I'm slightly overweight but had to maintain my weight to make sure I have enough fat for my Brazilian Butt Lift. Need to lose weight after surgery . If I make sure I get enough protein, vitamins and minerals during my recovery process can I start cutting calories immediately after surgery?

I tell my patients to discontinue smoking (including marijuana) at least 2 weeks before and after surgery. Each surgeon has their own guidlines you should feel comfortable discussing this with your surgeon.
