Medicine Stopped, 38.8 kg Lost, GTT Cleared: Debashis's Diabetes Reversal Journey

Hello all,

 

I’m Debashis Mukherjee, A Businessman from Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh..

My real transformation began years ago, around the age of 63 or 64, when I was diagnosed with diabetes during one of my regular health checkups-A habit I’ve maintained since I was 55. Back then, I weighed about 126 kg. Years of constant travel, Unchecked eating, And minimal exercise had caught up with me. I used to travel the world and eat whatever I liked—no control, Just indulgence.

Despite never facing common diabetic symptoms like fatigue or frequent urination, My diagnosis was a wake-up call. The real turning point came in 2015 when I lost a kidney due to a potentially cancerous growth. That was serious—I’ve been living with one kidney ever since. It hit me then: I had to fight for my life.

How was FFD introduced and what made me choose it?

I discovered Freedom from Diabetes (FFD) through a lecture by the renowned Dr. B.M. Hegde, where Dr. Pramod Tripathi was introduced. His approach intrigued me, so I wrote to FFD and soon joined the program. My motivation was simple: “The program sounded excellent. Why not give it a try?’” And try I did—with incredible results.

Mr. Debashis Mukherjee

The FFD team performed a detailed study of my case and designed a tailor-made plan. As I began implementing it I started seeing positive results. Within just three months of joining FFD, I was off all diabetes medications.

I lost 38.8 kg—dropping from 126 kg to 88 kg at my lowest. While some family members felt I’d lost “too much” weight, I later stabilized around 93–94 kg. FFD awarded me medals, and it felt amazing.

Despite setbacks - A major accident that weakened one leg and a recent rotator cuff surgery limiting my upper-body movement—I stay active. I follow FFD’s yoga protocol daily. I can’t run or lift weights, But I do what I can. I stick to my diet and lifestyle.

Since 2020, I’ve cleared the Glucose Tolerance Test Six times, A true sign of ''Reversal''. My highest HbA1c was 7.8,  I brought it down to 4.9, and now it stays around 5.7, fluctuating slightly after a recent E. coli infection that disrupted my health for nearly three months.

Hypertension runs in my family. I stayed off BP meds for three years, But the infection briefly spiked my readings. My blood sugar went up to 111 during that time, but it’s back to 95–103 now.

Through it all, I have stayed resilient. I do not want to become dependent in old age—I want to remain active and healthy. I guide others only when they seek help, Believing in leading by example. Self-awareness, Discipline, and Transformation—That’s what FFD has helped me achieve.
