My Diabetes Story
My diabetes was detected unexpectedly after I developed a fungal infection.
When I visited a urologist, he suspected high blood sugar and asked me to get my tests done.
The reports came as a complete shock. My HbA1c was 12.7.
Unlike many others, I didn't have a family history of diabetes.
However, I had survived a devastating bomb blast nearly twenty years ago and had undergone 13–14 major surgeries, along with prolonged treatment involving steroids, painkillers, and several other medications.
Over the years, my sedentary lifestyle, long working hours, constant travel, and high work stress gradually took a toll on my health.
Looking back, I realized diabetes didn't happen overnight; it was the result of years of neglecting my health.
How I Was Introduced to FFD
My introduction to Freedom From Diabetes came through a close friend, Ameya Keni, who had successfully reversed his diabetes through FFD.
At the same time, I had also heard Dr. Pramod Tripathi's name during one of Dr. B. M. Hegde's talks on YouTube.
When I met a diabetologist, I was told I would have to stay on medicines for at least one year, and that there was a possibility I might need them for life.
At just 42 years old, I wasn't ready to accept that.
After hearing my friend's experience and understanding the science behind diabetes reversal, I decided to trust the process and joined Discover Reversal Session.
It turned out to be one of the best decisions of my life.

My Reversal Story
When I joined FFD, I weighed nearly 80 kg and had just started diabetes medicines.
The FFD team closely monitored my reports, meals, exercise, and medications.
Within less than one month, I became completely medicine-free.
Over the following months, my HbA1c steadily reduced from 12.7 to 5.3, while my weight dropped from 80 kg to 63 kg, helping me lose 17 kg.
My cholesterol profile and liver markers also improved significantly. The transformation wasn't just physical.
My energy levels shot up, my mood improved, I stopped feeling sleepy throughout the day, and the constant irritability I had blamed on work stress simply disappeared.
I finally realized that many of those problems weren't caused by my job, they were caused by uncontrolled diabetes.
Athletic Identity
I don't limit myself to one athletic identity. Running, gym workouts, strength training, stair climbing, Surya Namaskars, and functional exercises have all become part of my lifestyle.
During my reversal journey, I faced another challenge.
An old implant from my bomb blast injury became infected because of uncontrolled diabetes, forcing me to undergo surgery to remove the metal plate from my hand.
For nearly three months, I wasn't allowed to perform exercises involving my upper body.
Instead of giving up, I focused on what I could do.
I started climbing stairs every day and continued lower-body workouts.
Today, I can proudly complete 216 Surya Namaskars in one stretch, something I never imagined would be possible.
Fast For Freedom Experience
I also participated in Fast For Freedom, where I reduced another 3 kg, going from 67 kg to 64 kg during the fasting period.
The biggest changes I noticed were:
- Better sleep quality
- Higher energy throughout the day
- Sharper focus at work
- Improved digestion
- Reduced dependence on food
One habit that completely transformed my mornings was starting the day with the FFD smoothie.
Even today, it remains one of my favourite habits because it gives me sustained energy and the perfect start to my day.
Inner Transformation
The psychology sessions played a very important role in my journey.
Like many people, I struggled with food temptations after my health started improving.
Instead of suppressing those cravings, the psychologist helped me understand how to build a balanced relationship with food.
I learned that diabetes reversal isn't about restricting yourself forever.
It's about enjoying life while making mindful choices and knowing how to balance occasional indulgences with healthy habits.
Those sessions completely changed my mindset and made this lifestyle sustainable.
Current Lifestyle & Reflection
Today, diabetes no longer controls my life.
I continue maintaining my healthy lifestyle through regular exercise, balanced nutrition, and consistency.
Although frequent work-related travel and professional commitments caused a small weight gain recently, I know exactly how to get back on track because FFD has given me the knowledge and confidence to manage my own health.
Whether it was my doctor, dietitian, psychologist, mentors, or even the support team, help was always just one message away.
It never felt like I was following a program. It felt like I had become part of a family that genuinely wanted me to succeed.
