This one small switch helped shed 40kg—and it had nothing to do with the gym!

For years, Steve felt like he was trapped in someone else’s body.

He was tired all the time. His knees ached. Walking up stairs felt like hiking Everest.

He’d tried every fad under the sun—kale smoothies, fasting, some sort of soup diet that was probably designed as punishment—and nothing stuck.

When Steve decided he was done feeling tired, unhealthy, and held back by his weight, he turned to something that actually worked*.


Like many people, he struggled with:
  • Low energy
  • Poor sleep
  • Lack of motivation
  • And feeling uncomfortable in his own skin
Then, one simple switch changed everything*. And no, it wasn’t a magical treadmill or some overpriced fitness boot camp.

The turning point? Burn of the Gods*a clean, natural fat burner from Hercules Supplements* that helped Steve wave goodbye to 40 kilos* and hello to a brand-new lease on life.

Not Another Fitness Fairy Tale

Let’s be clear: this isn’t one of those stories where someone goes full action-hero overnight.

Steve didn’t suddenly become a bodybuilder. He didn’t start waking up at 5:00 am to do yoga on the beach. And he didn’t quit carbs and live off air and dreams.

What he did do was make one small change: he added Burn of the Gods to his daily routine*.

After just a few weeks of using Hercules products*—especially Burn of the Gods*, he says: 'Now I’ve got energy…I can go running and bike riding in the afternoons.'

He continued: 'I’m on a mission.'


Why This Worked When Nothing Else Did

Unlike some products that are all hype and no substance, Burn of the Gods* is designed to support people trying to shift stubborn weight*—especially when you're not 25 anymore and your metabolism is moving slower than the Centrelink queue on a Friday afternoon.

Steve dropped 40 kilos—and he credits Burn of the Gods* for helping him finally break through the plateau.

It wasn’t some overnight miracle. But day by day, it gave him what other programs didn’t:

Built to Burn, Not to BS

Burn of the Gods* is made with natural ingredients—no added sugar, no cheap fillers, no weird stuff you can’t pronounce*.

Just clean, quality support that works with your body, not against it.

And unlike some 'fat burners' that leave you busing like a faulty ceiling fan, Hercules designed this formula to give a steady energy boost that’s actually helpful*.

Plus, they offer a Night version—which Steve swears by—that supports your metabolism while you sleep*: 'The new sleep one has been really good. It actually burns fat at night while you’re sleeping.'


Confidence That Goes Beyond the Scales

Sure, losing 40 kilos was life-changing*. But what really mattered to Steve?

Feeling like himself again.

For the first time in years, Steve’s looking forward to taking his shirt off on holidays. He’s ready to enjoy waterparks, summer weather, and show up for his family—without hiding.

'I used to feel like I was too big. Now I’m excited to go to Wet n Wild, take the shirt off, and not worry about what people think.'

He’s not chasing six-packs or selfies. He just wanted to feel comfortable in his skin again*—and show up for the people he loves*.

Real Support. No Gimmicks. No Junk.

If you’ve 'tried everything' and feel like your body just doesn’t want to cooperate anymore, you’re not alone.

That’s exactly why Hercules Supplements* made Burn of the Gods*: for real people who need real support, without sugar, synthetic junk, or unrealistic promises*.

Steve’s favourite flavour? Tropical Punch*.

His favourite result? Feeling confident enough to live life fully again*.

Steve lost 40 kilos. Gained his life back.

And Burn of the Gods helped him do it.

What could it do for you?

I recently worked out what made me put on weight and get diabetes it was too many McDonald's Chocolate Frape. I thought this wasn't as bad as a chocolate shake and how wrong was I.

Apparently it consists of 75% sugar. My daughter showed me an article on McDonald's Frapes and they are really bad.

Best way to lose weight is change your diet. I cut out most breads and dairies

I've lost 40kg as well. I did it in 8 months.
I went from 92kg down to my current weight of 52kg from a size 16 down to a size 8

I also have lost 40kgs, by cutting out most carbs.
 
Click on a link that takes you to their website. Look at the ingredients list. There are things in there I can't pronounce, and yes there are different types of sugars.

Suzanne, you look amazing, good on you, you looked beautiful before, but know you feel better. I have lost 22kg and feel totally different, still a bit further to go. Just used the old weight watchers' diet and the treadmill at the gym. (love your top).
 
In my opinion to lose weight and stay healthy does not come out of a bottle . And it is not a diet either , change to a healthy lifestyle is the way to go . Less carbs and sugar . Stay active , you could join a walking group and it is free or walk with a friend , don’t forget your water bottle , drink 3-4 liters of water daily and stay away from daily alcohol . There are lots of activities you can do in your own home , just look on you-tube .
Join a senior gym class , for free or maybe $5 .-per class and you may new people as well . Go for a bikeride , if you have one , can do a few shops as well , put a big basket at the front , too easy . The options are endless .
 
I lost 14kg in 2 month time just by becoming a carnivore. No sugar or bread and no alcohol and no veggies either. Just animal products like meat, cheese, fish, eggs. Doing it for nearly 1 year now. Never felt better.

Oh my dear Suzanne, how beautiful you look. I do so admire what you have achieved in terms weight lose. I am struggling to shed so much weight, but hearing your achievement, has given me hope, that with determination and a change in my diet, maybe, just maybe, that happier and healthier life is just around the corner for me. Once again Suzanne, you look ever so beautiful and that sweet smile on your face shows how happy and content your heart is. Wishing you a pleasant evening, 🌻🙏🦋
