I lost 100 lb, transformed my health, and created the free Luuze Weight Loss Coach App @luuzeapp to help others do the same. Newsletter:

Here's the Global Edmonton segment about my story! I transformed my health and figured out the unique key to my unique lock, enabling permanent weight loss. Luuze (https://t.co/dWBYX7vzkF) was designed to help you reflect so you could do the same.

When his son was born five years ago, Andrew Luu weighed 250 pounds and had dangerously high blood pressure. Not only has he lost 100 pounds and kept it off, he's also developed an app to help others do the same. @SuLingGoh explains. #yeg #yegfitness #yegfit

@Brogyrl @DianneCallaha16 @DanaStarr18 Really proud of you! This is the same way I lost 100 pounds - the devil can be in the details for some people but once it clicks it works!

Sustainable Weight Loss: It’s Possible and Not a Myth https://t.co/I3H0Ua90Wv

[Lukas Weese @Weesesports]

This is an incredible quote from 🇨🇦Leylah Fernandez discussing the "tears, sweat and sacrifices" to get to this moment of being in the #USOpen final.

A wonderful reminder to never give up and to not let the doubters dissuade you from achieving your dreams:

There’s a lot of truth in this tweet.

However, we can change our environment to make it easier.

Weight = environment + physiology + mentality. (lots of comments in this thread from people with good genes). Change what you can, I did and lost 100 lbs.

[Andrew Luu @andrewluu]

@justinkan I created https://t.co/e7hfL6GLc4 - an app that helps people transform their lives like I did when I lost 100 lbs using simple habit change much like you espouse with kin. How can you help? A simple RT!

I understand saying “food is fuel” and not caring what your food tastes like when in your 20’s

You feel like you will live forever and have infinite meals ahead of you

In your 40s you know your meals are limited

Each one is precious and you damn sure don’t want to waste any

[Andrew Luu @andrewluu]

Yes, genetics matter. But we all have an opportunity to progress towards a healthier weight. https://t.co/3gc0jlDt83

[JT | Jerry Teixeira @jerryteixeira]

I appear to have most of the genetic polymorphisms that predispose one to being obese

Makes sense, I was obese 13 years ago

I am far from obese now.

You can overcome your genes.

Don’t buy into the hype that you can’t change your life/health because of your genes

[JT | Jerry Teixeira @jerryteixeira]

Low carb/keto is a tool
Fasting = tool
Tracking food/exercise = tool
Counting calories = tool
Higher protein = tool

Not all tools are right for all applications (people)

And the wrench doesn’t argue with the screwdriver when the screwdriver is the best tool for the job

[Andrew Luu @andrewluu]

@dvassallo Had a great job but poor health. When I became a dad, I realized I wouldn’t be around to see my kids grow up if I didn’t change.

I used math and behavior to lose 100 lbs and am now living my best life.

Inspired to help others, I created @luuzeapp to so they could do the same.

[Andrew Luu @andrewluu]

@denisjthornton @Sabine_BC Love these even though they cost twice as much for me. So worth it!

[Andrew Luu @andrewluu]

I had the privilege of being interviewed by @CarrieADoll this week on her Inner Circle Podcast - it was super fun and such a honor! Check it out below:

@naval The wiring of an engineer. 1. So, this is how it currently works. 2. It’d work better this way. 3. It’s unacceptable that the world isn’t using the better method, so I’ll just have to create it.

[Robert G. Reeve @RobertGReeve]

I'm back from a week at my mom's house and now I'm getting ads for her toothpaste brand, the brand I've been putting in my mouth for a week. We never talked about this brand or googled it or anything like that.

As a privacy tech worker, let me explain why this is happening. 🧵

[Andrew Luu @andrewluu]

An important thread. If you are struggling with optimizing a diet, try to keep it simple and eat less by putting less on your plate and not getting seconds. You’ll start to fill the plate with more satiating foods (generally healthier foods) naturally.

[JT | Jerry Teixeira @jerryteixeira]

The common dietary thread among all long lived populations is they don't chronically overeat.

In fact, many employ some form of fasting or caloric restriction.

Spending time in energy deficit is likely the most important dietary lever to pull.

Not some magic/super foods
