noom <https://www.noom.com>could be called a weight-loss program. In fact, it's a life-change program, driven by science and especially cognitive psychology.
I got interested in noom because two of Rebecca's friends lost 45+ and 50+ pounds with noom, and kept off the pounds. I am seriously overweight myself, so I thought I would give it a try. I've been on the plan for about a month. Yes, I've lost weight, but I'm not going to talk about that until I've met my goal and kept the weight off for a few months. The major, stunning, surprise is how much I keep learning about diet, health, habits, and psychology, especially thought distortions. Folks, this program would be of great value even if you are at an ideal weight and even if you are extremely fit an healthy. I came to see that I have been in a *major* rut for at least several years. I've been focused on doing the same thing over and over and over again. Noom's focus is on lasting, *sustainable*, enjoyable new eating and living habits. One crucial component of sustainable habits is variety in the midst of routines. This lead me directly to the notion of taking a sabbatical. Simple as that. I expect to follow the noom way for the rest of my life. It's likely the only way to keep the weight off. Otoh, the daily reminders, learning and support I get from noom gives me great confidence that the plan will work. And it's a lot of fun.
