What started as a digital experiment turned into a radical health transformation for a YouTuber known for his channel My Life By AI. In a video posted on July 12, 2025, he revealed how using ChatGPT as a personal assistant helped him shed 27 kilograms (about 60 pounds) and regain control of his physical and mental well-being. Powered by a virtual AI coach he named Arthur, the six-month journey was driven by discipline, smart planning, and daily guidance from OpenAI’s chatbot. He credits the system for rebuilding his health and his life.
How AI helped break bad habits and build a weight loss routine
Rather than using ChatGPT for simple queries, the YouTuber integrated it into his entire lifestyle, creating a virtual assistant named Arthur to manage everything from meals and workouts to his creative workflow. Initially, his weekends were filled with fast food indulgences—burgers, fries, beer—leading to guilt and setbacks. But with Arthur’s daily check-ins, tailored exercise prompts, and AI-generated strategies like post-meal walks and craving substitutions, he gradually replaced those patterns with healthier habits.Arthur also planned structured, nutritious meals and offered consistency he had long lacked. Over time, this AI-guided system transformed his health, mindset, and routine, proving crucial to his 27-kilo weight loss journey.
What’s on the plate: Clean, AI-guided eating
Using ChatGPT, he replaced processed snacks with whole foods and balanced meals. His daily diet included:
- Breakfast: Scrambled eggs with Parmesan and toast
- Lunch: Chili beef, rice, and refried beans
- Dinner: Baked chicken, sweet kumara, grilled capsicum and courgettes, finished with Greek yogurt
- This AI-assisted meal planning ensured both nutrition and satiety without guesswork.
Consistency Over Perfection
“The goal wasn’t to be perfect. It was to be consistent,” he said. This mindset, reinforced by Arthur, helped him stick to his routine even on tough days. Whether it was walking several kilometers or logging meals, the AI system reduced decision fatigue and helped create long-term habits.Aside from the physical transformation, the man described notable improvements in energy, mood, and focus. The AI didn’t just offer instructions. It became a support system. By reducing mental clutter, Arthur gave him space to be more present, creative, and resilient.For this YouTuber, AI isn’t just a productivity tool. It is a lifestyle enabler. “Letting AI run my life didn’t make me perfect. But it made me consistent,” he said. His story offers a glimpse into a future where personal health, productivity, and wellness may be deeply intertwined with digital intelligence.
