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…
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…
