My Diabetes Story
I was diagnosed with diabetes about eight years ago after experiencing constant fatigue.
Along with diabetes, I was also dealing with thyroid issues and blood pressure.
Physically, I felt drained most of the time, with episodes of sweating, anxiety, and exhaustion.

There is a family history of diabetes on my maternal side. Over time, lifestyle habits like binge eating, lack of regular exercise, and low awareness contributed to steady weight gain and declining health.
How Was FFD Introduced and What Made Me Choose It?
In April, quite coincidentally, I came across Freedom From Diabetes through a feed on my phone.
Around the same time, I had watched a podcast discussing the possibility of diabetes reversal. That sparked curiosity.

I attended the introductory session by Dr. Pramod Tripathi.
The explanation of diabetes at a cellular level and the emphasis on lifestyle and mindset deeply resonated with me.
Until then, I believed once medication starts, it never stops. That session changed everything.

Reversal Story
When I joined FFD, I was on a single 500 mg diabetes tablet daily.
Within one month of following the program, my doctor advised me to stop the medication completely.
That moment felt almost miraculous.

My HbA1c reduced from 6.7 to 6.2, and I have remained medicine-free since May.
My weight reduced significantly from a high of 94.7 kg to nearly 80 kg.
During Fast for Freedom, I lost close to 4 kg, but more importantly, gained immense clarity and confidence.

Athletic Identity
I discovered my athletic inclination toward yoga.
I comfortably completed 24 Surya Namaskars and plan to gradually build further.
My walking stamina has improved, and I intend to resume structured workouts post my current fasting phase.

Inner Transformation & Emotional Healing
Though I did not initially opt for inner transformation sessions, later conversations with transformation expert Yati Shah helped me deeply.
I learned self-acceptance, reduced self-criticism, and started expressing my emotions instead of suppressing them.

Current Lifestyle & Reflection
I now listen to my body, understand food clearly, and feel more alert and calm.
The education around metabolism and food patterns was eye-opening. I also practice fasting comfortably and intend to continue it mindfully.

I’ve recommended FFD to friends, and one of them has already joined.
My son is also part of the program, making this journey even more fulfilling.
