My Diabetes Story
My diabetes was discovered after I suffered from a fever and started consuming large amounts of fruit juices during recovery.
Soon after, my blood sugar levels began fluctuating between 6.5 and 7.5. Interestingly, I never experienced the classic symptoms of diabetes.
It was completely silent.
Unlike many others, I also had no family history of diabetes, which made the diagnosis even more unexpected.
Although I didn't have any diabetes-related complications, I knew I couldn't ignore it forever.

How Was FFD Introduced and What Made Me Choose It?
The turning point came when I watched a lecture by Dr. B. M. Hegde. During the talk, he spoke about Freedom From Diabetes and mentioned that diabetes reversal was possible through scientific lifestyle changes.
I have always trusted Dr. Hegde's guidance. When someone with his credibility spoke positively about FFD, I decided it was worth giving a genuine try.
I searched online, learned more about the program, and enrolled for the Discover Reversal Session without hesitation. That single decision changed my life.

My Reversal Journey
When I joined FFD, my HbA1c was around 7.5, and I was taking diabetes medication regularly.
Within just four to five months of following the program sincerely, I was able to stop my diabetes medicines completely under medical supervision.
Over time, my HbA1c steadily improved. It reached as low as 5.4 and has remained around 6.1 recently.
Alongside better sugar control, I also lost nearly 10 kg during my journey.
After reaching my lowest weight, I gradually gained some healthy weight back while focusing on muscle building.
Today, my BMI remains below 25, and my current weight reflects better muscle mass rather than unhealthy fat gain.

Apart from a short course of cholesterol medicine prescribed by the FFD doctors when one of my reports showed borderline values, I have not required long-term medication.
I feel healthier, lighter, and far more confident than before.
Athletic Identity
Exercise has become an important part of my life. Although my demanding factory work schedule sometimes limits my routine, I continue to stay active.
Currently, I practice:
- Yoga three times a week
- Around 12 Surya Namaskars regularly (highest: 24)
- Home-based strength training
I also hope to return to the gym regularly once my work schedule becomes more manageable. Rather than chasing intense workouts, I now focus on consistency.
Inner Transformation Experience
I also attended one-on-one coaching sessions with Udita Ma'am.
Those sessions helped me understand stress management and emotional balance.
While implementing everything consistently is sometimes challenging because of my work environment, I continue applying those learnings whenever I need them.
Even small mindset shifts have helped me stay committed to my health journey.
Current Lifestyle & Reflection
Freedom From Diabetes has given me something much bigger than lower sugar levels.
It has given me freedom from dependency on medicines.
Today, I continue learning, improving my fitness, and maintaining the lifestyle that helped me reverse diabetes.
I am also part of the annual maintenance program because I believe health is a lifelong journey, not a one-time achievement.
