How close to my goal weight should I be before a BBL?

January 19, 2018
Asked By:Luna_xo in Beverly Hills, CA

I have been thinking about getting a BBL for a year or so now and think I will go through with it. I am concerned though, how close to my goal weight should I be? I am 5'5 and look good/ feel good at 150-160. I gained a lot of weight (now 180) during a dark period but now I am eating right and working out again. How close to my goal weight should I get? I'd like to book my surgery in May but it all depends on the weight thing. Thanks!
