Reversal Story

When I first joined FFD, I was determined to take control of my health. I weighed 85 kg and was on medication for diabetes, thyroid, and blood pressure.

I had tried managing my weight before, but nothing seemed to work long-term. With FFD, everything changed.

Under the guidance of expert dietitians, I followed a structured nutrition plan and participated in the 9-day “Fast for Freedom,” which helped me shed 4 kg in just over a week.

Step by step, I lost a total of 13 kg, and my HbA1c dropped from 6.5 to 5.6. For the first time, my blood sugar, thyroid, and blood pressure were all under control without medication.

Athletic Identity

I explored trekking (including Kedar Badrinath treks) and yoga, which strengthened my body and improved flexibility.

I also practiced Surya Namaskar, achieving up to 90 in one go. Though I’m not a professional athlete, I found joy in light cycling, trekking, and consistent yoga, which gave me confidence and energy.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection

I follow a disciplined diet and continue yoga and light exercises.

FFD’s expert guidance helped me regain control over my health, overcome setbacks, and maintain confidence in managing my weight and sugar levels.

Meditation and breathing techniques helped me feel relaxed and more focused.
