Fourteen days in, and today delivered more data than any single day of this experiment so far. The hume pod chronic illness report — a feature I had been waiting to unlock — arrived this afternoon, and it is comprehensive, detailed, and in places quite blunt. There was also a morning walk through Cambridge, a…
Monday 13 April 2026 Day 13. Lucky for some, they say. Today the data reflects something I already knew walking into it: the experiment wobbled last night. Late to bed, alcohol involved, knee still tender enough to rule out the gym, and — to add insult to data — the Hume Band ran out of…
April 12th, 2026 — Eufy: 100.90kg. Blood pressure: 134/94. CPAP: 100/100. Regrets: selective. The alcohol effect on blood pressure is one of those things you know intellectually and occasionally choose to know less well on a Saturday evening with good friends, a generous cheeseboard, and a bottle of red wine that turned out to be…
April 11th, 2026 — Eufy: 99.95kg. Sleep: Complicated. Exercise: Rest. Shoot: Done. There is a specific kind of sleep that is neither restful nor wasted — the kind where you are technically horizontal for nine hours but consciously aware of about six of them. Last night was that kind. I switched to the cpap full…
There’s a certain irony in checking your hume band recovery score on a morning when you already know, before you’ve even looked at the data, that last night wasn’t great. I went to bed late, woke up relatively early to meet a friend for coffee at nine, and skipped the scales entirely — which means…
April 9th, 2026 — Weight: ~100.2kg. Blood pressure: 115/73 — 70 bpm. Rest day. No negotiation. Yesterday I overdid it. In my defence, it was a genuinely lovely day — warm, sunny, the kind of English April afternoon that arrives without warning and disappears just as quickly. After the gym, after 13,000 steps of walking,…
April 8th, 2026 — Eufy: 100.2kg. Body fat: 30.5%. CPAP: 89/100. Gym: 22 mins. Knee: Unimpressed. I am going to lead with the thing I did wrong, because that is the point of this series. Last night I was photographing clients from 7:30 to 8:30pm. By the time I finished, packed up, and got home,…
April 1st–7th, 2026 — From 102kg to 99.4kg. From 88% to 97–98% blood oxygen. From chaos to something resembling a routine. This hume pod review will detail my findings. Seven days ago I stood on a set of smart scales at 102 kilograms and watched a device tell me my visceral fat was “Extremely High.”…
April 7th, 2026 — Eufy: 99.4kg. CPAP: 96/100. Bike: 13.29km. Blood pressure: 104/72. There is a specific and somewhat absurd irony in lying awake worrying about whether you will sleep well enough to keep a sleep apnea device on your face. Last night I needed to work late on photographs. By the time I got…
April 6th, 2026 — Eufy: 99.6kg. Hume Pod: 99.8kg. CPAP: 100/100. Gym: 541 kcal. Some mornings you step on the scales and the number stares back at you like a small, quiet victory. 99.6 kilograms. I have not been under 100 kilograms in longer than I am prepared to admit in print. The Eufy says…
