Before <before surgery> After <after surgery>Hello. Before I knew it, I’m back with my 2-week review!
1. Bruising, swelling I think almost all of it is gone. I think it’s because I wore my compression garment diligently.
2. Effect My upper-arm circumference decreased from 37.5 cm, 38 cm > 30 cm, 30 cm My weight is 79.7 kg > 75.2 kg
Usually stitches are removed on day 10, but at this clinic they remove them at week 2. Since my wounds don’t heal quickly, I think I especially liked this point.
There are 6 aftercare sessions, and I think this is also very good.
For diet management, I ate pork belly and salad, and because pork belly has almost no carbohydrates, if you do it well, you actually lose weight. I worried a lot about salad dressing, but I mainly keep carbohydrates in mind and use sesame dressing, so I’m dieting comfortably. When I really crave something sweet, I think I mostly enjoy cacao chocolate and zero-calorie drinks!!
The short-sleeved T-shirt I usually wore, which used to fit very tightly around my arms, has become a bit loose, so I’ll keep watching a little longer and leave another review on whether there’s more effect or not!
