My Health Story Before FFD:
I was never diagnosed as diabetic. However, my joining report showed an HbA1c of 5.9, which the doctor identified as prediabetes.
With a strong family history my father was diabetic and insulin-dependent. I knew I needed to act before reaching the same path.

My main concern was weight management. I was trying multiple methods to control my weight, but nothing delivered sustainable results. I wanted a scientific, structured, and long-term solution not temporary diets.
How FFD Was Introduced and What Made Me Choose It:
A close friend, Vaishali Patil, had joined FFD for diabetes reversal and weight loss.
I personally saw her transformation, as well as the positive health changes in her daughters who joined for weight management.

She encouraged me to watch Dr. Pramod Tripathi’s videos. What I saw was logical, science-based, and sustainable.
Seeing real people achieve real results convinced me that this was not just another diet program, it was a lifestyle education platform.

More importantly, my HbA1c dropped to 5.0 bringing me completely out of the prediabetes range.
What changed was not just my weight or reports but my understanding of food.
I now know what to eat, how to manage hunger, and how to build sustainable discipline rather than temporary restriction.

Fast for Freedom – A Defining Experience:
I had never fasted in my life before FFD. I love food and never imagined I could go without eating for multiple days.
Yet, I completed the Fast for Freedom program three times.
Each time, I lost 3 kg during the fasting cycle and experienced a powerful detox effect.
My mind stayed clear, my energy remained steady, and my work performance never dropped despite my demanding corporate schedule.

The biggest takeaway was discovering that I can control hunger. Hunger does not control me anymore.
Athletic Identity
Exercise became a key pillar of my transformation. I practice Surya Namaskar, yoga, and running. At the FHR retreat,
I successfully completed 100 Surya Namaskars, a milestone I never thought possible at 56.

I am now building my identity as a runner and a cyclist. My vision board says it clearly: January 2027 – Run the Tata Mumbai Marathon.
FHR Experience
Attending the FFD Health Retreat was a deeply enriching experience.
I wanted to meet the doctors personally, learn from legends in the community, and listen to real journeys of people who overcame serious health challenges.

I returned with new friendships, deeper inspiration, and renewed commitment to my lifestyle path.
It strengthened my belief that health is not an individual journey, it is a shared community experience.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection
Today, I live with clarity and confidence. I understand nutrition, I can manage hunger, I exercise consistently, and I know how to sustain my health as I age.
I am not on any medication. My goal is simple to extend my healthy, medicine-free years for as long as possible.
FFD gave me the tools to make that possible.
