Hello all,
I'm Kalpana Ravi, a retiree residing in Bangalore. Currently, I am conducting and helping in online Zoom meetings from the comfort of my home.
My diabetes story
I began experiencing vision issues, prompting friends to suggest checking my sugar levels. The revelation was startling as my levels were alarmingly high at 400.
Upon reflection, it became apparent that my stressful work attitude and sweet tooth were more detrimental than any familial history of diabetes.
This led to my weight reaching 80 kg. Determined to address the issue, I significantly controlled my food intake, at one point eating only once a day.
As a result, my weight dropped to 50 kg and eventually down to 37 kg. Throughout this journey, I believed I was making positive strides toward better health.
Talking about my earlier efforts, I tried many ways, but always failed to have even control over diabetic condition. I tried gym, homeopathy, allopathic, fasting, eating some fixed food types etc. none of them gave me results.
I got thinner day by day. I hit a point when it became minimum.
How was FFD introduced?
My overweight cousin and her husband, who is a former FFD participant and managing diabetes, shared insights about FFD and its advantages.
When they came to know that I had hit the highest sugars after corona vaccination, they asked me to join as they felt it would help me balance BMI and sugars both.
What made me choose FFD?
I never liked being on medicines. I desired to have a regular eating pattern like others and avoid imposing my strict fasting routine and specific food choices on those around me. FFD was offering hope.
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.

Reversal story
As I committed to following the four FFD protocols diligently, everything began falling into place. My sugar levels started stabilizing, and my weight found a healthy balance.
The most remarkable aspect was that I achieved these positive outcomes without experiencing hunger, while maintaining normal sugar levels and gaining weight in a healthy manner.
I realized FFD treatment is complete from all sides which works on both mind and body.
I am currently still on medication, but my overall health is excellent. I am confident that by continuing to adhere to the FFD approach, I will soon be able to eliminate the need for medication.
My HbA1c has shown a significant improvement, dropping from 10 to 7. I have experienced substantial muscle weight gain, increasing from my initial weight of 37-38 kg to my current weight of 53 kg.
I feel energized, positive, healthy, and happy. I am in the process of choosing my athletic identity, a decision I will make soon.
For me, the FFD journey has been about keeping my sugar under control, enjoying good food, and gaining muscle to maintain a healthy sugar level.
It has been a journey of learning about food, exercise, smoothies, positive thoughts, forgiveness, gratitude, meditation, healing, sharing, and facing challenges, and I owe it all to FFD.
