Hello, I am Swathi Sureddy, a 37-year-old teacher from Hyderabad.
For years, I struggled with post-pregnancy weight gain. No matter what I tried, I was unable to maintain consistency or sustain the results. Slowly, my increasing weight started affecting my confidence and even my health.
I had started experiencing borderline sciatica symptoms, and somewhere deep inside, I knew I needed to take action before things got worse.
That is when I discovered Freedom From Diabetes through Instagram and honestly, it became a turning point in my life.
Today, I am 21 kg lighter, stronger, more disciplined, and far more confident than before.
 
Key Takeaways
  • Reduced weight from 95 kg to 74 kg in 6 months 
  • Completed Fast for Freedom 3 times & lost 4 kg each time
  • Improved sleep quality, skin health, and energy levels

My Health Story

My weight gain started mainly after delivery.

Like many women, I struggled with postpartum weight that simply refused to go away. Along with that, family stress and emotional challenges also contributed to my health issues.

I kept trying different methods to lose weight, but nothing felt sustainable.

Gradually, my increasing weight started affecting my body. I was entering the borderline stage of sciatica, and that became a major wake-up call for me.

I realized I needed to take my health seriously before things worsened.
 

How was FFD introduced and what made me choose it?

I discovered Freedom From Diabetes through Instagram while watching videos by Dr. Malhar.

Before joining the full program, I first tried the Fast for Freedom.

The results shocked me in the best possible way.

Within those fasting days, I started noticing visible changes in my body, energy, sleep, and even my skin.

That experience gave me the confidence that this system genuinely works.

That was the moment I decided to join the program seriously.

Reversal & Transformation Story

Although my HbA1c levels were already in the non-diabetic range, my major focus was weight loss, fitness, and preventing future health complications.

When I joined the program, I weighed 95 kg. Today, I am at 74 kg.

One of the biggest breakthroughs for me was learning proper meal patterns, fasting discipline, how to balance my food during social occasions, and how to regain control quickly whenever my weight fluctuated.

I completed the Fast for Freedom challenge three times, and each time I lost around 4 kg.

Earlier, family functions and outings used to completely disturb my routine.

Now, even if I gain 1–2 kg during vacations or celebrations, I know exactly how to reset my body and maintain my progress.

That awareness itself has been life-changing.

Athletic Identity

Over time, fitness became an enjoyable part of my lifestyle.

My athletic identity is now a combination of:
  • Gym workouts
  • Yoga
  • Surya Namaskars
  • Meditation
  • Structured fasting
I currently perform 54 Surya Namaskars in one go and now aim to reach 108 Surya Namaskars.

Depending on my meal pattern, I balance my workouts accordingly:
  • On lighter eating days, I focus more on yoga and flexibility
  • On regular meal days, I focus on gym workouts and strength training
  • This balance has helped me stay physically and mentally stronger.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection

One of the biggest transformations I experienced through FFD was confidence.

Earlier, I would start health routines but could never sustain them. I would lose motivation quickly and regain the weight again.

But this program gave me something much deeper than weight loss. It gave me confidence that I can maintain my health long-term.

I also noticed better sleep quality, improved skin health, better mental clarity, and greater emotional stability.

Even during fasting, I now sleep peacefully and feel more energetic. Today, I feel much more aware of my body and my health choices.
