From Frustrated Dieter to GOLO Lifer

Like a lot of struggling dieters, Elaine felt like she tried everything to lose weight but found nothing that worked for her long term. She would experience a few months of success only to regain what she'd lost and then some. 

Elaine felt groggy, her clothes didn’t fit, and she avoided being in pictures. With a trip to Hawaii to celebrate her daughter's birthday on the horizon, she knew things had to change but felt like she was running out of options.

"It seemed like everyone I knew was talking about injectable medications, but I only saw those as quick fixes, not something that is sustainable. I wanted something natural."

When Elaine learned about GOLO and Release^®, she felt like our natural, holistic approach to weight loss was just what she’d been looking for. And it didn’t take long for her to notice a difference between GOLO and other programs. Not only was the Plan easy to follow, but eating GOLO-friendly meals didn't leave her feeling hungry or like she needed to snack throughout the day.

"When I lost weight on other programs, I felt very depleted. But with GOLO, I felt happy and healthy. I'd make GOLO-friendly meals and my husband would say, 'Wow, that's what you're eating? That's a huge portion.' And that's the beauty of GOLO. You aren't starving yourself and you aren't deprived."

As her weight continued to drop, Elaine experienced victories off the scale. And when it was time for her dream vacation to Hawaii, Elaine made the most of the experience thanks to her new-found confidence.

"On my Hawaii vacation, I was able to go to the beach and not wear a cover-up over my bathing suit, and I was front and center for all the pictures. It was a very memorable trip, and I gained a lot of self-confidence because of GOLO."

By fueling her body naturally with healthy and hearty meals, Elaine actually surpassed her goal weight by ten pounds. She lost a total of 40 pounds and hasn't been shy about helping others share in her success.

"We had a family get-together, and everyone was saying how great I looked. I told them about GOLO and one of my husband's cousins actually ordered it while we were still at the party!"

Elaine feels incredibly proud of what she’s accomplished. Now that she’s back to feeling happy and confident, she knows she can rely on GOLO long-term.

"I know I can do this for the long-term, and I trust that I'm not going to gain the weight back. I am a GOLO lifer now, for sure."
