Motivation. If we could snap our fingers and suddenly have it, we’d be snapping like we were at a poetry slam right now. Sadly, that’s just not how it works. When it comes to health and wellness, motivation is basically the king of hide-and-seek, nearly impossible to find. And when we do find it? It squirms and slips away before we can even get a firm grip!
It’s really hard to find the motivation to work out and eat healthy when the couch and chocolates are so much more readily available to us. No matter how badly we want to make changes in our life and our body, the temptation to cheat on a meal or end a workout early is just too much — especially in the long-term. We wish we could just change our way of thinking about this. Maybe we can’t on our own, but you know what? Maybe with Noom, it’s not such an impossible task after all!

One thing that is especially useful for weight loss is access to a personal coach. That’s how Drew Barrymore lost 20 pounds, after all. She just recently posted a slideshow of photos and videos on her Instagram totally dedicated to her trainer, Marnie Alton, showing off her before-and-after progress and some of her workouts that 100% paid off. She wrote how Alton not only taught her exercise techniques, but actually “healed” her, making her believe in herself and her own strength, allowing her to be her best self!
We may not have access to a master celebrity trainer like Alton or even one based at our local gym, but there is one trainer we can all have access to, and all we need is our smartphone. That’s Noom! Noom covers all of the bases, from dieting, to exercising, to overall wellness, and since each of its Goal Specialists is specially trained in cognitive behavior therapy, they can identify and address the behavioral patterns that are keeping motivation from showing its face!

Success is already in the picture! It’s then you can claim your completely customized plan, made just for you, and start talking one on one with your Goal Specialist!
Our Goal Specialist can help set us up with goals to hit week by week, as well as meals to try and tricks to remember. You can always check in with them if you’re facing a lifestyle change, struggling with something or want to try something new. Meanwhile, you can use the rest of the app to log your food every day through the color-coded system, encourage and receive encouragement from other Noomers and even count your steps with the award-winning pedometer.
