- Name - Male

I am a 55 years old IT professional from Bangalore working with Accenture for the past 27–28 years.
Working in IT meant living a demanding 24x7 lifestyle with irregular schedules, high work stress, and long sitting hours. Over time, this started affecting my health in multiple ways.
I was diagnosed with diabetes around 5 years ago. At one point, my blood sugar had even touched 10, and although it later hovered around 7.5–8, I knew things were slowly worsening.
Today, I am off diabetes medicines, have lost 15 kg, significantly improved my health markers, and feel stronger, fitter, and more energetic than ever.
Key Takeaways:
- HbA1c reduced from 6.9 to 6.2 in 3 months
- Became medicine-free within 2 weeks
- Weight Reduced from 83 kg to 68 kg in 9 months
- Improved blood sugar control significantly
- Cholesterol medicines reduced drastically
- Urinary discomfort completely resolved
- Improved stamina, breathing, and strength
- Inspired 8+ others to join FFD
My Diabetes Story
Being in IT for nearly three decades meant long hours, sedentary work, and a lifestyle that slowly took a toll on my health.
Although there was no family history of diabetes, I was diagnosed about 5 years ago.
At one point, my sugar levels touched 10, which was a serious wake-up call.
But beyond blood sugar, I was struggling with a very uncomfortable issue:
- Constant urinary urge
- Pain and discomfort while sitting or lying down
- Sensation of needing to urinate repeatedly
Doctors evaluated me multiple times but couldn’t identify a clear root cause. Some suggested inflammation, others suspected nerve compression issues.
This problem was severely affecting my quality of life.
I also had:
- High cholesterol
- Mild blood pressure concerns
- Elevated triglycerides
- Uric acid fluctuations
At that point, I knew I needed a proper long-term solution, not just more medicines.
How Was FFD Introduced to Me?
My turning point came unexpectedly. A senior colleague at Accenture, someone in a leadership role, noticed me following a keto-style diet during dinner.
I was eating paneer and trying to manage my diabetes through keto, but I was not seeing the desired results.
He asked me why I was doing that. When I explained my diabetes concerns, he introduced me to Freedom From Diabetes.
He himself had benefited from the program, had reduced medicines significantly, and shared his experience in detail.
That conversation changed everything.
I joined FFD in June.
My Reversal Journey
The moment I joined, I followed the program with complete discipline. And the results came quickly.
Within just 2 weeks:
- My diabetes medicines were stopped
- This was unbelievable for me.
For someone who had been gradually progressing toward more medication dependency, becoming medicine-free in 14 days felt like a complete reset.
Over time:
- Blood sugar normalized
- Cholesterol medicines were tapered significantly
- Health markers improved
My urinary discomfort which had been bothering me for a long time also disappeared completely.
He says: “Now I am 100% out of that problem.” That alone made the journey worth it.
My Physical Transformation
One of the most visible transformations was my weight loss.
Weight journey:
- Before: 83 kg
- After weight loss: 68 kg
- Current maintained weight: 69.5–70 kg
- That’s a total loss of approximately 15 kg.
Interestingly, after losing weight, the team actually guided him to stop further loss and shift into muscle-building mode.
Today, he is consciously maintaining lean body composition while building strength.
My Athletic Identity
Mr. Suresh has built an impressive fitness routine. His active lifestyle now includes:
- Walking
- Jogging
- Cycling (30–35 km rides)
- Weight training
- Plank training
One of his proudest achievements: He can now hold a 4-minute plank in one stretch. His morning routine includes:
- 4-minute plank
- Weight lifting
- 3-minute plank
- More strength exercises
- 2-minute plank
- 1-minute plank
This level of discipline and strength was unimaginable for him earlier. He also says:
“I can now freely breathe, move without fatigue, and do things I never thought were possible.”
New Confidence & Lifestyle Shift
- This journey gave him far more than diabetes control. It gave him confidence.
- He says something beautifully unique: “I feel like I have got a new life.”
- He now feels capable of doing things he earlier thought were impossible.
- One fun example? He never used to ride motorcycles.
But now, after his transformation, he is planning to buy an Enfield Bullet cruiser because he finally feels physically confident enough to ride it.
That says a lot about how deeply this transformation impacted his self-belief.

Spiritual & Mental Wellness
Though he did not take one-on-one psychology sessions, he has his own form of inner transformation. Every morning, he spends:
1 hour in focused puja
For him, this is his form of meditation and mental grounding. This practice keeps him calm, centered, and disciplined.
Inspiring Others
Mr. Suresh didn’t just transform himself. He has already recommended FFD to 8+ people.
Some of the people he directly inspired include:
- Padma Kokila
- Shanti
- Ramesh
- Tilak Pawar
He regularly stays in touch with them, shares his experience, and motivates others through his own results.
