Is anyone else doing Noom? Any success stories you’d be willing to share? Tips for sticking to it while WFH?

I’m starting it for the 2nd time now and just stocked up on tons of grapes 😄

I filled the house with fruits and veg and soups and all the green foods. I also had a food scale. Every time I got hungry I would put 100g in a bowl, log it, and snack on them. I was almost never hungry but stayed within budget the whole time!
Another tip is some days I would go over, but I’d make it up the next day, because days aren’t siloed. Went from around 220lbs to 190lbs in 3 months and kept it off for half a year now.

Go get it!

Wow congrats!! Thanks for the tips! I just got myself a fancy new food scale and I kind of love using it 😄

Commenting to follow- in the middle of the 2 week trial right now, and so far so good.

I started Noom after Memorial Day and down 20 lbs. so far. I focus more on the calories than green/yellow/red, but do make more progress with green foods. Some of their categories are way off, though. Like, Pedialyte for my hangover may be low cal, but should it really be green? Guess green doesn’t necessarily equal healthy.

My work gives us points/money for achieving certain activities such as exercising for 180 mins per week. I have my Apple Watch automatically sync with the app that tracks our activities and it works great. Problem is I started using NRC (Nike run Club) app for runs and it interferes with the Workout app on my Apple Watch and it doesn’t get tracked. Has anyone found a way for the NRC and Workout app to run simultaneously (pun intended)?

Sweaty post-workout question. If I finish a bike or run in the heat I am usually just pouring sweat for the next 15 or so mins. So I've gotten into the habit of just putting a towel or yoga mat down on the floor and laying/stretching until I am not going to throw sweat everywhere or step in to the shower and step out still sweating. Is there a better version of this maybe for recovery or even just not wasting time waiting?
