After being away from the spotlight for a few years, the busty star wants to regain her physique.
At the height of her popularity in the mid 2000s, Waka Inoue was one of Japan’s most popular gravure bikini models. The Tokyo-born Inoue wasn’t relying on any sort of waifish appeal, though, as her curvy proportions were often compared to those of Marilyn Monroe.

However, Inoue didn’t maintain the exact same physique after effectively retiring from the modeling word, getting married, and giving birth to her first child in 2015.
With her 40th birthday coming next spring, though, Inoue wanted to get back into slimmer shape, and that lead to a partnership with Rizap, Japan’s highest-profile provider of combined diet/fitness weight-loss plans and systems. So far, Inoue is three months into her program, but she’s already showing off some impressive results in a series of before/after videos.

Inoue’s success so far has also been chronicled in numerical form, as she says that since starting her Rizap regimen she’s lost 9.7 kilograms (21.3 pounds) and cut her body fat ratio by 11.7 percent, both extremely impressive for quarter-year progress.

As with any diet success story, it’s important to remember that individual results will vary, and, as is the norm for before/after photo comparisons, in her after photos Inoue’s posture is straighter, her make-up and hairstyling more involved, and her smile bigger, which does a lot to make a person appear more confident and good-looking, regardless of their weight and muscle mass. Still, Inoue is crediting her return to swimsuit-model form to Rizap, just like fellow gravure star Ami Kikuchi.
