My Diabetes Story

My diabetes journey began unexpectedly. At age 40, while serving in the Indian Army, I had severe stomach pain due to a burst appendix. During that medical emergency, doctors discovered I was diabetic.

Since then, diabetes has become part of my life. Over the years, I moved from oral medicines to heavy doses of insulin. Despite being disciplined, my weight gradually touched 95–96 kg.

How I Came Across FFD

My daughter, who lives in Pune, introduced me to FFD. She was not diabetic but had joined the program for weight management.

Seeing her progress and understanding the logic behind FFD’s approach convinced me immediately.

I joined with full trust and I’m glad I did.

My Reversal Journey

Once I began the program, I followed every instruction rigorously.

In just 20 days, my insulin was removed completely. Soon after, my diabetes oral medications were drastically reduced & stopped cholesterol meds.

The biggest transformation came through weight loss. I went from 95+ kg to around 69–70 kg, losing 26 kg.

At one point, I even wrote to my experts asking if I should stop losing more weight!

My HbA1c also saw a drop from 11.5 to 8.3 in 3 months.

Today, I know exactly what to eat, what to avoid, and what exercises keep me healthy. The confidence and clarity FFD has given me is priceless.

Athletic Identity

For my age, I stay extremely active.
I walk long distances without any fatigue
I play golf regularly even at 73, I feel no discomfort

I complete the full FFD routine: chair exercises, sun salutations, wall push-ups, and more (20–45 minutes daily)

I may not have a specific athletic identity, but I feel energetic, strong, and capable better than many people much younger than me.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection

I continue to follow FFD principles even today. With the knowledge I’ve gained, I can maintain my health independently.

I wholeheartedly believe in this program and openly recommend it. Many people including youngsters have joined because of my guidance, and some even tell me, “Uncle, you changed our lives.”

To me, FFD is not just a program, it is the most effective, logical, and life-changing approach for anyone with diabetes or excess weight.
