Harnessing the Competitive Spirit The Gameification of Quantified Self

My Name is Chris and I Am…  Impatient  Competitive  OCD  Detail focussed  Obsessive/addictive  A lover of habit

December 31, 2013  139 Kg (21 St 12 Lbs; 306 Lbs)  High blood pressure  Type 2 diabetes  Low energy, motivation & mood  Nothing to wear!

A Better Way?  What factors promote the fastest weight loss in my body?  Can tracking yield data that supports accurate prediction of weight loss based on known inputs?  Can data stop the cycle of loss and regain?

Quantified Chris  Fitbit  Omron body composition scale  Omron BP cuff  NutraCheck  Google spread sheet  Polar HR monitor  Tableau public  My clothes!

The Spread Sheet  Weight (incl. variance to previous day)  BMI  Body fat %  Skeletal muscle %  Calories in  Calories burned in exercise  Visceral fat level  Three daily goals  Daily gratitude  Movies  Books  New music  Music purchases For interest only – no effect on the goal

Ritual  Tracking became a ritual almost immediately  An activity which gives me comfort, joy and, sometimes, dismay  The need for something to record began to drive physical activity  My competitive nature drives achievement so that measurements are improving

Gameification Takes Hold  Tiny rewards of tracking began to mean a great deal  FitBit badges  NutraCheck rosettes  Increasing Kcal burn through exercise  Tweets favourited by family and friends  Encouraging charts made from my data

The Numbers (1 Jan to 17 Apr)  182,613 Kcal consumed  66,141 Kcal burned through exercise  618 average daily Kcal exercise burn  0.26 Kg average daily weight loss  12% reduction in % of body mass composed of fat  6.3% increase in skeletal muscle mass

April 17, 2014  111 Kg (17 St 7 Lbs; Lbs)  High blood pressure  Type 2 diabetes  High energy, motivation & mood  Lots to wear!

What Did I Learn?  The game has become the objective  I enjoy both the game and the ritual of playing it  Weight loss comes as a result of the game and harnessing my competitive nature  No magic formula – yet!
