💙So, how we ended up in the resort...💙 I lost some weight and my mum saw a photo, immediately called me up crying and told us that she & my dad had booked us into a beautiful hotel to give me a relaxing place to chill out and get some much needed rest... The full story below... - So after only 1 month of our time in India I fell ill and started to rapidly lose weight! After 3 visits, overnight stays in local hospitals and still no cure I had lost 20kg and my weight was around 65kg! I struggled to keep any of the food I was forcing myself to eat in my stomach and had very little energy (which is very unlike me)! After trying many different medications, the last resort before flying home came to us in the form of a chance meeting with a Tibetan doctor who promised that through herbal Tibetan medicine I could be cured within 15 days! 15 days later having just arrived in Vietnam the Medicine had did just as the doctor had promised and restored my ability to eat and keep food in my stomach which enabled me to slowly regain my energy! The next 3 months were spent eating as much Vietnamese food as I could find (luckily this was one of our favourite cuisines) and putting on all of the weight I had lost and a little extra for good measure! Regaining my strength was a long and hard journey but it was a journey that I learned a huge amount from including my limits and how far I can push myself. - To this day I’m still not sure what I had, some said it was dengue fever, some said a parasite but whatever it was I was stronger than it and managed to beat it! - The second last photo was the photo my mum saw that set her off and the last photo was a comparison to three months later. - - - - - - #india #skinny #tooskinny #denguefever #dengue #ill #skinnyman #travel #delhibelly #weightlossjourney #strength #limits #parasite #skeleton #journey #doctor #tibetanmedicine #tibet #illinindia #travelbug (at India) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_5KC7JpSMg/?igshid=14u0arc3tvodv
