    I keep seeing people talking about what this app does to people and not how. Kurbo has a dietary tracking system based in reds and greens. Each week you get a limited number of reds that you can consume. At first this app started out at about 40 reds a week and then continually began to decrease getting down to 14 reds a week. Keep in mind reds can be anything from bread to peanut butter. I was obsessed with getting to only 14 reds a week so much so I would only eat some carrots and cucumbers for lunch and then have a small dinner. Luckily, I stopped before it got too bad because my mom found out about me throwing away my lunch at school. I was only 13 and I can definitely see how this app can cause eating disorders and fat phobia. And to the person that said that the community associated with this app is bad and the app is great should think about other people’s perspectives before saying that it’s perfectly safe when in reality it isn’t.

    So when I first get into the app I go to sign up and I cannot when I go to my month it only lets me put in 2 characters so I am extremely mad and that’s why I am calling this app a dumb app and you should not download it
  • As an overweight 13 year old, i approve.

    We got Kurbo to help my oldest daughter (8) learn healthier eating habits without being preached to by us. And to attain a healthier weight. After 3 days, she looks up everything and is so much more thoughtful about what she is eating. My youngest daughter (6) is also joining the fun and looking up “lights”, too. I’m so relieved and excited to have found Kurbo!
  • Amazing!!

    It is a great way to figure out what is red yellow and green and soon you will be able to look back and see how many reds you HAVEN’T ate !!!! If someone offered me a red light normally before kurbo I would take it but not I am turning a lot of it down! I feel so much more confident about n myself and so much happier. It woks almost instantly! It is amazing I am in 5th grade by the way and I used to cry because I hated myself but now I love myself and it is my job to cherish it while I am here on this earth.
  • Such a negative app!!

    Trying to get my child to eat healthier and everything listed has a red color assigned to it. So... candy is the same as peanut butter, crackers, cheese, ham and pasta...?? The only “green” foods are vegetables and some fruits. Teaching kids that foods are “good” and “bad” is setting them up for unhealthy eating habits and eating disorders. We’re switching to a paper chart of fruits and veggies and using portion control.
  • Great app
