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.

My highest HbA1c had reached 8.6, and I knew something had to change. That’s when I decided to join FFD.

My Reversal Story

FFD gave me a completely new perspective on health.

The workouts, the diet plans, the guidance everything touched a part of life I had been ignoring.

My weight dropped from 80 kg to 67 kg, a transformation I had never experienced before.

My HbA1c reduced from 8.6 to 5.7, and I’m eagerly awaiting my next test.

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.

I joined after watching Dr. Malhar’s videos & his realistic, practical approach inspired me.

And the entire FFD team helped me rebuild myself inside out.
