This is becoming a very popular surgery. Without meeting you, I cannot say how much fat we can transfer. Based on your photos, it appears that we could take some fat from the abdominal area, inner, outer thighs, and knees. I would hope to transfer 600 cc to 800...
Here in Florida, the limit is actually only 4 litres of "floating fat" which can be removed as an outpatient, or just a mere 1 litre if the liposuction is combined with another procedure. But for most people, a 4 litre liposuction gives a pretty dramatic result.
I don't think it makes much difference how soon you decide to loose weight but would wait at least 3 weeks to recover from your surgery.As you loose weight, your fat transfer will theoretically also shrink proportionately in volume. There is not set answer about the amount...
