Does lumen work for weight loss?

I've gained some weight since working from home and am looking for ways to shed it. I saw an ad for something called 'Lumen' that claims to help with weight loss. Does this Lumen thing really work for losing weight?

Honestly, spending over twenty thousand rupees on a breathing device is not practical for most of us. You can lose weight easily by cutting down on sugar, reducing oil in your cooking, and walking for 45 minutes daily. Keep it simple and cost-free.

With my late-night shifts, Lumen would probably just scream 'STRESSED AND BURNING NOTHING' at me every morning. It might work for people who have perfect 8-hour sleep and time to breathe into a pipe, but for regular busy folks, it's a bit too much work.

My cousin bought this device to try metabolic tracking. While it provides good data, our family doctor advised that standard calorie restriction and home-cooked meals are safer and more reliable than relying solely on breath analyzers. It is good for tech lovers but not necessary.

I looked into it, but it wants you to blow into it before and after every meal. Imagine doing that at a wedding party before eating pani puri! It's way too restrictive for anyone who actually loves enjoying food with family.

I bought it hoping for a miracle, but it actually just highlights that you need to be very consistent with low-carb days. It works if you have the time to plan your meals perfectly around its data, but for regular daily routines, it can get a bit overwhelming.

The price tag is just too high for what it does. Instead of buying Lumen, you can pay for a full yearly health checkup and a proper dietitian who can guide you according to your actual blood reports. That is a much more secure investment for your health.

Bro, don't stress too much about these fancy gadgets. It basically just tells you to eat fewer carbs when you aren't burning them. You can do that yourself by just swapping your rice for salad or oats. Save your money for a good pair of running shoes instead!
