Carb Free Diet After BodyTite Liposuction?

pennieblack
Hi,I had Bodytite liposuction on my thighs yesterday,and was told on leaving that I should follow a carb free diet for 4 weeks!I'm just not understanding the relevence to this?I'm not a big meat eater and my diet is healthy as agreed with my GP so I really don't understand why no carbs would benefit!It concerns me as I train a lot and feel that my energy levels when training would be next to nil! I would be so grateful if someone could explain my query.
