When After a BBL Can I Start to Diet and Exercise?

Hi, two years ago I lost 85 pounds after dieting and excercising reaching my ideal weight of 135 at 5'4. With lots of excess skin and sagging breasts I had a tummy tuck and Breastlift and augmentation to fantastic results. My butt however was still quite saggy and I opted for butt implants and they became infected so took them out. 2 years later I gained 40 pounds and just had a butt lift done with 450 cc in each side.... When can I start to diet and exercise to get back to my ideal weight? Thx
