9 Noom Alternatives That Actually Deliver (2025)

Noom built its reputation on psychology‑based weight loss. But in 2025 the platform shifted focus to higher‑ticket programs—namely Noom Med for GLP‑1 drugs—while its classic coaching plan still locks users into a multi‑month commitment that averages $42.25 per month (billed $169 upfront). Add the $149‑a‑month GLP‑1 companion, and you’re flirting with a four‑figure annual bill before prescription costs.
If you’re after evidence‑based weight management without the sticker shock—or you simply want features Noom lacks, like family meal planning or automated macro targets—there are solid alternatives. This guide compares the best options, from holistic lifestyle platforms to medical GLP‑1 programs, so you can pick the one that fits your biology and your budget.
| Tool | Best for | Free plan? | Pricing starts at |
|---|---|---|---|
| Centenary Day | Routine + meals automation | ✅ | $9 /mo |
| WeightWatchers | Community & ZeroPoint foods | ❌ | $15 /mo¹ |
| Calibrate | GLP‑1 medical coaching | ❌ | $199 /mo² |
| Second Nature | NHS‑backed behaviour change | ❌ | ~$59 /mo |
| Lose It! | Low‑cost calorie tracking | Limited | $39.99 / yr |
¹ Six‑month commitment, then $23/mo. ² Meds billed separately; three‑month minimum.
Centenary Day replaces coach messaging with automation. A five‑minute onboarding quiz produces a personalised Weekly Routine and Nutrition Plan that already respect sleep windows, work meetings, and gym access. Under the hood, a linear‑programming solver squeezes prep time, macro ratios, and grocery cost—all before you click “Confirm my plan.”
Unlike Noom, Centenary Day scores your routine against 40+ lifestyle guidelines (Zone‑2 cardio, strength, circadian rhythm) and shows colour‑coded stars on the schedule. A mobile app syncs reminders, audio lessons, and lab‑test prompts. Free forever tier lets you store two routines; Pro runs $9/month with unlimited plans.
WW’s 2025 reboot adds macro tracking, AI recipe scanning, and a telehealth WW Clinic that offers compounded GLP‑1 scripts. The signature Points® system still lets you eat 350+ ZeroPoint foods—potatoes and oats are back—without logging. Live Zoom workshops and in‑app chat create accountability Noom’s bot coaches can’t match.
Standard Digital plan starts at $15 / mo with a six‑month commitment, renewing at $23. Clinic members pay $74 / mo after the first month, plus medication.
Calibrate pairs board‑certified doctors with a year‑long Metabolic Reset. Members self‑inject semaglutide or similar drugs while completing 1:1 video coaching and habit modules. Published data show 15% average weight loss, but at a cost: $199 / mo for at least three months, and medications can add $350–$1 000 / mo if insurance balks.
Born in the UK and backed by NHS trials, Second Nature assigns a real dietitian coach plus daily peer chat. The program focuses on sleep, stress, and movement as much as food, and its curriculum reads more evidence review than pop psychology. Pricing hovers around $59 / mo, with discounts for six‑month bundles.
Found personalises medication: GLP‑1 if you qualify, oral appetite suppressants if you don’t, or behaviour‑only if you prefer. Membership runs $99–$149 / mo (meds extra). A certified health coach checks in weekly, and the app tracks weight, habits, and mood.
Lose It! Premium ($39.99/year) adds macronutrient goals, sleep import, and AI photo logging (Snap It). While it lacks Noom‑style lessons, community challenges and friends lists boost adherence.
Lifesum’s Clean Eating, Keto Burn, and Mediterranean programs supply daily menus, bite‑sized lessons, and habit trackers. Premium runs ~$8 / mo annually and now supports barcode scanning and wearables.
With 13 million foods and robust community forums, MFP remains the macro king. Premium + removes ads but costs $79.99 / yr.
Nutrisystem’s NuMi app syncs with its meal‑delivery service, logging each entrée automatically. It’s free if you buy food boxes (~$12/day) and tracks water, steps, and weight.

WeightWatchers for community‑based coaching; Centenary Day for full‑stack automation; and Calibrate for GLP‑1 medical programs.
Lose It! Premium averages $3.33 / mo, and Centenary Day’s free tier covers basic planning.
Yes, but you’re limited to coaching messages and daily lessons; meal planning and medication support cost extra.
Second Nature and WW both deliver habit‑change curricula grounded in CBT—often at lower cost.
Noom’s CBT lessons kick‑started a weight‑loss revolution—but rising prices and medication upsells leave many searching for fresh options.
