GOLO Diet Reviews

I started 9.04.21 and am down 63 lbs. That being said, if unprocessed healthy eating is not your thing or if you think you can use the program like a magic wand in one hand while you order McDonald's with the other then this is not you. There has to be some accountability for your mindset and actions. That being said, the support is incredible and I haven't felt the compulsion to eat in a hot minute.

I actually lost 3 lbs within the first week, but I got really bad headaches the first time taking it. I thought maybe it was just a blow to my system. After I kept taking it, the headaches didn’t stop, they continued and got worse. I had to stop taking them. Just knew this would help. The side effects for me are not worth the headache.

I have been taking GOLO for some time, almost 2 bottles, no weight loss. This is a fad, a waste of money. They promised weight loss and there is none.

Don't waste your time and money. Only works for a short amount of time. When you realize this, you have gone past 60 days for a refund and may even stupidly have bought more so now you are even out more money. Again, don't waste your time and money.

I had to stop taking GOLO Release as it gave me tinnitus. My ears started ringing and my head felt like it was in a vice. When I quit taking the GOLO, it went away. Kind of scary.

Began a health and fitness journey with GOLO in April. Can’t express enough my appreciation for its total program. The full program, including its product. It helped me focus and stay focused on my journey. My results in 6–7 months have been terrific. Thank you GOLO!

I started 12 weeks ago, I pretty much stick to the meal plans and the 2121 system but I do live life, aka cheat now and then. I take 1 Release with my meal and 2 if I’ve made a poor choice. I’m down 45lbs! My sugar cravings are virtually gone and I do not crave soda, which previously was a huge crutch. I view Release as free because my grocery bill is lower because I don't buy garbage anymore. The Facebook support page is top-notch. This works!

Length of Use: 3–6 months

I love following the GOLO plan! You get a lot to eat and it is very easy to follow. Once you realize what foods are in each group, it's very easy to pick one from each food group!

My name is Kim D, I'm 52 years old and have been overweight most of my life. I have dieted and starved myself over the years and lost only to gain the weight back, plus more. There wasn't a day that went by that I wasn't in pain. It was all I could do to go through my daily routine.

I knew I needed to get the weight off and keep it off, but was at a loss what to do. I was sitting at the kitchen table watching TV and the GOLO commercial was on. I thought, what do you have to lose?

So I got on the site, read the information, ordered my kit with the Release, and now here I am, 13 weeks in and have lost 30 pounds. It's unreal how much better I feel, my energy level is up, and I don't take acid reflux meds anymore. I can touch my toes without not being able to breathe, and this is only the beginning of my journey.

If you are looking to change your life for the better, GOLO is your ticket to success. The tools and resources, and the coaches, will guide you along this journey. I can't say enough good things about GOLO and all the support they have given me. Thank you GOLO for changing my life!

I started this a few months ago. I am 63.

On my 4th bottle, I think.

I really did not change my eating habits, as suggested. I have continued to exercise 3-4 times a week - walking, light aerobic. At times, I have lacked discipline for 3 times per day, although this last month improved. I have probably lost 3-5 lbs total, slight fluctuation. I do feel a change in my body and my approach to eating. I believe I have experienced a more balanced mood at times, and a decrease in craving "bad" foods like sugar, etc.

My one suggestion is I would love to see more reviews across the frontier, and a comparison to similar items on the market. Even though there might be minor changes in the formula, it would be nice to see that more products attempt this route. It would give your line more credibility and it would properly inform.

This month I am going to be stricter, and see if I can measure a notable change. I continue to reorder because even though the loss isn't monumental, I feel better. I feel lighter. I feel more balanced.

Side note, in my lifetime I have tried almost everything, so indeed I am a harsh critic.

GOLO has provided a sound and achievable way to lose weight, inches, and above all, energy. Their guidance has been positive and clarification on the guidelines is fantastic. The Facebook group is motivating and the success stories that keep anyone willing to put the effort into eating correctly, really pay off. Thank you!

I've been on GOLO for 3 weeks, and immediately I noticed more energy and I've lost 10 lbs and 2 inches from my waist. I love to cook and the recipes I've tried are excellent.

It has been a learning experience for me. Learning what to eat and what not to eat. I have little dairy, carbs, and no sugar except natural sugar from fruit. I have lost 33 pounds since July, almost 4 months!

I enjoy using GOLO and the Go Digest. Being a diabetic, they help out a lot. I enjoy the veggies, fruit, and cannot forget the recipes and other information.

In June 2021 I saw the commercial for GOLO on TV. It caught my attention when it started talking about helping with insulin resistance. My doctor had just told me a few months prior that I was insulin resistant. She said I would lose weight and gain back the same weight over and over again and that’s exactly what I did for many years. Since having kids 20+ years ago I always carried extra weight.

I started my GOLO Journey on July 1st, 2021 at 320.8 lbs. Right away my cravings for sugary sweets ended, and I started having all kinds of energy. I followed the plan for 30 days and lost 16.8 lbs. This was great! After that my weight loss slowed at times but I was still losing between 1/2 lb to 3 lbs a week, and not once did I ever gain any weight. I was happy with that!

Now, fast forward to October 14th, 2021 and I now weigh 282.0 lbs, I have released 38.8 lbs! I am thankful that I took the chance on GOLO. I can’t say enough positive things about it. They have taught me how to eat properly and that’s what I needed all along! My goal is to lose 120 lbs and to get to 200 lbs. When I started, 120 seemed like such a big number, but now the 82 lbs remaining, feels very possible. Thank you GOLO for helping me reach my goals and becoming a healthier mom.

I lost 19 lbs in 10 weeks on GOLO. It was an easy plan to follow and I was never hungry. I am halfway to my goal and know I will make it there. I exercise for 20 minutes a day along with the plan. I admit I was skeptical at first, but after seeing how easy it was, and the support they give you, I knew I could do it. I no longer have cravings for high-carb foods.

The commercial states that this will curb cravings for sweets, increase metabolic efficiency, assist in hunger control, and that this is the "way to NOT diet." None of those could be further from the truth.

I took this three times a day for months and didn't lose more than 3 lbs. Apparently, there is no way to lose weight unless you actually go on a diet. Possibly, this will assist you but I do not believe that even if you went on a diet while you take this you would lose any more than you would if you just went on the diet alone.

Common sense tells most people that you cannot lose weight without going on a diet and their statement about this helping you lose weight without dieting is just really misleading and untruthful. I should have followed my gut.

After taking it for a week since I got my shipment, which I ordered from online, I have difficulty breathing and palpitations. I dont recommend this product.

Very disappointed, I thought GOLO was a different type of product. I followed the meal plans and exercise regimens with no results. I won’t call it a ripoff but it didn’t work for me.

Started this program over a month ago and was a little skeptical of my achievements. But wow, it's been great. I have now lost 20 pounds and am starting to feel great again. Not much for getting on scales so I do the clothes test. I pull out items in my closet I haven't been able to wear for over 2 years so I am making progress. Also don't have the snacking issue I had. If I eat a meal out I take half of it home with me. Awesome product.

When I did not get my order I emailed customer service and got a reply to contact the USPS. I followed up with a call and the representative explaining that this is not uncommon with the USPS and contacting them would be a waste of time, representative was no help. I would not waste my money on it.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I started with your plan. Took the pills and even used a low-carb diet. I lost about a pound a week. After stopping the low-carb diet and following your meal plan I was losing nothing! I stopped taking your pill and now I have gained more weight than I lost. It has made it impossible to even lose weight now. I was not on insulin. I just thought it would help me lose. It’s just not for me.

I am a 59-year-young woman with four amazing children! Even after my fourth child, I was always thin. Then the word every woman hates happened - MENOPAUSE. Everything just stopped. My metabolism was actually moving backward! I tried every diet under the sun. Nothing. If I took a breath I gained weight! I found GOLO through research and was desperate to try it. Sounded perfect for me! What they didn’t tell you well advertising for their product was how much was involved...strict diet and scoopers and stuff. My diet plan came with the medication release. I am totally committed. I’m ready to put in the work. I’ll let you know how I make out! I’m very optimistic!

Before joining GOLO, I'd tried just about every diet plan in the world and even though some of them helped me lose weight, none of the weight loss experiences were long-lasting. GOLO is different. It's not a diet, it's a health plan designed to bring you back to clean eating and actually changing your health. I have diabetes and as a result of this clean eating plan, GOLO has helped me select the right health choices designed to maintain a healthy blood sugar level. My A1C dropped from 8.6 to 5.5 and my doctor has reduced my medication by over half. The RELEASE supplements are designed to help keep your blood sugar steady and this eliminated both sugar and hunger spikes. I highly recommend GOLO. GOLO is for men and women of just about any age. I'm a senior citizen and it's worked wonderfully for me. It has helped me change the way that I look at food prep and healthy eating.

I followed the guide and lost 0 ounces, 0 pounds. I contacted support and they said I had to contact them in under 60 days to receive my refund...so lesson learned. I took the pills after a few bites of each meal, suggesting it's some sort of appetite suppressor, I even cut down on portion sizes and ate slower, still no weight loss. Save your money, buy something else.

Although they claim a 100% refund if you are not satisfied, they withhold a significant portion for shipping costs. So it costs you to return it as well as their ‘free shipping’ costs.

While struggling with weight gain since childhood, GOLO has transformed the way I eat, the way I feel, my weight and shape, and has transformed my health.

After seeing the TV ads, I began GOLO in late February 2020, with a need to lose 30 lbs. I followed the plan closely and took the Release supplements. By late April 2020, I lost my 30 lb need. I already had an annual physical scheduled with my physician. The results were that all my blood work was improved from the year before, and my doctor took me off my blood pressure medicine.

Additionally, I felt so much better from eating clean, that I have restarted my exercise regimen, which now includes running and cycling multiple times weekly.

For literally the first time in my life, I’m not eating processed foods, no more sodas, and I’ve been learning to cook with the suggested meal plans that GOLO provides.

In every area, my life has been bettered, and I have the experts at GOLO to thank. I couldn’t be more pleased with the way I feel and the way I look.

Like so many of us, I had been on every diet and even though I lost weight on most every plan, when I went back to my old habits, I would typically gain back everything I’d lost and a few more. I always went back to my old eating habits because the diet plans I tried weren’t sustainable. I thought I knew how to eat right and that I didn’t need help from any program. Then I was in my mid-60s with high blood pressure, borderline diabetic, felt terrible and weighed almost 210 lbs, way too much for my 5'2" frame! I figured I’d never be able to lose weight at my age much less get healthier.

Then I saw a segment about GOLO on TV and GOLO member Dawn Duty, who was my age, talked about her weight loss journey. The GOLO spokesperson talked about how the program was developed, all the work that went into developing the program and the Release Supplement. I ordered and I’ve never looked back. GOLO is not a diet for me. It’s a new way of life. It’s healthy eating, balancing proteins, carbs, fats and veggies. You eat whole, natural foods, not prepackaged or highly processed foods. You can eat bread, pasta, potatoes, proteins, things that many plans limit or omit completely. I’ve been GOLO for just over a year and have lost 65 pounds which may not sound like much but I’ve gone from wearing a size 1x-2x (18-20) to size small and 6-8. The transformation in the inches I’ve lost is remarkable. But the best things for me are the health benefits. I’m no longer in danger of needing to start diabetes meds and my blood pressure is no longer in the 190/90 range. This morning after a 3-mile walk, my blood pressure was 112/71! Yes, this former couch potato takes a 2-3 mile walk every day!

Another fantastic thing about GOLO is the support system. There are coaches available to answer questions and help you navigate through the program and there is a Facebook group full of members who love to help encourage each other, offer suggestions, recommend recipes, etc. I am GOLO for life! If you are serious about improving your health and losing weight, I hope you will give GOLO try!
