Hello all,
I'm Anand Singh from Noida. I was a senior class 1 Government officer, now retired.
My diabetes and weight gain story
In 2006, during a medical examination for shoulder pain, I received the unsettling news that I had diabetes, with an HbA1c level exceeding 7.
This diagnosis added to my existing battle with high blood pressure, a condition I had been managing since 2004. Family history wise, my mother did suffer from this disorder.
To compound matters, stress was a constant companion, both in my personal and professional life. As time passed, my body began to resist the effectiveness of medications, eventually necessitating the use of insulin.
However, even insulin failed to provide significant relief, and my daily insulin dosage reached a staggering 114 units. This surplus of insulin was contributing to weight gain, further disrupting the delicate balance and resulting in erratic sugar levels and a heavy weight of 143 kg.
My doctor was suggesting I undergo bariatric surgery as he found no solution for my condition. I found myself trapped in a relentless cycle of health challenges.
How was FFD introduced?
I became acquainted with FFD through a previous participant who had experienced highly favorable outcomes from the program.
What made me choose FFD?
I never liked being on medicines. With FFD, I saw a hope of going free of medicines. The introductory webinar by Dr. Pramod Tripathi added to my confidence and I enrolled in Freedom from Diabetes type 2 diabetes reversal program - HTP immediately.

My diabetes reversal & weight loss story
My journey with FFD commenced with a hint of hesitation, but it quickly turned into a positive experience. Within 3-4 months, my insulin dependency ceased, and it took roughly 8-9 months for me to completely discontinue my diabetes medications.
Consequently, my HbA1c levels improved from 8.7 when diagnosed to 6 my current level, marking a significant achievement.
However, the most remarkable aspect has been my weight loss journey, where I shed an incredible 52 kilograms, starting from 143 kg and reaching 91 kg.
I find this transformation truly phenomenal. My dietitian, Rachana Kedia, has played a pivotal role in my success. There were moments when I was on the verge of giving up, but her unwavering support kept me going. Obesity had once made me self-conscious and eroded my confidence, but thanks to FFD, I have emerged from that phase stronger and more self-assured.
The cost factor was also on my mind . Insulin injections including Weekly Trulicity were costing more than 15000/- a month apart from other medications. The FFD cost was recovered within 3 months of starting FFD .
I want to emphatically state that with the right guidance and support, one can attain a goal that may initially appear insurmountable and completely transform their life.
