Losing weight can seem like an unending struggle, but it is achievable, even for those who aren't eligible or able to try weight loss drugs. Indeed, an app could be the game changer in achieving weight loss goals. One woman has shed two stone thanks to the Simple app , an AI coaching app designed to provide personalised daily workouts, science-backed coaching and nutrition analysis, to assist people in losing weight and feeling healthier. "I have now lost two stone," reveals Kelly Denslowe, who cares for her husband and runs her own business. She decided she needed to lose weight after gaining quite a bit during Covid.

"I noticed that my weight was soaring, and it was at an all time high," she recalls. However, before discovering the app , Kelly noted: "I was looking for a diet that I could try. I did try a couple of the ones that I've done in the past, and unfortunately, it just wasn't working," reports Birmingham Live . After just three and a half months of using the Simple app , she's shed two stones and says it has already transformed her daily life. "It has made my daily life a little bit easier. My pain levels are reduced. I feel like I have got a lot more energy in myself," she shares. Her entire family has also reaped the benefits. "My husband, he's lost getting on for three stones," she reveals. "My daughter, she's still young, growing, but she's lost 10 pounds. So it just shows that it really does work, and it is a lifestyle change and not a diet." Kelly confesses that she hasn't had to give up the food she loves, saying: "We do have treats. We do have desserts. We have that odd chocolate bar. It's not something I have often, but we do have it." By using the code REACH60, shoppers can get a 60% discount on Simple Weight Loss Plans . "I think it's a really, really good app. It's not essential that you go for the premium," Kelly points out, noting that there is a free version of the app, as well as paid subscriptions. "However, the premium is really, really good, especially when you're first starting out. It gives you that sort of push. It gives you ideas of what to do as well. It just keeps you motivated. And I think once you see those results, it will keep continuing to push you to reach that end goal that you want to achieve." For an alternative, there's Noom , a weight loss platform that concentrates on mindful eating rather than restrictive diets. Highly scientific, Noom provides extensive support to users and develops 'fun' personalised programmes for individuals - pricing varies depending on the plan and the person. Alternatively, there's MyFitnessPal - a calorie tracker and BMI calculator designed to help people achieve their goals and monitor their nutritional intake, costing around £15.99 a month, though some free features are available on the app. One customer commented about the Simple app on Trustpilot, where it holds a 4.3-star rating: "I really like this application due to its simplicity. It is intuitive and low demand. I am able to see patterns in my day to day that I can tweak to improve my health. I love the advice and direction that this app provides as well." A second user remarked: "The app helps make it easy for you to eat healthy get in exercise and I love the track hydration tab, it helps me stay on top of my fluid intake." A third person commented: "I love this app! All of the reminders, suggestions and ability to measure everything help to keep track and stay aware of all aspects of getting healthy." Nevertheless, one user noted: "Love the app. The encouraging texts are great. Would like to see more recipes with meat options (chicken, fish, beef)." Another highlighted: "I struggle to stick to weight loss journeys, as I get bored, or loose accountability. With Simple and Avo, my check is make me stay focused, and Avos responses either encourage me, or remind me to make better choices. I am enjoying the experience." Simple is currently 60% off with code REACH60. This is not medical advice. This is a personal experience. Results may vary. Please consult your healthcare professional for any medical conditions.
