Place - Noida, Uttar Pradesh

Hello all,

I’m Ayushi Gupta, an interaction designer by profession and a mother to a 9-year-old daughter. For years, I was stuck mentally, physically, and emotionally. I didn’t think I’d ever get my health or my energy back. But then I discovered FFD. And what started as a small step became the most powerful transformation of my life.

Key Takeaways

Lost 12.7 kg (from 72.9 kg to 60.2 kg)
Thyroid back to normal
Cholesterol reduced without medication
Insomnia & anxiety gone

Why I Finally Took Action

Two years ago, I saw my cousin post her unbelievable transformation on Instagram. She had reversed diabetes and looked like a completely new person. I was amazed. She told me about FFD’s Holistic Transformation Program (HTP) but I didn’t act on it.

Then, in late 2023, my husband had a blood pressure scare. That was the jolt I needed. I enrolled him into FFD and started learning about Fast for Freedom (FFF). One thought stuck: If not now, when?

The Low Point

I had been stuck with post-pregnancy weight for 9 years. After a severe COVID infection during the second wave, things got worse anxiety, breathlessness, panic attacks. I felt like a shadow of myself. I’d even started accepting the foggy mind and emotional fatigue as “normal.”

Ten Days that Sparked Change
I joined FFF and everything began to shift.

Day 1: Exhausted, 72.9 kg, couldn’t sleep.
Day 3: First juice-fast breakthrough hunger calmed.
Day 5: Anxiety lifted; for the first time in months, I slept before midnight.
Day 10: Down 4 kg, but more importantlyI had hope again.

What My Life Looks Like Now

Today, I fast 2–3 times a week, easily shift into OMAD when life gets busy, and do occasional 5-day resets when I feel the need.

My gut healed, cravings disappeared, and mood stabilised. I finally feel aligned in body and mind. Even during a 14-day Japan trip, I gained just 1 kg and dropped it right after.

Why I Keep Going
I have a 9-year-old daughter and no Plan B. She’s our only child. I want decades of vitality, not hospital visits.

A quote kept ringing in my mind: “Life begins at 40; everything before that is just practice.”
I’m ready for the real game.

Next Chapter: Movement & Meaning
I now practice yoga daily with a personal teacher. I’ve never been this flexible in my life. I’m exploring yoga as my Athletic Identity not for weight, but for flow.
