My Diabetes Story
The diagnosis came as a shock. I had no symptoms, no tiredness, no fatigue, just a routine medical checkup in 2012 that revealed I was diabetic.
With a strong family history (both my mother, father and grandparents had diabetes), I knew the risks. I started with minimal medication on one tablet in the morning and evening.

Despite 10 years of being on medication, I felt like I was managing the surface but not solving the root cause.
How I Found FFD
I stumbled upon Freedom from Diabetes while browsing online. I was already looking for a more natural solution, and something about Dr. Pramod Tripathi’s approach made sense. I wasn’t entirely sure it would work but I wanted to try.Reversal Story
To my surprise, I stopped all medications within 1.5 months of joining the program. That includes both diabetes tablets.My HbA1c dropped from 9.3 to 7.2, and I’ve been stable ever since.
Today, I test my sugars regularly and monitor my health carefully. The feeling of being medicine-free after 10+ years? In one word: liberating.
Physical Transformation
I started the program at 85 kg and dropped to 73 kg in the first phase. Since then, I’ve maintained around 78 kg with more muscle and strength now. Weight loss wasn’t the end goal, it was about becoming leaner, fitter, and stronger.
Athletic Identity
Earlier, I loved running. Now I’ve blended that with strength training. I train 3–4 times a week, balancing cardio and weights. This helps me stay active .
Current Lifestyle & Reflection
Now I’m mindfulI know what to eat, how to adjust. I don’t panic if I miss a day, I just get back on track. I even rejoined FFD last year just to reset and fine-tune my routine.
This is a lifelong journey, not a one-time fix. But I now have the tools, awareness, and structure to stay healthy, for life.
Inner Transformation & Mindset
The biggest lesson FFD gave me? Discipline. The program works, but only if you work. You’ll have good days and bad days, but if you’re consistent, the results will follow.
