My Diabetes Story
My journey with diabetes began during pregnancy in 1999, when I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I hoped it would go away after childbirth, But my blood sugar levels kept rising.
Despite no family history of diabetes, my condition worsened. My doctor eventually put me on insulin, and I stayed on it for three long years—years filled with fear, self-doubt, and confusion.
How was FFD introduced and what made me join it?
The turning point came when my cousin, who was also diabetic, heard about FFD’s revolutionary diabetes reversal program in Pune. We decided to go together — A decision that changed my life.

Reversal Story
The FFD team studied my case in detail and designed a tailor-made plan. As I began following it, positive results started pouring in.
I stopped insulin in just 3 days after joining FFD. It felt unbelievable—but it wasn’t magic. It was science, structure, and unwavering support.
When I joined, My HbA1c was around 13. Within 6 months, it dropped to 7. Though I haven’t tested recently, I feel more in control than ever.
When I joined FFD, I weighed 75 kg. Six months later, I had shed 10 kg, and eventually, I touched 60 kg—a total loss of 15 kg.
What changes I made?
- I gave up milk, wheat, and rice
- I followed a structured exercise routine
- I embraced yoga and Surya Namaskars
- I followed FFD’s diet and fasting protocols
- Most importantly, I started prioritizing myself
For years, I managed diabetes—but I never focused on "ME". FFD changed that.
Though I am on oral meds, I am free from insulin which is an incredible feeling.
This isn’t just about fewer medicines—it’s about ''reclaiming my energy, my peace, my life''
I may not run marathons, but I practice yoga and Surya Namaskars daily. Movement is no longer punishment—"It’s my path to Freedom".
