My Diabetes Story
Diabetes was not just a diagnosis in my family—it was a reality I had witnessed closely.
My biggest challenge was obesity and the repeated cycle of losing and regaining weight.
My weight had once reached 110 kg, and even after losing weight multiple times, I could never maintain it.
I also suffered a heart attack 9 months before joining FFD, which made long-term health my highest priority.

How I Found FFD
I already knew Dr. Pramod Tripathi my senior from medical college, and had followed FFD for years.
But I joined only after attending Dr. Malhar Ganla’s reversal session, where the concept of fat loss versus muscle gain deeply resonated with me.
I joined FFD with one goal—to become a strong horse, not just a thin cow.

My Reversal Journey
When I joined FFD, my HbA1c was 6.2 despite taking 1800 mg of diabetes medicines daily.
I decided to follow the program exactly as instructed. I changed my diet, started anti-gravity stair climbing after meals, and remained extremely disciplined.
Within just one week, I became completely medicine-free under medical supervision.

Over the next year, I lost about 8 kg, maintained my weight at 67 kg, reduced 12 cm from my abdomen, and gained 2.4 kg of lean muscle mass.
More importantly, I finally broke the cycle of repeated weight regain and found a sustainable lifestyle.

Athletic Identity
I discovered my athletic identity through regular gym workouts and strength training.
Even on busy days, I made sure I exercised, because consistency became my greatest strength.

Fast For Freedom Experience
Fortnightly water fasting has become a permanent part of my lifestyle.
I now see fasting as a metabolic reset that helps maintain weight, improve discipline, and support long-term health.

Inner Transformation
FFD taught me that stress management is as important as food and exercise.
Daily meditation sessions and my Inner Transformation session with Yati Shah helped me develop a healthier mindset and a more sustainable approach to wellness.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection
Today, I continue to follow FFD principles with gratitude.
As a doctor, what impresses me most is that FFD integrates medicine, nutrition, exercise, fasting, and mental well-being into one practical system.

The most unexpected gift FFD gave me was confidence.
Earlier, I would hide behind a podium while speaking at conferences and stand behind others in photographs.
Today, I confidently stand in the middle of the stage, speak with pride, and feel completely comfortable in my own skin.
