Kris Aquino’s attempt at water physiotherapy led to a discussion of her weight loss, given that she appears slimmer in a swimsuit in her pictures. 

Aquino revealed on Instagram on Tuesday, June 25, that she tried to do water physiotherapy after mentioning in a previous post that she experienced a severe migraine the day before.

However, as she was still building up her balance and resistance, she ended up going to a deeper end of the pool, resulting in her sons Josh and Bimby assisting her to their jetted and heated whirlpool.

One fan (@claireclaraceline) expressed admiration for her body and skin. “I rarely see you in those skin-tight ensemble po and I must say that a good skin care routine really pays off.”

The TV host replied, “The unfortunate truth is I look good in videos and pictures because of my weight loss. In real life I don’t look that great.”

She said that at her height of 161.3 cm (around 5’3’”), her ideal weight on camera would be 120 pounds. However, she weighs between 113 and 116 pounds now and went as low as 108 pounds.

“If you’re observant, wala kaming (we do not have) pics showing my rear because I have zero booty,” she said. “I’m grateful numipis ang thighs and maliit ang arms (my thighs and arms are slimmer).”

She credited her clear skin to hypoallergenic products and drinking warm water throughout the day.

Aquino has been open about her experience with autoimmune issues, allergies to medicine and seeking medical help in Singapore. She said in a June 7 Facebook note that until now, there is no “definitive diagnosis” of her conditions.

She shared that she would be bedridden from fatigue or nausea and that she struggles with food consumption and proper sleep.

Aquino announced in the note she was “closing certain doors and windows into our lives” as she wanted to heal for her two children.  /ra
