IMO, the coach is helpful for questions in the very beginning, so maybe it is required for the first month; and then when you continue on, there should be a discounted version. The daily weigh-in and language used on app is not very healthy. ### 2/5 — App not user friendly. *2024-04-01, version 1.4.33* Repetitive meals. Have not changed since I tried this program 2 years ago. Yawn. Hard to customize meals so it feels like lying if you don’t have an exact meal as described. Platform is weak, kept crashing the first few days. Just not user friendly. Needs a big update. ### 3/5 — Inaccurate *2023-08-09, version 1.4.32* App changes the menu for the day which messes up the whole days metabolism. It showed a day protein meal plan for breakfast and lunch, but then switch to an entire different day in the evening ### 2/5 — Glitches with messages *2023-03-22, version 1.4.29* Was working beautifully, and keeping me on track. All of a sudden, I can’t message my coach or open her messages to me. If I can’t do that, it’s not worth the money. ### 3/5 — Frustrating *2023-01-09, version 1.4.27* I’m very happy with food fuels overall, except I find the search feature on this app very frustrating. Searching for meals or foods that you know are there shouldn’t be as difficult as it is. You should be able to put in an ingredient and every recipe with that ingredient should be there ### 5/5 — FoodFuels works! *2022-11-02, version 1.4.26* When I personally experienced the difference in my mental and physical health while using the Food Fuels program, I knew I wanted to continue on with it. It is such a healthy reasonable way of life, and totally sustainable long term The app is easy to use and extremely intuitive The coaching is great! My favorite part of the app is the shopping cart. It’s awesome! FoodFuels has changed my entire way of approaching nutrition! ### 5/5 — Fabulous *2022-11-02, version 1.4.26* FoodFuels app makes my shopping easier. The filter to search recipes is the best ### 5/5 — BEST Weight Loss program & Coach *2022-10-16, version 1.4.25* Darci Williams is the most fantastic coach to have on this outstanding weight loss plan. She offers more than a 2-word daily response. Darci’s daily input is thoughtful, positive, knowledgeable, encouraging, and valuable for journey to success! Since Darci is a 5-star professional Life Coach, she is the BEST COACH to select for losing weight—- forever! ### 3/5 — Not user friendly *2022-08-21, version 1.4.24* Many of the glitches others mentioned are part of the reason I won’t continue FF. 1) The grocery list is for the entire week. You can’t choose days. This is horrible for city people who have to carry their groceries. I have to click on each meal and write my own list. Very time consuming. 2) When I’m planning meals, it repeatedly takes me back to the current day. So if today is Sunday and I’m planning to replace a Tuesday meal, once chosen, I’m taken back to Sunday instead of staying on Tuesday. 3) Meals 3 and 5 sometimes are defaulted as “Meal prep leftovers” and there are no options to replace even with cleared filters. Some of us don’t have leftovers because we are cooking for more than one person! 3) When replacing meals and wanting to see more options, they’re added at the top of the page, but the button to load more is at the bottom so once you’ve seen them, you have to scroll all the way back down again and then back up to see the additions. There should be more meals visible with smaller pictures on a page and a list of options so that it doesn’t take forever to load. Overall, the concept of FF is great but the app and site design are in need of some desperate help. ### 3/5 — Unable to edit. *2022-06-21, version 1.4.23* It needs to be edit friendly if changes are required. ### 5/5 — Food Fuels…Life changing !! *2022-04-18, version 1.4.22* In just 10 weeks I lost 20 lbs and not only do I look great- I feel amazing! So healthy - a plan for life !! This WORKS!! ### 5/5 — Fueling for Life *2022-04-08, version 1.4.22* What a great program and the developers of the app continue to make improvements consistently. I find the app simple to navigate. The ease in switching for comparable meals gives flexibility to the program and the app. I love FoodFuels! ### 5/5 — Foodfuels *2022-04-08, version 1.4.22* Foodfuels is diet that works! The app is so helpful and easy to use. The meals are simple and delicious! ### 5/5 — Finally! I’m staying at a healthy weight! *2022-04-08, version 1.4.22* I finally found a diet I can stay on without feeling deprived or hungry. It’s life changing, to be able to walk into my closet and not have to worry is this going to fit? The plan is easy to follow, I’m never tired of making the recipes, they are constantly adding new meals that quickly become favorites! My coach helps me navigate the app, motivates me to stay on track, gives me tips and support. I have tried every diet in the past, this is by far the best! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Struggling *2025-02-21, version 1.5.4* I’m post menopausal (60) and find the program is not enough macros and I don’t feel well. Too low in calories, protein and fat for me. Still very hungry after 8 weeks causing chronic sleep disruption, irritability, headaches and dizziness. Lost 4 lbs initially but not budging since. The coaches insist to not count calories or macros and just to follow the program. But I use fitness pal anyway to try and figure out why I feel so poorly. It is definitely not enough for my body and brain causing unpleasant side effects. I hope the founder(s) could refine an option for us menopause ladies. ### 1/5 — ExpensiveApp should be better *2024-12-08, version 1.5.2* I find this diet to be effective. This costs 150/month. For this money, the app should be a lot better. I am not able to customize the times that I was given by coach in the app. This created confusion for me at the beginning. Some of the recipes are very vague. What type of avocado?? Hass or regular? The shopping list lists are awful. If the name of an item is long , the last part will get chopped off. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2024-02-27, version 1.4.33* Today is day 10 FoodFuels. I have not had the support. I paid 150 for me to do this by myself. I could have saved my money and continued to be my own support person. Tried to use contact button and I get error. Hopefully my money can be refunded. ### 1/5 — Don’t do it *2022-06-30, version 1.4.23* This app is not good. Don’t waste your money like I did. They don’t care if you can use the app or not. It’s a one size fits all approach to meal planning and you cannot mold it to fit your lifestyle or food preferences. ### 1/5 — This program is going to cause eating disorders *2022-05-07, version 1.4.22* Daily weigh ins with coaches who don’t understand that weight fluctuates day to day and only comment when the scale goes up is straight up asking for an eating disorder. Also the science behind this diet is iffy at best. Eating a carb with a protein or a carb with a fat is not what causes weight gain… also this diet has me eating about 2000 calories lower than my maintenance calories. I’m about to report this to the BBB too ### 1/5 — Overpriced *2022-04-13, version 1.4.22* Fortunately I will never know how good this app is because I refuse to pay $400 for only a 90 day subscription are you kidding me that is a joke and is price gouging at best ### 1/5 — Wasn’t great before now it’s horrible *2021-03-11, version 1.4.13* Honestly, the app before was junior and a bit sketch in the UX\UI but adequate. After the update two weeks ago, I’m pretty sure my 14 yo could build a better app. Full lines of foods are unavailable making the already limited choices even worse. Still no way to add custom options. And the navigation selector doesn’t seem to work. The diet is fine but send your move on Noom or use my fitness pal. This is crap for the money it costs a month. I’d ask for a refund if I thought I had a chance to get it. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2021-03-11, version 1.4.13* This isn’t for everyone. Really research the diet before paying. Wasn’t fond of program. ### 1/5 — Do NOT sign up! *2020-12-28, version 1.4.12* This “company” has awful customer service. This is a gimmick. They just want your money and do not work with you. If you do not like flexibility of when you can eat then this is not for you. They do not mention that in the program and when you sign up you are stuck. This is a joke of a company! ### 1/5 — Very unreliable!! *2020-06-06, version 1.4.2* Great diet but the mobile app is very unreliable and disappointing. It is quite often not working where the menus can not be searched if you want to change your daily meal. When in the app it just closes when searching it bumps you back to the top automatically for no reason. They really need to do a system upgrade. For the monthly price this should work much better. If this isn’t working as expected why sign up? This is the tool that is essential to the program. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Trusting in the process to achieve success *2026-04-12, version 1.5.7* I have been leveraging the resources in food fuels to achieve my goals over the past 3 months. My coach has been an amazing support as well as being realistic with me. Together, I have been able to reshape how I relate to food and learn the importance of eating small amounts of the right combinations of food to get my metabolism working FOR me. The emotional eating is behind me and I am grateful for the resources that I have been exposed to in order to achieve success. Weight loss is a journey that takes time and allowing myself the grace that was necessary played a key role. My coach has been one of my biggest cheerleaders as we celebrated even the smallest victories. The recipes are numerous and always found something I enjoyed. ### 5/5 — Love this program! *2025-10-17, version 1.5.7* I wasn’t eating regularly or cooking much due to grief from losing a loved one so my doctor recommended FoodFuels. I’m so glad she did! Within 5 days, I’ve noticed I already have more energy. I’m actually taking the time to cook now and the recipes are delicious!! And my coach is so supportive and answers all my questions. I feel eating Whole Foods is an investment in my health and well being and highly recommend this program to friends and family. ### 5/5 — Over 75 pounds lost *2024-09-09, version 1.4.36* This is the only program that has worked for me. The key to this program is the coaching. The support from my coach and accountability is just what I needed. Once you get the hang of the new way of eating it’s relatively easy and sustainable. The recipes are simple and quick, there is nothing to buy except for regular whole foods that you can get at any supermarket. FoodFuels has literally changed my life. I feel amazing, I’m more physically active, I look good in clothes, my skin is better…just everything I love it. I’ve lost 75 lbs in about 7 months and have maintained it through the summer months. I signed up for a 5k run in the fall and can’t wait to go skiing this winter. I haven’t had any problems w the app on my iPhone and I find it super easy to navigate. If you put in the work you’ll reach your goal I have no doubt! ### 5/5 — So far so good *2024-01-16* My first week went very well and I find the app easy to navigate. I agree w other reviewer about the shopping list and changing leftover meals but it’s nots a big deal to me. I’d rather take 5 minutes and write down a list than be fat 😂 ### 5/5 — Deb Hollister *2024-01-12, version 1.4.33* This has been an amazing journey. Never has a program worked for me like FF. NEVER!!! I have learned so much and will implement the healthy eating principles for the rest of my life. I lost 30 lbs. and my husband lost 25 and he cheated a lot!! My coach Kim was amazing! She was everything I needed! Thank you Food Fuels. I have every confidence that myself and my other family member who have utilized FF will continue to lose or maintain our healthy weight for the rest of our lives. With Gratitude I Exit. ### 5/5 — Best diet ever! *2023-03-18, version 1.4.29* Food Fuels has become a positive life changing experience for me. I have tried every diet there is and have only been successful this Food Fuels. It has taught me that, combining different food categories actually is detrimental to weight loss. The science is everything! My coach, Ann McNally, has been my rock with this eating experience. So positive and reassuring. ### 5/5 — Best plan and great coach *2022-12-12, version 1.4.26* Super easy to follow and Laurie Saurman is an incredible coach. She really cares about her clients. I love how it’s real food and that it’s simple and delicious recipes. I look forward to each recipe and I love learning new cooking options! The meal prep is key! ### 5/5 — Life changer *2022-11-03, version 1.4.26* After trying every diet imaginable, I found Food Fuels which soon became a way of life. I lost 50 pounds and even better is that I have maintained it for over 9 months! The app is super easy and tech friendly, food is found at the grocery store so it’s clean eating, coaches are amazing and encouraging! It changed my life! Best weight loss program out there! ### 5/5 — Great program *2022-11-02, version 1.4.26* This has been a remarkable program for weight loss and for learning how to eat to maintain the weight loss. ### 5/5 — Helpful tool *2022-11-02, version 1.4.26* Love all this app features! Menu, tracker, recipes and more! Foodfuels is the best! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
