My Diabetes Story
I was diagnosed with diabetes during an annual medical check-up in 2012, and that marked the beginning of my journey with medications.
Over the years, my sugar levels kept fluctuating—sometimes improving, but often rising again—leading to increased dosage. I stayed on medication for nearly 12 years, and at one point in 2017, my HbA1c peaked at 9.8.

Interestingly, neither of my parents had diabetes, although my brother has been dealing with it for several years. In my case, I strongly believe it was poor lifestyle choices and unhealthy eating habits that triggered the condition.
Despite efforts, I constantly felt weak and struggled to lose weight, which made things even more challenging.
Alongside diabetes, I also faced challenges with hypertension (2011) and high cholesterol (2006).
How was FFD introduced, and what made me choose it?
It was through one of my friends that I got to learn about Freedom from Diabetes.
I wanted to take control of my blood sugar the natural way, as I wasn’t happy with relying on medications or the limited progress I was making.
In December 2024, I attended an introductory session with Dr. Pramod Tripathi, which truly resonated with me. That very day, I knew I had to give this approach a try. I enrolled in HTP Batch 115 starting January 2025, determined to turn things around.

Reversal Story
I joined FFD in January 2025, and by February 20th, I was completely off diabetes medication. At the start, my HbA1c was 8 (on Jan 8), and by April 28, it had dropped to 5.8.
My weight also decreased significantly—from 81.5 kg to 70 kg in just four months.

Today, I feel energetic, flexible, and far more confident. I can comfortably do 24 Surya Namaskars and have started running 30 minutes daily for the past couple of weeks.
I am hopeful that with continued progress, I will soon be free from BP and cholesterol medications, too.

I have always been a casual jogger, but now I am inspired to build consistency and make it a regular part of my life. FFD has truly been a transformative experience.
