My Diabetes Story

I was diagnosed with diabetes suddenly when I started feeling extreme fatigue and uneasiness.

My mother was pre-diabetic, but I had no other significant family history.

Over the years, I took medication, but I struggled with irregular habits and discipline, which affected my sugar levels.

How I Came to Know About FFD

I learned about Freedom From Diabetes through online marketing campaigns. 

Seeing the structured approach and professional guidance, I decided it was the right time to join and bring discipline to my lifestyle.

Reversal Story

When I joined FFD, my HbA1c was 9. After following the program, it was reduced to 7.

However, travel and irregular routines caused it to rise slightly to 7.5.

In terms of weight, I was initially in the 90 kg range.

Following FFD’s diet and lifestyle recommendations helped me lose 10 kg in 4 months,
bringing my weight down to 80 kg.

While I occasionally faced challenges maintaining strict adherence, home-cooked meals, avoiding eating out, and consistent activity helped me stay on track.

Athletic Identity

Walking is my main form of activity, and it has become my athletic identity.

Despite minor setbacks like a leg injury, I remain committed to regular walks and staying physically active.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection

The biggest change has been in my discipline.

Following the program’s guidance on diet, daily routine, and activity helped me regain control over my health.

I rarely eat outside, focus on home-cooked meals, and aim to follow the protein policy more consistently.
