Golo Meal Plan: 7 Days of Recipes

The Golo meal plan is intended to promote safe, healthy weight loss and improve overall wellness. Golo is the name of the company that promotes this diet — which specifically addresses insulin in the body and its effect on hunger, cravings, and fat burn. The Golo meal plan is designed to go with the company’s proprietary supplement, called Release. Regular exercise is also a key part of the program.

Here, I’ll share some key features and benefits of the Golo diet, a.k.a. the Golo Metabolic Plan, plus a sample meal plan with recipes. Use this guide to understand what’s involved in the program before you spend your hard-earned dollar on Release. You might even try this diet for a week, to ensure it suits your lifestyle before you outlay any cash.

If you decide to buy Release, your purchase gives you access to Mygolo, an online hub of resources for dieters, including meal plans and recipes.

Tenets of the Golo meal plan

The goal of the Golo meal plan is to regulate the body’s insulin levels. Insulin plays a major role in your metabolism. Changing levels of this hormone in your body can prompt food cravings, encourage overeating, promote fat storage, and prevent fat breakdown.

The team behind the Golo diet suggests that managing insulin is the key to healthy and sustainable weight loss. Without addressing the insulin factor, the theory goes, you may be able to lose weight but you’re more likely to gain it back.

The Golo program seeks to address out-of-whack insulin through these strategies:

• Portion control: The Golo Metabolic Fuel Matrix outlines how to assemble balanced, portion-controlled meals from proteins, carbs, vegetables, and fats.
• Whole foods: The diet leans on whole, unprocessed foods, such as lean proteins, fruits and vegetables, and whole grains.
• Three meals daily plus snacks: Eating frequently throughout the day helps to avoid sugar crashes and the food cravings that come with them.
• No calorie counting: Golo doesn’t require you to count calories. Instead, you balance your food groups using their Matrix.
• Exercise: The plan encourages moderate exercise to complement the dietary changes. The Golo for Life plan includes exercise routines. You get free access to this when you buy Release.
• Release: The Release supplement is meant to be taken with meals to support your healthy weight loss goals by reducing hunger, speeding up metabolism, and enhancing fat burn.

How much weight will you lose on Golo?

The testimonials show people losing up to 10 pounds monthly, with total weight loss of 50 to 70 pounds or more. Keep in mind that a safe pace of weight loss is 1 to 2 pounds weekly. As well, people can respond very differently to weight loss regimens.

What are the other benefits of Golo?

Four noteworthy benefits of Golo are improved wellbeing, loss of abdominal fat, versatility, and the money back guarantee.

Improved wellbeing

Eating smaller and more balanced, nutritious meals will improve your overall well-being. You might feel tired or have a light headache. This isn’t specific to the Golo diet — it’s just what happens when you switch from an unhealthy diet to a healthy one. Exercise helps alleviate those symptoms; Release may support you through the transition as well.

Push through any unpleasant feelings at the start and you should start to have more energy and feel more focused throughout your day.

Targeting of abdominal fat

The Golo diet also encourages the loss of stubborn abdominal fat. You might try measuring your waist at the start of the program. Seeing your waistline shrink can keep you motivated to stick with your diet and exercise regimen.

Versatility

The meal plan can also work for all dietary needs, as it’s flexible enough for modification. As such, you can adjust it to support your keto, paleo, vegan, dairy-free, and gluten-free requirements. Golo can also be modified to suit various age groups, genders, weight classes, heights, and fitness goals.

Money back guarantee

Switching to practical concerns, Golo gives you 60 days to try Release and the program. If the program doesn’t suit you, you can contact Golo for a refund.

Extra Tips

• Always check with your physician before changing your diet or starting a new exercise routine.
• Cook some foods in large batches if you’ll be repeating them throughout the planned schedule. Store extras in portion-sized containers for eating later.
• Drink lots of water to stay hydrated. Fruit juice, tea, and sparkling water are also allowed, so long as they don’t contain artificial sweeteners. You can sweeten tea with a bit of honey. Avoid soda, sports drinks, and other similar beverages.
• Keep fresh produce and whole foods on hand. You want nutrient-dense options for the best results on this diet.
• Stay off processed foods like refined carbs, plant-based meat substitutes, processed meats, crackers, and chips.
• Combine this diet with regular exercise for better weight loss.
• This diet is designed to work with the Release supplement, taking one capsule with each meal.
• Prepare a grocery list of items you’ll need and purchase them before starting. This saves you the effort of constantly going for groceries and makes food readily available every time.
• Adjust the plan for known allergies and sensitivities. If you experience any new sensitivity symptoms, write them down and note what you’ve eaten recently. Test cutting those foods out of your diet one by one to find the source.

Losing weight on Golo

Adopting the Golo meal plan isn’t much different from adopting another healthful food plan, other than the Release supplement. To set yourself up for success, get clearance from your doctor, plan your meals, and shop for groceries with a list. Schedule time in your day for exercising, too.

Check on your progress (via the scale or a tape measure around your natural waist) no more than once weekly. That should ensure you’ll see mostly positive results — which is super motivating!
