12 kg Fat Loss | Rapid Weight Loss Programme | Lifestyle Rebuild
I initially started working with Steve to improve my eating habits. I didn’t expect just how far it would go. What started as a few small changes quickly became a full commitment to his 12-week Rapid Weight Loss Programme, and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
12 kg Fat Loss | Rapid Weight Loss Programme | Lifestyle Rebuild
I initially started working with Steve to improve my eating habits. I didn’t expect just how far it would go. What started as a few small changes quickly became a full commitment to his 12-week Rapid Weight Loss Programme, and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
Over the 12 weeks, I lost more than 12 kg of fat. But honestly, the physical results were just a bonus. The real transformation was mental. Steve helped me understand my habits, take control of my nutrition, and stick to a structure I could actually follow.
What makes Steve different is the way he combines expert knowledge with real accountability. He coached me through every step, checked in regularly, and yes, even gave me the occasional well-timed kick when I needed it.
I’ll admit I hesitated at first because of the cost. But looking back now, it was worth every single penny. The support, education, and personal guidance I received has changed how I approach my health, and it’s something I’ll carry with me for life.
If you’re serious about making a lasting change, Steve at Empower Nutrition is the real deal.

Having lived with type 2 diabetes and obesity for over 25 years, I was utterly sceptical that nutrition could help me. I had tried everything, fad diets, medication, and even a bariatric sleeve gastrectomy. I felt like a lost cause.
Diabetes, Obesity, Food Relationship Recovery
“Having lived with type 2 diabetes and obesity for over 25 years, I was utterly sceptical that nutrition could help me. I had tried everything, fad diets, medication, and even a bariatric sleeve gastrectomy. I felt like a lost cause.
When I first spoke to Steve at Empower Nutrition, I was honest about how broken my relationship with food felt. What I didn’t expect was to be diagnosed with an eating disorder I didn’t even know I had. That clarity alone changed everything.
Steve worked with me to create a structured eating plan based around the foods I actually enjoy, no restrictions, no guilt. For the first time, I had a clear, calorie-targeted plan that didn’t feel like a diet. Just a lifestyle I could finally stick to.
Since working with Steve, I’ve already lost over two stone, but more importantly, I’ve changed my mindset. I feel healthier in many ways, not just physically, but also mentally and emotionally.
Steve’s knowledge, support, and encouragement, even when I had my doubts, have completely changed my outlook. I’m not finished yet, but for the first time, I believe in my ability to get better and stay better.”

My Nutrition Journey with Steve- Empower Nutrition
12kg down in 12 weeks!
At the start of the year, I felt stuck. I was training hard, following my CrossFit program, yet… nothing was changing. My energy was low, I’d crash right after training, and even though sport has always been my safe place, my self-esteem was sinking.
My Nutrition Journey with Steve- Empower Nutrition
12kg down in 12 weeks!
At the start of the year, I felt stuck. I was training hard, following my CrossFit program, yet… nothing was changing. My energy was low, I’d crash right after training, and even though sport has always been my safe place, my self-esteem was sinking.
I told myself, “At least my lifting is going well”, but deep down I was avoiding mirrors and feeling unhappy with how I looked. I’ve struggled with body image before years of listening to other people’s comments left me chasing an “ideal” that wasn’t me.
Then came the moment that changed everything. During one session, Miro took a photo while I was stretching on the floor. I nearly cried looking at it. typical me I laughed it off saying, “I look like a seal”, but inside I knew I needed change. Even now I still look at the photo with discomfort!
That’s when I met Steve (thanks to his amazing wife ❤️). We talked about my diet and lifestyle, and he created a 12 week nutrition plan just for me clear, simple, tailored to my needs. He set my calories, broke down my macros, and gave me food sources to hit those targets.
Within 2–3 weeks, the difference was unreal. I went from struggling with single muscle ups to hitting 20 rounds without breaking a sweat. My runs got faster, my engine improved, and I felt strong.
By the end of 12 weeks, I’d lost 12kg, and by keeping to the plan, an extra 2kg melted away. I did my first individual comp and smashed it fuelling properly meant I could recover and perform at my best across three demanding days. I even hit my fastest 4k run and held pace through every workout.
Steve gave me the plan, but I had to commit. You have to show up for yourself every single day and if you do, you won’t want to go back.
Now, I feel comfortable in my own skin. I wear crop tops without a second thought. I’m proud of my body, not just for how it looks, but for what it can do.
I’m sharing my “before” and “after” to show that it’s okay to feel uncomfortable and that change is possible when you take action.

Thank you, Steve, for helping me unlock my potential .
Here’s to fuelling right, training hard, and loving the process!

As a committed CrossFit athlete, my goal has always been to become a well rounded performer across all disciplines. But balancing demanding training sessions with a full time job made it incredibly difficult to stay on top of my nutrition. I knew this was the missing piece holding me back but I didn’t know where to start.
That’s when I reached out to Steve at Empower Nutrition. At the time, I wasn’t feeling great, my energy levels were low, my gymnastics were suffering, and my self esteem had taken a hit. Nutrition was the one area I hadn’t truly focused on, and it was clearly affecting both my training and my mental health.
From our very first consultation, I knew I was in capable hands. Steve took the time to walk me through my goals, expectations, and what the program would involve. He immediately put me at ease with his professionalism and deep knowledge of both athletic performance and lifestyle balance. He provided clear nutritional guidance and a list of foods tailored to my needs, which made it easy to get started with structure.
The program itself was seamless to follow, thanks to a user friendly mobile app that allowed me to track meals, scan products, and log my own recipes perfect for someone who enjoys cooking. Within just two weeks, I felt a noticeable improvement in my energy levels. My digestion improved, bloating disappeared, and I simply felt healthier from the inside out.
By the end of the first month, I saw major progress in my training. My gymnastics performance had improved significantly, I was building volume, and my weightlifting remained strong. People around me even started to comment on the visible changes in my physique which was incredibly motivating.
Steve also recommended key supplements that enhanced my cardiovascular fitness, and he was always just a message away whenever I had a question. His advice extended beyond nutrition, he helped me understand how my sedentary office job was affecting my daily activity levels and offered simple, actionable strategies to stay more active throughout the day.
Thanks to Empower Nutrition, I now feel empowered and confident in maintaining a sustainable approach to nutrition that fuels both my body and mind. I’m incredibly grateful for Steve’s support it’s been a game changer for my athletic performance and overall well being. And if I ever find myself off track again, I know exactly who to turn to.
I now feel more energised, confident, and motivated in my training than ever before.

The real game-changer was his evidence-based nutrition advice.
As a marathon runner aiming to improve both endurance and performance, working with Steve Lamper at Empower Nutrition has been invaluable. He provided expert guidance on structuring my training plan, including identifying my Zone 2 heart rate and how to safely build running volume. Steve broke down the science of training intensities—explaining how to develop aerobic capacity and improve leg turnover speed effectively.
We also covered resistance and core training, which I now incorporate three times a week. But the real game-changer was his evidence-based nutrition advice. Steve helped me understand how to optimise performance through the right macronutrient balance, protein requirements, carbohydrate types, and meal timing. He even recommended quality running gear that’s made a noticeable difference. I feel stronger, more energised, and better prepared for each race.
