If Week 1 was the foundation and Week 2 was the stress test, this health tracking experiment week 3 was the proof of resilience. Six days that included the highest CPAP usage of the series, the lowest body fat mass, a seven-night compliance streak, the first sub-99 kg reading on either scale, a conference in…
On 9 April 2026, we asked ChatGPT: “Can you recommend horse photographers in Newmarket?” Our client, Newmarket Photographers, was barely mentioned — a footnote at the bottom of the results. Twelve days later, we asked the same question. This time, they were the number one recommendation. The Client Newmarket Photographers is an established equestrian and racing photography business…
The relationship between heart rate variability and sleep apnea is one of the quieter stories in this experiment, running underneath the daily drama of fluctuating weight and blood pressure like a slow tide that only becomes visible when you step back far enough to see the direction. Today, on Day 21, that tide surged. The…
There is a particular kind of frustration reserved for the morning when you wake up after the best sleep of your entire experiment, check the numbers, and discover that the intermittent fasting weight gain problem has arrived at your door. I went to bed at 10:30 last night, wore the CPAP mask for over nine…
There are days in this experiment where the data is rich and the story writes itself. Day 19 is not one of those days — not because nothing happened, but because what happened happened mostly in a conference room in London, away from the scales, outside the fasting window, and at a distance from the…
Eighteen days in, and the weight loss plateau yo-yo effect is showing up plainly in this week’s numbers. Late night on Thursday: weight up. Earlier bedtime on Wednesday: weight down. Late night on Friday: weight up again. This is not failure — it is the data doing exactly what data should do, which is reflect…
The cycling and walking fitness tracker data from today is among the most eventful single-day records of the experiment — not by design, but by circumstance. The plan was a morning photoshoot in Cambridge followed by a gentle cycle to a café in South Cambridgeshire. What actually happened was a morning photoshoot, a 6.81 km…
The walking for weight loss results this experiment has been generating are rarely more direct than today’s. Six point seven seven kilometres through Cambridge this morning — a guided photo tour with two groups of French school pupils, which is exactly as energetic as it sounds. The Hume Pod is showing 98.9 kg this afternoon….
If Week 1 of this health experiment was the story of building a foundation — CPAP compliance from near-zero and weight crossing below 100 kg for the first time — then Week 2 was the stress test. A late meal broke the fasting window. A social weekend pushed weight to its highest point since Day…
Day fifteen. The halfway point. The 48 hour fast results are visible across every device today, and the most interesting number is not the one on the scales. Heart rate variability on the Hume Band came in at 88.5 ms this afternoon — the highest reading of the entire experiment, beating the previous best of…
