

For a woman in her 20s wanting to lose 35 pounds, Noom calculated a daily calorie goal of 1,320 over six months. This is with a weight loss speed of 7 out of Noom’s 9-point scale.

The daily calorie goal is based on your age, starting weight, goal weight and preferred weight loss speed. Noom doesn’t scold you if you don’t meet your goals — it provides motivating messages encouraging you to continue doing lessons instead.

What can you eat on Noom?

The Noom diet plan doesn’t have food exclusions or banned foods. Instead, foods are assigned a color — green, yellow or red — that acts as a portion guide and not an indicator of “good” or “bad” food.

  • Noom green foods: Green foods are the least calorie-dense and have the highest number of nutrients. Most green foods are vegetables and whole grains, such as spinach, apples, sweet potatoes and brown rice. Noom users can eat green foods in larger quantities.
  • Noom yellow foods: Yellow foods have less healthy nutrients than green foods but can be enjoyed in moderate proportions. Many yellow foods are starches, lean meats and dairy products, including eggs, salmon and black beans.
  • Noom orange foods: Orange foods are the highest in calories and have the least healthy nutrients. Most orange foods are red meats and dessert dishes, like bacon, popcorn, almonds and ice cream. Orange foods aren’t totally off-limits but should be eaten mindfully.

When you log your meals or snacks into the Noom app, it automatically sorts the food into one of the three colors so you can monitor the number of calories you’re eating from each group and visually see where to make improvements.

How much does Noom cost?

Noom costs $70 per month for the monthly auto-renewing plan. However, the more months you commit to, the better the deal — see the auto-renewing subscription pricing below.

  • Monthly plan: $70
  • Two-month plan: $129
  • Three-month plan: $159
  • Four-month plan: $169
  • Five-month plan: $174
  • Six-month plan: $179
  • Seven-month plan: $184
  • Eight-month plan: $189
  • Nine-month plan: $195
  • 10-month plan: $199
  • 11-month plan: $205
  • Annual plan: $209

Since Noom plans are individualized, the total cost of your plan will vary based on the recommended time it takes to reach your goal weight.

Medications are an additional cost on top of these subscription fees, with GLP-1s starting at $149.

Is Noom worth it?

Noom is worth it if you want to lose weight through learning healthy habits and psychological methods. A reviewer from Georgia said, “This has been one of the best experiences I’ve had losing weight, learning about my body and mind and maintaining motivation. Compared to other programs, the focus is on LEARNING!”

However, Noom might not be for you if you don’t want to log every detail of your meal. A reviewer from Nebraska said, “While the lessons are great and give me a lot to work on, the coaching and food logging leave a lot to be desired.”

Overall, Noom gives users the motivation and support they need to change their habits for the better.

Noom FAQ

How much does Noom cost per month?

The monthly Noom subscription starts at $70 per month but goes down dramatically as you commit to additional months. For example, the annual plan is $209, which equates to about $17.40 per month.

Is there a free version of Noom?

You can download the Noom app for free and use it to log weight, food, and exercise. Most of the other features, including access to the Noom community and 1-on-1 coaching, require a paid subscription.

Will Noom prescribe Ozempic?

Noom does offer GLP-1 medications, including Ozempic and compounded semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic). Noom clinicians will prescribe the medications as needed.

    Noom weight loss with GLP-1 is a SCAM! I signed up for the Noom promotion of $79 including GLP-1 meds. I met with the Telehealth professional who sent a RX to a pharmacy in CA. I have been waiting for 22 days. The Care team app is AI managed so they cannot troubleshoot. It was a continuous loop of trying to re-register me with a Telehealth professional, customer service center trying to get me to resubscribe for another 3 months so I could get the meds. I called the pharmacy myself and was informed that they couldn't fill the RX because I was "out of zone" - I live in Massachusetts and they are in CA. SO clearly Noom doesn't give a s*** to check for eligible pharmacies. What a waste of 22 days. I am done.

    My experience was terrible. I signed up and the cost was reasonable. However, my meds were shipped in properly. Did not have a cold pack and were only sent in a insulated bag. Bottle was cloudy. I called to complain. They said that they would re-ship my meds but nothing ever transpired after that so I actually had a call and cancel and complain and tell them to forget it and just refund me.

      My onboarding experience with Noom's medical weight loss program has been incredibly disappointing. I enrolled hoping to receive an oral weight loss medication, but the prescribing provider mistakenly prescribed an injectable medication instead. I immediately reached out to have the error corrected, but it's now been over two weeks, and I still haven't heard back from the doctor despite sending multiple messages. I've also contacted Noom's support team several times. While they've been polite, they've repeatedly told me they can't reach the prescribing provider or resolve the issue themselves. As a result, I've been stuck paying for a service I haven't been able to use.

      To make matters worse, Noom has refused to refund the $150 I paid, even though the issue was caused by an incorrect prescription on their end. Mistakes happen, but what concerns me most is the complete lack of communication and accountability. If you're considering Noom's medical weight loss program, I'd strongly recommend looking at other options where providers are responsive and customer support is actually empowered to help when something goes wrong.

      I was excited when my company paid for my Noom subscription. I inquired about paying to add medication and they told me that was not possible. They are greedy. The lessons were good at first but are now a stretch.

      Prior to joining Noom Med in March of 2026, I contacted them with my questions, which were related to if they allow people on Medicare, who self-pay for GLP FDA-approved meds into the Noom Med program. They confirmed that as long as I self-pay, I would be fine. From March 2026 until June 7, 2026 their Care Team and clinicians approved and wrote renewal prescriptions for FDA-approved Zepbound, which was then processed by LillyDirect. Today, one of their nurses refused to renew the next prescription and said they don’t write prescriptions for people on Medicare, even if they are self-pay. For three months, they did renew my prescriptions and never mentioned anything about Medicare.

      It seems to me that they are discriminating against people on Medicare, who want FDA-approved meds as Noom Med is pushing their non- FDA compounds. I was advised, by their care team to contact them to see about “other medications” offered. Furthermore, their chatbot also affirmed that prescriptions for FDA approved meds would be available to me even if on Medicare as long as it was self-pay. Needless to say, I will be canceling my subscription and also filing a complaint with Medicare against Noom Med for discrimination and requesting an investigation into their shady practices!

      Noom and Carefirst have established a sweetheart policy that forces me to hand over daily, private lifestyle and biophysical data to a private tech company with unknown long-term privacy protections, solely to receive the medication in support of a treatment plan that was set up by a trusted provider. Noom doesn't care about me given their threats to block my treatment. Apparently, my treatment and result are only valuable to me and my primary care provider, Noom doesn't care and I don't like the gatekeeping of my medical journey from my PCP provider, who was forced out of the decision process and monitoring, which is especially egregious given previous serious side effects that occurred on similar medications. I don't trust Noom and I hate BCBS for their coercion and unnecessary intervention in this process.

      Before signing up, I called Noom to get clarification. I agreed to have a phone call recorded. I was given false information and said I had to take the call with the provider to get any additional questions answered. The membership fee does not include the medication even though the representative confirmed on the call it did. The call was recorded, but NOOM will not refer to the call. Luckily, I have the call also recorded, and I will take this further.

      I was bounced around back and forth between people when I first started to get answers to my questions but my real issue is that the company tried to force me to buy 3 months of medication I did not need. I reached my goal weight and wanted to slowly titrate off the medication as my doctor recommended. I needed one more month of medication. But they would not sell it to me. Dangerous policy that shows they are interested in money, not their patients. My doctor was appalled. Beware.

      Signed up for the 3 months semaglutide injections. Terrible instructions on how to use. Gained weight instead of losing. Got terrible acid reflux. The “doctor” assigned was rude. The care team’s only advice was to log calories and water intake. I ate less and felt like shit. Go to a real doctor

      Well, I was quite happy with the weight loss success for the first month on the new med program. I opted to have mats delivered for three months. Since I paid all at once, I expected the medication to be delivered all at once however, it was only one month at a time, and I was traveling overseas. I requested to have all the meds delivered all at once, but they only delivered enough for one additional month. When I tried to get a refund for the last month, they canceled my subscription and access to the new app, even though I was still taking medication. Having contacted Noom support several times, they never activated my account again and repeated how they understood how frustrating it must be for me. As long as you don't have to deal with customer support, you might be fine on this program.
