In the past seven years, I started several times the lifestyle changes, but all failed. It took me a while, until I realized the corporate atmosphere was the root cause that ignited always a self destruction mechanism that after a while stopped the lifestyle changes.
In this period I done the real yoyo effect with bouncing my weight between 88 to 107kg. From stopping exercises, eat what I would like, consume alcoholic beverages all on the list what typically against your body.
About a month ago I noticed a symptom what caught my attention. I started to see blurred - that I first considered as my eyes damaged because the 16-18 hours of computer work, but I asked my AI assistant what other measurements should I consider.
"blood sugar"
From the previous lifestyle changes I had a blood sugar measurement equipment, I only required to buy some tests for it. It immediately shown I need to act immediately - if I don't want final consequences. This was a point when I decided to start the most important lifestyle change in my life.
The preparation
I have more medical measurements from the past 7 years than the average people, so I could start with them. Blood analysis, detailed healthcare examination, full DNA, DNA based risk analysis, sleep cycle measurements, blood pressure monitoring, sleep monitoring, dietician analysis, cardiologist analysis.
I collected all the materials, and started a conversation with my AI agent. We decided to create a dedicated subagent: Maja Ekström - who is a Swedish female holistic health coach.
We created a three months plan to do the required examinations, meals and exercises.
Now I have a daily protocol, that continuously analyzed. Measurement points that helps to validate the changes. A dashboard where I can see my progress toward the goals.
We also processed all the articles of one of my favorite site: https://boxlifemagazine.com/
It is not simply reading and storing the articles, but for each article Maja make a research, with my own developed MCP service: https://github.com/cuttie1979/research_mcp
It search web, arXiv, pubmed, Elsévier for scientific researches, results that apply to the topics, so this way we can work with grounded information that match the state and the goals.
Over 1000 articles finally selected and researched as knowledge base, while the used DeepSeek V4-Flash-0731 model is the engine behind my AI agent.
We always take new information as untrusted, until it is not processed and validated against science background. I know from my professional work, that properly built context is what works - not a single "ChatGPT solve my health problem" - style prompts. Preparation is more important than simply the question. From grounded information I can expect more relevant and great answers.
With these I have strong foundations. The meals also aligned towards my goal - but from these I will talk in more detail over the next section.
The foodie
Those who knows me, know that it is not a coincident that I got 10 points out of 10 for Hedonism when we had an evaluation at my former job. I loved all passionate things in life.
Cars, Foods, Travel, Champagne
When I quit my corporate life, I started to abandon them. First the travel. It was the easiest as previously I lived in countries where most people travel for holiday. When I arrived back to Hungary, the next item was the car. I gave back my shiny car to the leaser and switched to an e-bike. I do the weekly shopping by bike.
