My Story
I have been struggling with weight gain ever since the COVID-19 pandemic. The sudden lifestyle changes—being indoors more, less movement, and increased stress—really took a toll on my body.
I tried various ways to shed the extra kilos, but nothing seemed to work.

Family history-wise —my father was diabetic.
How was FFD introduced, and what led me to choose it?
I was introduced to the program by a friend who had successfully done it with her husband. Nothing was working for me for weight loss.
When I came to know about it, I decided to give it a try.

Reversal Story
The FFD team performed a detailed study of my case and designed a tailor-made plan.
I have had a wonderful journey so far with FFD losing 12 kgs and developing healthy habits and relationships with food and my body.
The learnings from this program are truly life-long—they go beyond health and touch every part of life.
Just yesterday, I saw a photo of myself from June 2024 and comparing it with today, June 2025, I felt nothing but deep gratitude.
This journey has restored my confidence and belief in myself. There’s no final destination—just a conscious, consistent drive where every milestone matters.
Even detours are part of the process, and I know now that I can always return to the path.

A big thank you to the entire FFD team—Dr. Pramod and Dr. Malhar especially. You are the yin and yang of this incredible journey—balancing inspiration, discipline, and science with mindfulness. I am proud to call myself an FFDian.
Special thanks to the Legends group—posts from Thomas Sir and Ankush Sir have been so motivating.
My international catch-ups with Dr. Malhar helped me focus on what matters: long cardio, fasting, and not obsessing over weight.
I am slowly adapting to running in nature and building up stamina—today, I completed my first 12K run! Still a long way to go, but I am on the road—and enjoying the ride.
