My Diabetes Story -My 27-Year Diabetes Struggle
I’m a homemaker, and my unexpected diabetes journey began in 1996 after severe abdominal pain led to a diagnosis. Despite no family history, I was put on oral meds, which later escalated to insulin in 2005 due to poor sugar control.
For nearly 19 years, I lived on insulin. In 2023, a typhoid episode worsened my health — I developed severe leg pain, fatigue, and was later diagnosed with osteoarthritis. Climbing stairs became impossible, my energy crashed, and life started to feel like a constant struggle.
How was FFD introduced, and what made me choose it?
Then came a turning point — my husband’s cousin, Mrs. Pratima Kasbe, an FFD mentor from Karnataka, shared her inspiring recovery story. Once needing support just to walk, she encouraged me to join FFD, assuring it could change my life. Motivated by her journey, I enrolled in FFD’s Annual program -HTP.

Reversal Story
In just 8 days of following FFD’s protocol, I stopped insulin completely — something I never imagined! My energy soared, I felt lighter, walked pain-free, and no longer needed afternoon naps. Even others noticed the change.
My HbA1c dropped slightly from 7.7 to 7.6, even after stopping insulin and reducing meds. I have also lost 9–10 kg, bringing my BMI to normal. Though I haven’t fully explored my athletic identity yet due to personal constraints, I have started yoga and am building consistency.
I stay committed to the FFD protocol — diet, hydration, sleep — and rely on the app for quick support. Years of insulin and emotional fatigue had drained me. FFD helped me reclaim control over my body and mind.
I am truly grateful to Dr. Pramod Tripathi, the FFD team, and especially my cousin and mentor, Mrs. Pratima Kasbe, whose guidance led me here.
