My Diabetes Story
My diabetes was diagnosed in 2020, during COVID. I managed it on my own for almost five years. Gradually, it became overwhelming.
I couldn’t handle it the way I used to. There is a strong family history of diabetes, so the pressure felt even heavier.

I didn’t face major symptoms initially, but as my sugars kept fluctuating, the situation affected me mentally.
My weight kept rising, and binge eating became a loop I couldn’t break.

How I Found FFD and Why I Joined
I discovered FFD on Instagram. What drew me in was its holistic approach; it wasn’t just about diabetes.
It addressed diet, movement, emotional health, and lifestyle as a whole. That approach felt right.

I had two one-on-one sessions with FFD’s psychologists early in the journey.
After that, I genuinely felt I didn’t need more than my mental health had stabilized. Meditation, journaling, workouts, and pranayama became natural tools for me. Even gym workouts feel meditative now.

Dietary changes were a game-changer. I had never taken salads, smoothies, or structured meals seriously before.
Today, they’re a natural part of my life. The best part? It wasn’t difficult, FFD made it simple.

Athletic Identity
I haven’t settled on a single athletic identity yet, but I am deeply enjoying gym workouts and yoga, often practicing both together. They keep me grounded and active.
Current Lifestyle & Reflection
The past year with FFD has been truly transformative. I no longer feel hopeless or stuck.
My dietitian, doctor, and coaches have been an incredible support system.
