My Diabetes Story

Around 8 years ago, I developed an infection, and during those medical investigations, I discovered that I had diabetes.

Initially, I did not experience many classic symptoms apart from frequent urination.

But over the years, several other health challenges slowly started building up.

I developed severe knee pain, struggled while climbing stairs, and later developed thyroid issues as well.

My weight increased drastically from around 85–90 kg to nearly 110 kg.

My digestion became very slow, I constantly felt tired, and my body started becoming heavier with time.

That phase was physically and emotionally exhausting.

How was FFD introduced and what made me choose it?

I came to know about Freedom From Diabetes through my doctor.

At that stage, I was desperately looking for ways to improve my health naturally

I did not want my condition to worsen further, that is why I joined the Discover Reversal Session.

The idea of improving health through food, fasting, exercise, and discipline felt meaningful to me.

So I decided to follow the program sincerely.

Reversal Story

When I joined FFD, my HbA1c was around 6.9. Today, it has improved to 5.4.

But the biggest transformation for me has been my weight loss and overall energy levels.

From 110 kg, my weight gradually reduced to around 74 kg. As my eating habits changed, my digestion improved significantly.

I shifted toward millet-based meals, steamed salads, soups, controlled meal timings, and fasting protocols.

I completely stopped eating wheat, bread, milk, butter, paneer, sweets, and rice.

Over time, fasting became a natural part of my lifestyle.

I now comfortably follow one-meal or two-meal patterns, weekly fasting, and occasional juice fasting.

The cravings reduced slowly as my body adapted.

Fast for Freedom Experience

I also attempted the 9-day fasting challenge.

Initially, I could comfortably do 3–4 days of fasting, and later continued with structured fasting under guidance.

During fasting, I experienced cravings initially, slight weakness in the beginning, but eventually much better energy and lightness.

I also learned how to manage low sugar episodes safely with proper guidance. Today, fasting feels natural and sustainable for me.

Athletic Identity


Even at 73, I actively exercise every day.

My daughter introduced me to several strength-training exercises, and now I regularly perform yoga, muscle-strengthening routines, dumbbell exercises, upper-body and lower-body workouts, and resistance-based movements.

I use 2 kg dumbbells and perform around 6–7 different exercises daily.

Exercise has become a very important part of my daily routine and confidence.

Inner Transformation & Meditation

I also attended meditation sessions guided by Dr. Tripathi. Those practices brought a deep sense of calmness and lightness within me.

Even today, I continue doing meditation for around 15 minutes daily.

It helps me stay mentally peaceful, emotionally balanced, and more connected with my body.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection

Today, I feel healthier, lighter, and much more disciplined than before.

My energy levels are good, I stay active throughout the day, and I no longer feel the heaviness I once struggled with.

This journey taught me that age should never become a limitation when it comes to improving health.

With the right guidance and consistency, transformation is always possible.
