Thanks to GOLO, Gina is able to practice what she preaches

In the summer of 2022, Gina was shopping for jeans, but couldn't find anything she liked that would fit her. Frustrated, she got on her scale and was shocked by what she saw. She weighed almost 200 lbs., which was heavier than when she had her children. She knew something had to change but didn’t know where to turn.

“As a nurse, it’s important to me what I put in my body. I didn’t want any part of weight loss drugs that would make me feel sick or try to tell me not to eat. I wanted to be a healthy person overall, not just a skinny one.”

One night, while watching TV, Gina saw a GOLO commercial and was intrigued. After talking to a nutritionist and doctor, she felt confident in her decision to try GOLO and Release®.

“When I first looked into it, I really did my homework. I looked up all the ingredients of Release and made sure it was a healthy, safe choice for me.”

Within a week of starting GOLO, Gina noticed a lot of positive changes. She felt better, had more energy, and her snack cravings disappeared.

“The main difference with GOLO compared to other plans I’ve tried is that I felt good. I wasn’t hungry all the time, I didn’t feel miserable. It was first time I ever felt like I could stick with the plan and not only lose weight but keep it off.”

What Gina liked about GOLO was that it laid everything out for her. Instead of wondering where to start, the GOLO Plan gave her a framework for how to create healthy meals with foods she already liked.

“Ever since I started GOLO, my relationship with food has changed so much. Food used to be the enemy. Now, I know how food works with my body.”

Since she’s lost 53 pounds with GOLO, the improvements in Gina’s health have made a world of difference, especially at work.

“As a nurse, part of my job is talking to people about their weight and making healthy choices. It was hard for me to tell patients what to do as an overweight person. Now I practice what I preach and can talk to them genuinely about something I know because I’ve done it.”

Gina didn’t just meet her goal, she surpassed it, which has helped to improve her confidence. She feels younger, loves how she looks, and is finally back to enjoying clothes shopping.

“I’ve gained so much confidence. I feel happy and I’m not worried about going clothes shopping anymore. In fact, I love it. One of my first non-scale victories I had was having to go to the store and buy smaller-sized jeans. That was amazing. I was over the moon.”

When asked what she would tell other people who are interested in GOLO, Gina had a lot of encouragement to give.

“I’ve been dieting for half my life, and each time I tried, I would quit. But GOLO is a completely different approach to losing weight and it works. It changed my life, and it can change yours, too.”
