Hello, I’m from Chennai. I joined FFD not because I had major health issues, but because my weight simply wouldn’t come down despite multiple attempts.

My Story

I have always been a fairly active person, but my weight had plateaued for years. No matter what I tried on my own, the numbers refused to move below 94–95 kg.

During a routine set of tests, I came to know that I was in the prediabetic range, with an HbA1c of 6.6. My mother is diabetic, so the risk was always there, but I had no symptoms, no tiredness, no discomfort.

Even then, my main concern remained weight loss. I wanted to become lighter, healthier, and fitter, but I needed structured guidance.

That’s when colleagues at Tata Steel suggested FFD. Several of them were already part of the program and were very positive about the results. Their confidence pushed me to finally take the step.

How FFD Was Introduced to Me

FFD came to me through word of mouth colleagues whose health transformations were visible and inspiring.

What attracted me most was the scientific, methodical approach.

For the first time, I understood not just what to do, but why to do it. That clarity was enough for me to join the program with full commitment.

My Reversal Story

The changes started showing early.

My weight began dropping steadily from 96 kg to 88 kg, and now stabilised around 90 kg in a comfortable, sustainable way.
My HbA1c reduced from 6.6 to 6.3, moving me out of risk territory.
My creatinine improved significantly, from 1.16 to 0.96, suggesting better kidney health.
My eating habits, which I hadn’t realised were problematic, transformed completely.

What surprised me the most was the shift in my energy levels. Earlier, I would feel drained in the evenings. Now, I feel lighter, more alert, and much more energetic throughout the day.

Colleagues even told me I look younger maybe to motivate me, but it felt good!

Also, something as simple as fitting back into old clothes was a small but very satisfying milestone.

Athletic Identity

I’ve always enjoyed free-hand exercises, but after joining FFD, I discovered new possibilities:

Started going to the gym regularly
Resumed swimming (though travel occasionally interrupted it)
Learned 20–25 rounds of Surya Namaskar, which became part of my routine

Even when I travel, I make sure I stay active in some form. That consistency has been one of the biggest gifts of the program.

Inner Transformation

Though I didn’t attend the Inner Transformation sessions specifically, I already practiced meditation and light yoga earlier. These habits helped me stay calm and grounded.

FFD added structure to things I was already doing and helped me connect them more deeply to my health goals.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection

Today, I maintain a healthy weight range, eat mindfully, and stay active through gym workouts, Surya Namaskar, and occasional swimming.

I follow a normal, sustainable diet without extremes, something I can continue lifelong. The biggest shift has been awareness. I am more conscious of what I eat, how much I move, and how my body responds.

The program worked so well for me that I have already recommended it to multiple colleagues and some of them have joined too.
