My Diabetes Story
I got to learn about my diabetes in the year 2019. Despite having a paternal connection to this condition, the news was unsettling.
Thankfully, I did not suffer from any other diabetes-related disorders, Deep within, I wished to fix my system.
How was FFD introduced?
I learned about FFD through a past participant.
What made me choose FFD?
I never liked being on medicines. FFD was offering hope so I enrolled in its type 2 diabetes reversal program HTP.

My Fasting Story
Dr. Pramod Tripathi encouraged us to participate in group fasting during the Navratri festival this year (2024), and the FFD team provided excellent guidance on how to approach it.
For me, fasting has always been quite challenging, but I decided to join in, recognizing the numerous health benefits it offers, especially for diabetics.
My experience exceeded my expectations, as I managed to fast for over 12 hours. I started at 124 pounds and lost about 3 pounds, bringing my weight down to 121.
The most significant change was in my fasting blood sugar levels, which remained stable on my CGM, showing a consistent low of 89-90.
The group fasting experience was incredibly motivating and inspiring; I felt supported by the FFD team and didn’t feel alone in the process. I am grateful to Dr. Pramod Tripathi and his fantastic team for encouraging us to engage in extended fasting.
I plan to continue with shorter fasting sessions throughout the year. The main challenge I face is managing my fasting and post-meal blood sugars, particularly after dinner, which tend to rise. I am hopeful about overcoming this hurdle and would love to participate in group fasting again.
