It happened as a result of a serious illness that happened just six years before going into the pods, which made him realise how beautiful, yet short, life actually is.<\/p>\n<p>He spoke about how he was on a lot of steroid medication at the time, and as a result of the illness he went through, Filip had to take heavy doses of corticosteroids which affected him on many levels. His body changing was one of the many side effects, and blindness.<\/p>\n<p>Filip said: \u201cI had all the side effects, literally itching my face to the point of bleeding, restless leg syndrome, I was huge. I weighed 100kg. So, you know, everything was here. That\u2019s where all my scars come from, from gaining weight so quickly \u2013 all those stretch marks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He went on to reveal how he got loads of tattoos to cover up the marks, with him saying, \u201cReally, I shouldn\u2019t have made it. I could have just given up, and of course, I was devastated. But I still had to keep going. I had to write my engineering thesis, right?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI decided to write it myself. But how do you do that when you\u2019re blind? People visited me: friends, family,\u201d Filip added, saying he ended up getting top marks without seeing a word, with his loved ones helping him write it, saying he \u201cwouldn\u2019t wish the disease on anyone\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Daria, on the other hand, is a gym girl who often shares videos of her workouts. She says she achieved her body through \u201cself discipline and motivation,\u201d as she can \u201cdeal with pain and hard things,\u201d even joking how her abs are a result of the waffles she chose not to eat.<\/p>\n<p>For all the latest reality TV cast member news, scandals, gossip and updates \u2013 like <a href=\"https:\/\/realitytvshrine.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Reality Shrine<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/realityshrineofficial?rdid=TzQu2kEd2cUqU4rD&amp;share_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fshare%2F14zX5cKubf%2F#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>                                                  &#13;<br \/>\n                &#13;<\/p>\n<p>\t\tPost navigation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; Filip from Love Is Blind: Poland revealed he lost his sight for two years, and managed to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6090,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[4921,877,9],"class_list":{"0":"post-6089","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-poland","8":"tag-love-is-blind-poland","9":"tag-netflix","10":"tag-poland"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6089","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6089"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6089\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6090"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6089"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6089"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/poland\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6089"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
