Noom vs Fhelp for GLP-1 Users: An Honest UK Comparison
Noom launched in 2008. Mounjaro launched in the UK in 2024. That gap matters. If you are paying for a weight-loss app while injecting a GLP-1, you should not be paying for cognitive behavioural quizzes designed for a pre-GLP-1 world. Here is how Noom and Fhelp actually compare for UK GLP-1 users.
Price
- Noom: around £70/month, or roughly £209 for 4 months.
- Fhelp: £29.99/month, 7-day free trial, cancel in two taps.
Built for GLP-1?
Noom’s core product is a colour-coded food psychology course. It was not designed for people whose appetite is chemically suppressed. Fhelp’s targets, meal logging, and protein floors are built specifically around Mounjaro, Wegovy, Ozempic, and Zepbound dosing cycles.
Muscle protection
Up to 39% of weight lost on GLP-1s is muscle. Noom does not track protein floors or strength training. Fhelp enforces a protein floor based on your goal weight and flags under-eating days.
Cancellation and honesty
Noom has been widely criticised (and fined by the FTC in the US) for hard-to-cancel subscriptions. Fhelp cancels natively in the app in two taps. No chat agents, no retention offers.
Coaching
Noom’s human coaching is limited and often up-sold. Fhelp uses AI feedback trained on GLP-1 nutrition research, available 24/7, included in the price.
Verdict for UK GLP-1 users
If you are on a GLP-1 in the UK, Noom is overpriced for what it does not do. Fhelp costs less than half and is built for the medication you are actually taking.
