Type 1 Diabetes Coaching · Documented Results

Real People. Real Blood Sugars. Real Freedom.

FTF Warrior is a coaching program for Type 1 diabetics. We don't make you fit your life into diabetes — we fit diabetes into your life. Using a personalized formula built around your insulin, diet, and activity, we help you get your blood sugars predictable so you can stop managing a condition and start living your life.

Below you'll find hundreds of documented results from real clients — A1C drops, time in range transformations, athletes back in their sport, parents sleeping through the night, long-timers who were told nothing would change. Different people. Different starting points. One pattern. Scroll until you find your story.

These results belong to clients who showed up, did the work, and implemented what they were taught. Results vary based on individual effort, consistency, and starting point. This program is not a quick fix — if you're looking for one, it's probably not the right fit. If you're willing to follow a system, these outcomes are what tend to happen.

After 24 years, all signs of diabetes have been reversed in my eyes. The hospitalizations are gone. The boils are gone. I can plan a future now. I just didn't have the right information — and now I do.

For the skeptics

"This seems too good to be true."

You're not wrong to feel that way. Here's what people who said the exact same thing have to say now.

Lucia · 25 years T1D · Netherlands

I thought this was too good to be true. Today I checked before the call — 95% in range. And I didn't feel like I put any effort in.

Jess · 33 years T1D · Working mom

I actually thought yours was gimmicky too. Then I started hearing things I'd never heard before. A1C dropped 1.8 points in under 3 months.

Ben N. · T1D

At first it almost sounded too good to be true. Then I saw 25% improvement in my A1C.

I was worried it was a scam. Once I got over that, I took a gamble. It paid off.

Emily K. · A1C 7.3 → 5.6

You promise a lot. I took you at face value. It sounded really good and I was desperate. No regrets whatsoever.

Elliot S. · Age 74 · 99% Time in Range

My doctor still doesn't believe I achieved these things. If they didn't see my labs…

Jess · A1C 8.9 → 7.1 in under 3 months

A1C Results

The number your doctor cares about most.

For anyone whose A1C has been stuck — or who's been told "you're fine" and knows they're not.

7.3 → 5.6 A1C Emily K. · 20+ years T1D

Never below 7 in 20 years. Then 5.6. And I'm finally ready to have a baby.

9.2 → Under 7 Arlene T. · T1.5 → T1D

9.2 to under 7. After years of bouncing between Type 2, 1.5, and Type 1 — I finally got clarity and control.

8.6 → 6 · Lost 25 lbs Johnny B. · Entertainment industry

8.6 A1C. Over 200 lbs. Panic attacks. Three months later — 25 lbs gone, A1C at 6, working out every day.

9.6 → 7.2 · Lost 20 lbs Fede C. · Vienna, Austria · MDI

My endo was furious I joined a diabetes program. Then my A1C dropped over 2 points. She changed her mind.

5.1 A1C · Year one Sam S. · Newly diagnosed

Diagnosed a year ago. On Dexcom in 3 weeks. Now at a 5.1 A1C. You can move fast if you have the right guidance.

7.3 → 5.6

I was worried it was a scam. Once I got over that, I took a gamble and it paid off. My A1C has never been that low in 20 years.

Emily K.
Time in Range

The number your A1C isn't telling you.

A good A1C can mask a bad story. Time in range tells the whole truth.

100% TIR — weeks in a row Sherry · Neuropathy at diagnosis

100%. Not just one day — weeks in a row. And she started out with neuropathy at diagnosis.

95% avg · 100% multiple times Kristie B. · 3 years T1D

I set a goal of 80% and blew right past it. 100% multiple times this week.

40% → 90% TIR Joanna D. · Diagnosed age 7

My endo said the chaos was normal for my age. I went from 40% to 90% time in range anyway.

38% → 70%+ TIR Dan F. · Called himself "a mess"

I was 38% in range. A mess. Now I'm dancing and swimming and hiking again — and T1D is on the back burner.

99% TIR · Age 74 Elliot S. · 44 years T1D

My doctor told me unstable blood sugars were normal at my age. Then I hit 99% time in range. At 74.

99% TIR · 50 years T1D Melinda W. · Diagnosed 1970

50 years with Type 1. 98% time in range. Eating whatever I wanted. This is what mastery looks like.

Athletes & Exercise

T1D is not your ceiling.

For anyone holding back on workouts, races, or sport because of blood sugar fear.

Car crash → Pro tennis Keith · 33 years T1D

A low blood sugar sent him through a car crash. A few weeks with the right system had him back on the pro tennis court.

100% TIR · Half marathon Allie K. · Runner

She ran a half marathon and never once left her target range. 95 to 130 the entire race.

Predicted 129 · Landed 130 Clay B. · Cyclist · 18-month gap closed

I predicted my post-ride blood sugar would be 129. I got off the bike. It was 130. That's when everything clicked.

100% TIR · Endurance sport Rachel M. · Former gymnast

One phone call. One session. 100% time in range through an entire endurance event.

A1C 7 → 6 · Exercise fear gone Blima G. · 10+ years T1D

I was afraid to work out. Every session ended in a low. Now I exercise knowing exactly what will happen.

Back on the bike

I hadn't been on the bike in 18 months. Exercise was a threat. Now I know what to do — and I can use it as a tool.

Clay B.
Parents of T1D Kids

Your child deserves to just be a kid.

For parents carrying the weight of managing T1D for a child — at home, at school, at camp, everywhere.

95% TIR · Age 6 Kelly · Son Lucas, age 6 · T1D since 12 months

He's 6 years old. 95% time in range. Less effort, less worry. And he's just living his life.

Stable at camp · Age 8 Sherrelle's dad · Daughter age 8

She's 8 years old, at camp, eating everything, doing everything — and her blood sugars cooperated the whole time.

TIR up 70% · Age 11 Matthew's mom · Son age 11 · A1C 13.8 at diagnosis

He was 9 when he went into DKA with a 13.8 A1C. Two years later, his time in range is up 70%.

Long-Timers · 20+ Years

For everyone who thinks they've seen it all.

Decades with T1D doesn't mean you've learned everything. It often just means you've been carrying more than you should.

47 years T1D · TIR 84% → 86% Kathy · Swimmer

47 years of T1D and her doctor said she was fine — but she still couldn't swim without fear.

52 years T1D · Transformed in 8 weeks Shirley · Diagnosed 1972

52 years with T1D and she'd never had real guidance. Eight weeks later, everything was different.

Age 74 · 99% TIR Elliot S. · 44 years T1D

My doctor told me this was just normal at my age. Then I hit 99% time in range. At 74.

50 years T1D · 99% TIR Melinda W. · Diagnosed 1970

50 years with Type 1. 98% time in range. Eating whatever she wanted.

42 years T1D · Lows eliminated Audrey P. · Florida · Active lifestyle

She called 911 because she accidentally injected insulin during a dangerous low. That was the last time.

52 years T1D

After 52 years, I finally found hope. It took less than 8 weeks.

Shirley · Diagnosed 1972
MDI Users · Injections Only

Not on a pump? This section is for you.

The program works on injections. Full stop. Here's the proof.

5.7 A1C · MDI only Scott A. · MDI + Dexcom

5.7 A1C. On injections — not a pump. If you think the program only works for pump users, read this.

+30% TIR · MDI Karen C. · 12 years T1D · MDI

A hysterectomy wrecked her hormones and wrecked her blood sugars. 30% more time in range on injections fixed them.

T2D · MDI · A1C improved Mark M. · Type 2 on insulin

He's Type 2. On injections. One shift in thinking changed everything about his blood sugar management.

Complications & Reversals

For the ones who wonder if it's already too late.

It's not. Here's what happened when people who'd been told otherwise decided to try anyway.

Eye complications reversed Stephen · 24 years T1D

After 24 years, all signs of diabetes reversed in my eyes. The boils are gone. The hospitalizations are gone.

100% TIR · Neuropathy at diagnosis Sherry · Found out during surgery prep

She found out she had diabetes while prepping for surgery. Already had neuropathy. Then she hit 100% time in range — for weeks.

Sub-40 lows → Eliminated Audrey P. · 42 years T1D

She called 911 because she accidentally injected insulin during a dangerous low. That was the last time. It's been months.

Newly Diagnosed

You don't have to spend years figuring this out.

The hard way isn't the only way. Here's what's possible in your first year.

5.1 A1C · Year one Sam S. · Diagnosed 1 year ago

Diagnosed a year ago. On Dexcom in 3 weeks. Now at a 5.1 A1C. You can move fast if you have the right guidance.

6 months T1D · Full turnaround Grace · Diagnosed on April Fool's Day

Diagnosed on April Fool's Day. Six months later, she had her T1D figured out better than most people do in years.

5.9 A1C · 80%+ TIR · Age 18 Nicole H. · College-bound · Future T1D nurse

She's 18, heading to college, planning to specialize in T1D nursing. 5.9 A1C. 80%+ time in range.

Medical Professionals

When healthcare pros become clients.

When a registered dietitian or a nurse says "this showed me things I didn't know" — that's a different kind of endorsement.

RD · Registered Dietitian

I'm a registered dietitian. I've had Type 1 diabetes for 40 years. And this program still showed me things I didn't know.

Rosemary M., RD Registered Dietitian · 40 years T1D · 90% daily TIR achieved
RN · Registered Nurse

I've read the diabetes fitness books. I've read the nutrition books. This program married them all together — fitness, diabetes, and nutrition in one place.

Dan · Type 1 Diabetic, RN Registered Nurse · 27 years T1D
Caretaker · 12 Years

I work as a caretaker for men with autism — many have T1D. After sharing the book with my nursing staff, they all said they're getting it. They've seen the change in my energy and my numbers.

Stephen · Caretaker, 12 years Eye complications reversed · Hospitalizations eliminated
What happened when their doctors saw the results
Endo reaction

"She was a little pissed off in the beginning when I told her I was doing a diabetic program. Then when my A1C came back two points lower — she said, 'Okay. This is working.'"

Fede C. · A1C 9.6 → 7.2

Endo reaction

"She said 'well, your A1C is only a 7.1.' I started at 8.9 in December. I realized I don't need her gratification. I did the work."

Jess · A1C 8.9 → 7.1 in under 3 months

Physician reaction

"My physician said on Wednesday: 'What's going on with you? Your stuff looks really good.' I said I have a coaching thing going. He said: 'You're doing fantastic.'"

Melinda W. · 50 years T1D · 99% TIR

The Blood Sugar Freedom Formula by Matt Van
★★★★★

The methods behind our program — now a bestselling book.

The same formulas our clients use, now available on Amazon. The book is the blueprint. Working with our team means having a coach in your corner to build it around your specific life.

I have been a T1D for 23 years, and in just one week I already saw a huge improvement — my Time in Range went from 70% to 90%. I finally feel like I understand what's happening in my body and what changes actually make a difference. Megan H. · 23 years T1D · ★★★★★
After almost 60 years of T1D, I still had a huge amount to learn from this book. My A1C had never been below 7.3. Now I balance around 6.1 — and I'm looking forward to many years playing with my great grandkids. Linda P. · 60 years T1D · ★★★★★
I put it into practice and improved my time in range from 75% to 90%. I even had a couple of days at 100%. The book has many golden nuggets that help you live your life to the fullest and still manage your blood sugar effectively. Del D. · Verified Purchase · ★★★★★
The honest question

Is it worth it?

We're not going to tell you this program is cheap. What we will tell you is what our clients say about that question after they've been through it.

It's pennies on the dollar compared to your health. Whatever your age — get started. You're going to feel so much better and feel in control of your life.

Amy H. · 26 years T1D · TIR 73% → 90s

It's a substantial chunk of cash and I'm retired. No regrets whatsoever. Your health is just — what can I say. It's totally money well spent.

Elliot S. · Age 74 · 99% Time in Range

I've spent 25 years doing this mostly alone. Just 5 or 10 minutes a year at the doctor. There's so much going on that you cannot keep up with by yourself.

Lucia · 25 years T1D · Netherlands · 95% TIR

It was definitely not a waste of money, time, or energy. It's my health — and it's a better understanding of my health than I've ever had in 15 years.

Jeff D. · 15 years T1D

The cost of staying where you are
is higher than the cost of changing it.

Still have questions?

The ones we hear most.

Yes — fully. The program was built to work on injections and pump alike. Scott A. achieved a 5.7 A1C on MDI only. Karen C. increased her time in range by 30% on injections after years of erratic blood sugars. Mark M. is Type 2 on MDI and saw significant improvements with one key shift. The formulas don't require a pump — they just require your willingness to use them.
Kathy had a 6.7 A1C and 84% time in range. Her doctor said she was doing great. She still couldn't swim without fear, still had unpredictable swings, and still had zero peace of mind. Rosemary — a registered dietitian with 40 years of T1D — joined the program and said it still showed her things she didn't know. Good enough on paper isn't the same as freedom.
Elliot S. is 74 years old with 44 years of T1D — and just hit 99% time in range. Shirley has had T1D for 52 years and transformed her management in under 8 weeks. Melinda W. — 50 years of T1D — is at 99% TIR eating whatever she wants. Audrey P. has had T1D for 42 years and eliminated dangerous sub-40 lows she'd been dealing with for years. The program works precisely because it's built around your specific situation — not a generic plan you've already outgrown.
Yes. We've worked with parents of T1D children as young as 4 years old. Kelly's son Lucas was diagnosed at 12 months and is now 6 years old with 95% time in range — with less effort and less worry. Sherrelle's dad enrolled so his 8-year-old daughter could go to summer camp and come home with stable blood sugars. Matthew's dad enrolled when his son was 11; time in range increased 70%.
Not at all — and honestly, this is one of the best times to start. Sam S. was diagnosed less than a year before joining and achieved a 5.1 A1C. Grace was diagnosed 6 months before enrolling and had her T1D figured out better than most people do in years. The program builds from the foundation up — you don't need prior knowledge, just willingness to learn.
It depends on where you start and how much you implement — but results often come faster than people expect. Kristie B. was averaging 95% time in range and hitting 100% multiple times within her first week. Zak saw a dramatic transformation in under 24 hours. Fede C. was sleeping through the night within the first week after years of overnight disruptions. The foundational work — basal testing, pre-bolus timing — tends to show results quickly because most people have never had it properly calibrated.

Every person on this page was once exactly where you are right now. Skeptical. Stuck. Wondering if it was really possible for someone in their specific situation.
