How I stopped 11 years of insulin with FFD

What pushed me to join FFD?

Diabetes of 16 long years, 11 years of insulin, and side effects of medicines were the points disturbing me. So, I thought if I came out of the medicines and fight diabetes, I would lead a healthier life. Travel for professional work & not knowing what I will get to eat, could not keep my sugars low even after stopping direct intake of white/brown/jaggery/honey sugars completely.

Introduction

Hello Friends

I am Ravikant Ambwani, 56 years young, COO of a UK-based company in India. We deal in Garage equipment. My job profile requires me to travel a lot. Professional stress along with erratic meal timings had disturbed my whole system.

In 2005, I started facing problems with frequent urination and fatigue by the end of the day. So, I went to see my doctor, got the tests done as advised by him, and found that I was diabetic. Tried several ways to keep my sugars under control for the next 5 years but nothing helped. Finally, I had to be put on insulin and medicines.

Medicines and difficulties that came along

I was taking 14 units of insulin in the morning & 12 Units the night with a tablet in the afternoon. As the disease progressed, I had other problems too. I suffered from anxiety, hypothyroidism, frozen shoulders along with diabetes. Am on thyroid medication from June 2022.

My FFD journey

I would like to thank my friend Asha Sathyanarayana who is an FFD participant of HTP batch 76. She was the one who introduced FFD to me. Inspired by her weight loss, I booked my seat for the Discover Reversal Session (DRS), a 2-hour introductory session with Dr. Pramod Tripathi where I got an overview of how diabetes reversal happens with FFD. I soon enrolled myself in the FFD diabetes reversal program HTP batch 80 intending to become medicine and insulin-free.

FFD program is based on 4 main protocols - diet, exercise, inner transformation, and medical. All my doubts regarding diet and exercise were solved to my satisfaction by the FFD experts. I was given travel tips too which made things easier.

I am very proud to share that my insulin stopped in just 28 days of joining FFD. Now, I am only on half a tablet in the night before food and eagerly waiting for the day when I will go off the medicine. I lost 7-8 kg of weight and my BMI is 22.5 which is in the normal range. Before starting my FFD journey my HB1aC was 10.3 and 3 months later it came down to 6.5.

Suggestions

I exercise regularly, do Surya namaskars and all other recommended exercises. I swim on Saturday and Sunday and have chosen cycling as my athletic identity. FFD has helped me come a long way, from a lethargic person to a person who is super active now. If I could do it, you too can. Join our HTP program and begin your life 2.0 like me.
