Introduction
Hello Friends
I am Neelam Sachar, age 64, from Vadodara, Gujarat. I worked as a school principal but retired now. There was personal and professional stress involved along with a maternal history of diabetes. My maternal family members are diabetic including my mother.
How did I get to know about my diabetes?
I was diagnosed with diabetes when I had UTI (urinary tract infection) and the doctor asked me to get my blood sugar checked. This was long back in 1992, 30 years ago.

Difficulties I faced
I continued to take oral tablets for 3 years after being diagnosed with diabetes. Later on, in 1995, it was observed that my sugars just could not be controlled with medicines. So, I had to be put on insulin. Cholesterol tablets began in 1997. My other sufferings due to diabetes were diabetic retinopathy, sensory neuropathy, and knee Pain.
Retinopathy depressed me a lot as it raised a lot of concerns. Pricking insulin each time was also very traumatic.
Me and Freedom from Diabetes
I came to know about FFD through a friend but it was not very clear. I was not sure about its effectiveness. Later, due to corona, I came to know that the program is online. Again I wasn't sure that I would be able to follow it. Finally, after I attended a webinar named DRS by Dr. Pramod, I was convinced. I was highly concerned about my eyes. I wanted to come out of this. Therefore I decided to join FFD diabetes reversal program HTP.
Freedom from Diabetes journey
FFD program is based on 4 protocols - diet, exercise, inner transformation, and medical assistance. I had decided to approach it sincerely and within 15 days of joining the program, I was off insulin. I was elated as I had never expected such speedy results.
Now I was free from injecting insulin which I had to do twice a day. Luckily, my BMI was not very high, it was 25. Coming down to 22.5 happened gradually in 3 months. But yes my spouse followed the same diet and quickly lost 15kg of weight.
I am still on medicine due to fluctuating BSL, but coming down from 10 HbA1c to 6.9 has been an achievement in itself.
My thoughts
I get compliments for my figure and glowing look. Now, I can wear clothes that I was hesitant to wear previously. A big thanks to FFD. I am sure I will be able to get off the medicines also and will regain better health. Life will be sweet again!
Takeaways
- Freedom from insulin
- HbA1c dropped from 10 to 6.9
- A lot of positivity
