While we’re all stuck indoors right now, many of us are considering what positive changes we’d like to make in our lives. One such plan might be to try to lose weight effectively but responsibly, so that you end up healthier and fitter once you’re able to head outside again.

One great method for achieving that goal has arrived courtesy of Noom, a mobile application that offers a personalized one-to-one coaching plan that specifically targets where you need help most. Right now, there’s a two-week free trial of the service so you can see exactly how it works for you.

Noom’s key focus is to encourage new healthy habits, rather than simply have you lose weight rapidly through temporary changes. Diets are bad, while lifestyle changes are good when it comes to maintaining a healthier and happier life. Noom has been designed by behavioral psychologists, nutritionists, and personal trainers to ensure it recommends tangible and sustainable lifestyle changes.

It works by generating a personalized calorie breakdown for your daily diet based on exactly what your day consists of, before tracking foods. You can then log exercise, weight, blood pressure and blood sugar, with the application adjusting accordingly. Alongside that, you’ll receive in-app one-on-one health coaching during business hours from an actual human being rather than the A.I.-created notifications you’d receive with other apps. this should keep you highly motivated with the real strength being that everything is focused on you, with an appreciation that we’re all different.

Not only does it help you build healthy habits faster than most diets, it also educates you about how your body works and what different forms of nutrition mean for you. After all, knowledge is power, right? The application also looks at measures to make you fitter on the whole, not just lose weight.

The service ordinarily costs $49 per month which is pricey, until you bear in mind how much personal trainer sessions tend to cost. Even better, right now, there’s a two-week free trial with no risk attached to it. While stuck indoors, it’s an ideal time to give this service a try and see if it makes a difference for you. Noom reckons that its users can lose an average of 18 pounds in just 16 weeks if they follow the plan faithfully.

Starfish-inspired patch solves key issues for wearable heart sensors
Heart rate sensor inspired by Starfish.

The domain of wearable devices has grown by leaps and bounds, not just in terms of mass adoption, but also owing to some astounding innovations. Wearable heart rate sensors can now measure everything from heart rate and blood oxygen levels to ECG in form factors ranging from a watch to finger rings.

These sensors, however, come with an inherent set of problems. Motion artifacts arising from movement or vigorous activity alter the blood flow and affect their accuracy. Optical heart rate sensors (photoplethysmography or PPG tech) also struggle with darker skin tones, tattoos, or even body placement.

You Asked: What’s the most impressive thing you saw at CES?
You Asked CES Editors Cut

On today’s special edition of You Asked, we tracked down each of our editors and put them on the spot to find out what they thought was the most impressive thing they saw at CES 2025 in Early January. Let’s find out what they had to say.
Panasonic Z95B

There’s been some really cool TV tech at CES, but the thing I’m most excited about is the new Panasonic Z95B. Instead of the regular OLED display structure we’ve seen in recent years with MLA technology, this uses a four-layer panel structure. It features individual red, green, and blue layers (two of the latter) for the emissive light.
