How a 52-Year-old Turned His Life Around and Beat Diabetes

“Ab Fitterfly ke baad lagta hai mujhe ab kuch ho hi nahi sakta hai,” he said when he completed Fitterfly’s Diabetes Care Plan and reversed his 3-year-long diabetes in just 6 months.

But who is ‘he’? And how did this fantastic transformation happen in such a short span? Is this a fictional character?

NO, my friend, this is not fictional. This is the story of Moinuddin Sayed (Prince), one of our dear members.

Prince, 52, found out he had diabetes while getting surgery for another condition. He tried many things to manage it, like natural remedies, but his weight still went up to 103 kg, and his HbA1c was at 11.3.

He faced challenges, including being suggested heart surgery, which made him think more about his health choices. To top that, he was also advised not to move much after surgery, which was hard on him physically and mentally.

This stress rose to a point that he felt that he would never be able to recover.

Before finding the right help with Fitterfly’s Diabetes Prime Program, Moinuddin went through a lot. He knew he had to do ‘something else’ to control his diabetes. That is when he came across Fitterfly.

How Fitterfly Made a Difference in Prince’s Diabetes Journey?

Prince enjoys eating neer dosa. When he joined our program, he thought his Nutrition Coach would ask him to stop eating it.

However, that didn’t happen. Instead, we showed him how Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) could help.

With CGM, we explained that he could continue to eat his favorite foods without giving them up.

This approach built a foundation of trust with Prince, making him feel at ease knowing that our program wasn’t about restricting his choices.

Now, let’s take a look at his eating habits before joining the Fitterfly program.

1. Nutritional Interventions

Prince was trying to lower his diabetes by using remedies that weren’t scientifically backed, like eating too much ghee. He also thought jaggery was better than sugar for diabetes, but he was wrong.

Our nutrition coach helped him see these mistakes. Prince was told to eat plain rotis without ghee and use stevia instead of jaggery to sweeten his drinks.

The coach also added a bowl of fresh vegetable salad to his meals for more fiber and a bowl of curd after working out for protein. Many such small but important changes in Diabetes diet plan helped Prince eat healthier and made an overall improvement in his diet.

2. Psychological Intervention

Prince had faced major health concerns in the past, which completely shattered his confidence. To restore it, some of the techniques that our success coaches used were:

• 54321 grounding technique, helping him focus on the present and easing his anxiety
• Deep breathing exercises and Jacobson’s Progressive Muscle Relaxation (JPMR), for a calmer mind and better sleep.
• Education on sugar level fluctuations and monitoring, for clarity and reducing his diet-related worries.
• Positive affirmations, which boosted his self-esteem.

The result? He saw a huge improvement in his mood and anxiety levels, feeling more in control and positive about his well-being. This journey showed him that overcoming challenges with the right support is possible.

3. Physiotherapy Intervention

Since 2017, Prince had been dealing with shoulder pain from a gym injury, complicating his physical activities. In 2020, the situation worsened as he faced increasing weight and blood sugar levels, leading to fatigue after work.

His physio coach crafted a plan to tackle all this:

• Mixed Exercises: Focused on cardio, strength, and flexibility to improve fitness.
• Pain Management: Ergonomic postures and exercises specifically for his shoulder pain, which significantly improved in two weeks.
• Interval Walking: Alternating brisk and normal-paced walking to boost heart rate and energy use.
• HIIT: High-intensity interval training aimed at achieving a specific heart rate to lower HbA1c levels.

With such a focused fitness intervention plan, Prince lost an amazing 19 kgs weight in just 6 months, got stronger with more exercise, and felt a huge boost in energy and motivation.

The Outcome

Prince’s experience with Fitterfly has been life-changing. In fact, a few months into the program, his need for BP medications ceased.

Today, he feels calmer and happier. He’s grateful that he came across Fitterfly’s Diabetes Prime Program and how it changed things for him.

Prince’s story shows how personalized care can truly make a difference.
