After a simple bet with his brother lit up his competitive spirit. That challenge didn’t just transform his body, it reshaped his entire approach to health, work, and life.

A filmmaker with a zest for adventure — from skydiving to windsurfing, foiling to filmmaking — Andrew brings passion to everything he does. But after relocating to the United States for a marketing role, the supersized meals and fast-paced lifestyle caught up with him, and the weight piled back on.

This wasn’t the first time Andrew reinvented himself. He’s gained and lost weight multiple times, each time uncovering new insights into discipline, fasting, and resilience.

In this episode of 100 Pounds to Freedom, we explore:

How a brotherly bet sparked his 45-pound weight loss

What he tried — and what really worked

The power of intermittent fasting

Why cutting back on alcohol changed his progress

How he uses sleep as a superpower

The lessons from reinventing himself again and again

Andrew’s story is a reminder that transformation isn’t a one-time event — it’s a journey of resilience, adaptation, and rediscovery.
