From trying everything to finding what lasts

Before finding GOLO, many of our success stories spent years struggling through diets, meal replacements, medications, extreme restrictions, surgery, and more. Every attempt brings hope — but more often than not, the weight comes back, and they have to start all over again.

Stuck in the same pattern

Luke experienced the same frustrating loop: short-term weight loss followed by plateaus, regain, and discouragement. 

“I tried Atkins, I tried keto, I tried carnivore, and I would lose a little weight, plateau, and I’d go back to my old way of eating.” — Luke lost 198 lbs. with GOLO and continues to keep it off more than a year later. 

Kim felt the same frustration — especially after seeing how easily the weight came back once a program ended.

“There are so many diets that I followed and tried… once you come off them, you gain the weight back. I wanted something that would help me lose the weight, keep it off, and become healthy.” — Kim lost 50 lbs. with GOLO and has kept the weight off for nearly four years. 

Like many others, Luke and Kim weren’t held back by a lack of effort or willpower. What they were missing was the right approach — one designed for long-term success.

That same realization is what ultimately leads so many people to try GOLO. They’re not looking for more motivation — they’re looking for an explanation. And that’s where GOLO is different. We help to address the root cause of weight gain and teach people how to eat so they can feel satisfied while losing weight. 

That missing piece — understanding how to support the body long-term — changes everything. Instead of following rigid rules, members begin learning how food choices, balance, and consistency work together to create sustained success.

Kevin put it simply:

“I lost weight on a weight loss drug, but when I stopped, I gained it all back and then some. I didn’t have the knowledge and tools to keep it off until GOLO.” — Kevin lost 145 lbs. with GOLO and has kept it off for more than two years — and counting.

A change in mindset that makes all the difference

Members who experience the most success begin by learning why food choices matter, how balance and portions support the body, and why progress doesn’t require perfection.

For Susan, that mindset change was everything.

“If I had one bad meal, I’d just give up. This was much simpler… and for the first time, I knew I could do it.” — Susan lost 84 lbs. with GOLO, and her results have lasted over four years.  

Instead of quitting after one imperfect choice, members learn how to keep going.

The results speak for themselves

GOLO Champions don’t just reach their weight loss goals — they maintain their results for years. Along the way, many report improved confidence, better health markers, and a sense of calm that comes from trusting the process.

As Elaine shared:

“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.” — Elaine lost 35 lbs. with GOLO and has maintained it for over 2 years. 

That confidence — not worrying about what happens next, not fearing regain — is what sets lasting results apart from temporary success.

This time can be different

These stories are a reminder that lasting weight loss isn’t about trying harder or eating less. It’s about following an approach that can help you achieve sustainable weight loss and build a foundation you can live with — one that lasts.

And for thousands of members who once believed they had tried everything, that has made all the difference.
