Bad headaches

By Lashanda S. , Chicago, IL

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.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

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

Pros and Cons

Some weight loss

Headaches

Company Response from Golo, LLC

Mar 9, 2022

Hi Lashanda,

I am sorry that GOLO did not work for you. When you start any new way of eating or supplement, your body can go through an adjustment period and some people may experience mild detoxing symptoms such as a headache in the beginning. Most of the time headaches are caused by removing processed foods, sugar and/or excess caffeine from your diet. Some people don’t go through this at all, and others may just experience a feeling of tiredness for a few days. These symptoms are usually temporary as your system adjusts and are generally from the change in diet rather than the Release supplement.

Release, is all-natural, contains no harmful ingredients, chemicals, caffeine, or other stimulants. It is considered safe to take with medications or supplements and historically has no known side effects. Release helps to balance the hormones that affect weight gain so you can lose weight faster. When taken in combination with the GOLO way of eating, customers report that they have less hunger and cravings, more energy, better sleep, less stress, and an overall calmer demeanor.

GOLO is proud to offer a 60-day Return Policy on all first-time orders. A return authorization has been emailed to you. If you have any questions, please contact our customer support team at support@golo.com

Gained weight as soon as I stopped taking it

By Kay W., Vancleave, MS, Verified Reviewer

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.

Length of Use: 3–6 months

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

Pros and Cons

Product arrived on time

I am not sure if the ingredients turned my fat burning clock off

Company Response from Golo, LLC

May 5, 2021

I am sorry to hear that you gained the weight you lost back. If you were switching from low-carb to the GOLO plan, it could take a bit of time for your body to adjust to a new way of eating so that you could continue your loss. Depending on how extreme a change it was and how long you were doing it, the timeframe for adjustment can vary however, if you stick with it you should see a change and start noticing a loss of about 1-2 lbs per week.

GOLO is designed to be phased out as you reach your goal weight however, in order to maintain your loss you should continue to eat in the balanced way that you learned from GOLO. You won't have to be as strict as you were during your weight loss journey but if you go back to your old ways of eating you will, unfortunately, gain back the weight you lost.

We would be happy to discuss with you how to reorder at a discounted price so that you can lose the weight again if you would like. Just send an email to customer service and we can assist you! support@golo.com

Sincerely,

Eden C.

Weight loss

By Fran P., Rocky Mount, VA, Verified Reviewer

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.

Release works!

By Mark J., Omaha, NE, Verified Reviewer

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!

Not for me

By Alisia R. , Leeds, AL

Length of Use: 3–6 months

Pros and Cons

Company Response from Golo, LLC

Jun 7, 2022

Hi Alisia,

I am sorry that you did not see the results that you were hoping for. GOLO works to restore your metabolic health and depending on a number of factors, this could take a bit of time for some customers. Things like years of yo-yo dieting, health conditions, medications, and age can make the process take a bit longer for some however, once you get there the benefits are great!

If you were following the recommended GOLO way of eating, it would be very hard to gain actual fat weight. Our plan is personalized based on age, gender, lifestyle, and exercise. In order to gain just 1 pound of fat, you would have to consume an additional 3500 calories above and beyond what you were eating before starting GOLO. Although we don’t count calories, it would be pretty much impossible to eat this much and still be on plan. What you were most likely experiencing is normal weight fluctuations. These can be very frustrating but common. We do offer free coaching to all GOLO Customers. I would be happy to coach you if you wanted to continue with the GOLO Plan. If you are interested, please email me at help@golo.com

Feeling amazing!

By Tracy R., Pensacola, FL, Verified Reviewer

I have been taking GOLO for 3 weeks now just because my metabolism has been off for quite some time. I'm prior military and work out on average 3 days out of the week. Since taking GOLO I have never felt better and have since lost 10 lbs slowly. GOLO does work, if you control your plate and eating habits. I'm not as hungry anymore and have absolutely no cravings and my concentration is so much better now and I sleep soooo good at night now! I am looking forward in the next two months to see how much more I'm going to lose. Thank you GOLO!

A life-changer

By Kim D., Mount Vernon, KY, Verified Reviewer

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!

Hi, I am sorry that you did not see the results that you were looking for. When followed as directed people start seeing weight loss somewhere between the 2nd and 4th week with an average loss of 1-2 lb. per week. The Release supplement works to help regulate the hormones that affect weight gain so you can lose weight faster and our eating plan actually teaches you how to eat not only to lose weight, but also explains how to maintain once you get to your goal.

Without more information on how you were following the program, it would be hard to pinpoint why you felt it stopped working for you. We offer free support and coaching to all GOLO customers. I would be happy to set you up with a coach so that we can speak in more detail and try to get you back on the road to your ultimate weight loss goal. Please reach out to me if you are interested at help@golo.com

I'm a believer of GOLO

By Catina F., Denver, NC , Verified Reviewer

GOLO proved to me that it actually works and is a real-life change experience, not just a fad diet. With the help of Eden and Jamie, my FREE coaches that were awesome and able to help me create my delicious everyday meals. It was foods that I didn't have to buy and I had already in my pantry and fridge, that was even better! My overall experience from the Release to Customer Service to coaching has been amazing! I even recommended it to my aunt who is excited to try it.

You have to put in the work!

By Nacole M., Westport, NY, Verified Reviewer

I keep seeing reviews of people quitting after a few days because they "feel jittery and sick" and "didn't lose any weight".

First of all, the whole point is so that you change your eating habits over time, you are making a whole lifestyle change! This does not happen quickly, and just because you are taking the Release capsules it doesn't mean you won't have any cravings and you are going to lose weight right away, you have to put in the hard work to change your habits.

Also, there are no stimulants in the capsule, so if you're feeling jittery and sick, it's most likely because you consumed something else that made you feel that way.

I think the program is great! I was so confused as to what to eat and I was jumping from diet to diet. It's been a little over a month and I am starting to notice that I'm having more energy, and yes, I have lost a couple of pounds and I have a long road to go still. But you can actually call and talk to a real person when you need support! What other diets do that? I mean really, they give you all the tools but if you don't put in the work you won't see any results! It's as simple as that!

Do not buy GOLO

By Robert R., Seattle, WA, Verified Reviewer

Once I received my order I began the program. I keep track of my weight each day. I walk 1.5 miles each day, I also go to water aerobics at the YMCA three times per week. I monitored my food intake as the program requires that I do.

After 45 days I went ahead and ordered another 60 days' worth, even though I had not lost any weight. At 75 days or so of taking the GOLO I still have not had ANY weight loss.

I called customer service for a refund. They of course advised me that ONLY my initial order was eligible for a refund and since that was past 60 days I would not get a refund.

I can't say the effects this may have on other people but it did NOT work for me at all. I would have to advise people considering weight loss options to look elsewhere for help. While the product has not appeared to be harmful to me yet it certainly has not been helpful in any way.

I will be reporting my findings to my doctor at the next appointment. I will also be leaving reviews according to my experience!

Hi Robert,

I am sorry that you did not see the results that you were hoping for. Based on what you wrote in your review, it is hard for me to determine whether you followed the GOLO for Life Plan or followed your own way of eating. Many times, we find that when customers are trying to lose weight, they don’t eat enough food and this can make it harder to lose weight. This is why the GOLO Plan was created, it ensures that you are getting enough food to fuel your body AND burn fat during the weight loss process. Because you are so active and also a male, we recommend that you add extra servings to your meals. If you were not adding this additional food to your daily meals this could be the reason that you did not see results.

I would like to speak to you in more detail to see if I can assist you further. I am sending you an email to the address to the email address that you provided.

Hi Paul,

I am sorry that you are disappointed! GOLO is not a quick fix, fad diet, but rather one that will work to get your metabolism back in balance. Depending on how you ate before and past dieting efforts. plus your age, medications, health issues etc., it may take a bit of time to get everything back into balance before you start seeing results on the scale. But that balance is the key to losing, getting healthy, and maintaining long term. Some people will lose inches first. A couple of ways that you know that the plan is starting to work for you is if you have more energy or are sleeping better.

We do offer free coaching to all GOLO Customers. If you are interested in working with a coach, please reach out to me at help@golo.com and I would be happy to help you.

Still undecided, but trending positive...

By Michelle L., Danville, CA, Verified Reviewer

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 really works

By Brenda W. , Leland, NC

Golo has been a life-changer for me. Started it on August 1st, 2021 and it took me three months to lose 25 lb going exactly by the meal plan. When Christmas came I did cheat some but I did not gain any weight. I finally started losing weight again in February 2022 and now I am down 32 lb.

This is the best plan I've ever been on. I have less gas my blood pressure has gone down I am off of my diabetic medicine and I feel so much better looking forward to losing another 25 lb in the next 3 months. It is slow but slow is better than nothing at all. I do recommend this plan if you are only willing to change the way you are eating and start eating healthy.

Hi Laurie,

I am sorry that GOLO did not work for you. Our supplement, Release, works to help regulate the hormones that affect weight gain so that you can lose weight faster. We know that it works because we recently conducted a study on this subject. In this study there were 2 groups of people-both of them followed the GOLO plan, but one group took Release and the other took a placebo. Both groups lost weight, but the group that took Release lost 79% more weight than the placebo group in the same period of time.

I hope that you will reconsider and give the GOLO Plan a try. But if you decide that GOLO is not right for you, we do offer a 60-day money back guarantee that begins on the day that you receive your order. Should you decide that you would like to return, please send an email to help@golo.com

Nothing new or compelling

By Bobbi C., Colorado, Verified Reviewer

The GOLO weight-loss plan is, on the face of it, an effective and safe plan. However, it offers nothing new from other plans that advocate healthy eating and exercise. The "Release" supplement contains ingredients that may have some health benefits but the company offers little information regarding clinical studies that demonstrate the efficacy of the supplement itself to promote weight loss over and beyond the healthy eating and exercise recommendations.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Provides safe and health information regarding emotional and other issues that affect eating habits

From your review, it is hard to tell if you actually tried Release or the GOLO for Life Plan for any period of time. On average, when followed as directed, our customers report a loss of 1-2 lbs per week and usually start seeing a loss sometime within the first 2-4 weeks.

Doesn’t work for me

By Connie M., Columbus, OH, Verified Reviewer

I purchased it to help with sugar cravings and snacking. I eat my three meals a day as always but have a big urge to munch on sweets. I can’t bring these foods into my home or I would go nuts. GOLO has done nothing for me.

Length of Use: 3–6 months

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

Didn’t help with sweet cravings

Hi Connie,

I am sorry if you have not seen the results that you were hoping for. Release helps to balance the hormones that affect weight gain so you can lose weight faster. When taken as directed, in conjunction with the GOLO for Life Plan, customers report that they have less hunger and cravings, more energy, better sleep, less stress, and an overall calmer demeanor. Without knowing what you were eating, it is hard for us to determine why you continued to have sweet cravings however, in most cases this is caused by the other foods you are eating (or if you are not eating enough).

We do offer free coaching to all GOLO customers if you are interested in speaking with a coach in more detail.

Not for me

By Concetta R., Jensen Beach, FL, Verified Reviewer

I read the booklet, prepared several meals for the week, which were good, but hot flashes and a sluggish feeling were felt. Please do not blame it on menopause; I am 65 and have been over that for over 15 years. I called for a refund, which I received very quickly, and was not asked to return the product. This is not for me. I know how to portion my meals and eat right, no pill necessary. I am giving 3 stars because of the outstanding customer service, but I do not promote the product.

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Hi Concetta,

I am sorry that you felt GOLO was not right for you, but I am glad that you were happy with the return/refund process.

GOLO is a two-part system that contains the Release supplement and the GOLO way of eating. Release works to help regulate the hormones that affect weight and metabolism so that you can lose weight faster. The GOLO eating plan ensures that you are eating enough food in the correct balance to support fat loss and ensure that you are not losing muscle.

When you start any new way of eating or supplement, your body can go through an adjustment period and some people may experience mild detoxing symptoms such as what you mentioned. Some people don’t go through this at all, but if it is noticed, typically it only lasts for a few days as your system adjusts.

If you have any additional questions, please reach out to support@golo.com

Great program, easy to follow

By Arin P., Louisville, KY, Verified Reviewer

I'm very happy with GOLO, it's really opened my eyes to how and what I was eating before. GOLO has really helped me with my cravings for junk food and now when I want something sweet I have healthy options to chose from.

I now know how to prepare meals that are nutritious and delicious for me and my family.

The GOLO group is very supportive and has all kinds of resources and information to help you along the way, which has been super helpful.

I think the best part is that this isn't really like a diet because you still get to enjoy all types of different foods but in a much healthier way.

I would definitely recommend the GOLO lifestyle for anyone who is like me and just felt stuck or has already tried many different dieting methods with little or no luck because this has been a game-changer for me. And it's so easy to follow!

Length of Use: Less than 3 months

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Pros and Cons

Very supportive

Easy process for ordering

There's no hidden agenda, it's truly about helping people get healthy

I wish I could get a recipe book with all the recipes so I didn't have to print them out

An updated app would be nice
