I Have a Consult Scheduled, Panniculectomy or Full Abdominoplasty Needed? (photo)

Nottyourraverage
5'3, highest weight 319, after pregnancy and weight loss, i've been stable at 220 lbs - stubbornly for the past 11 months. I walk 5 miles on a daily basis & Power 90 which got me to 220 lbs w/out surgery. I've got the apron of skin/fat hanging over my hips/public area. I have a consult scheduled locally but i'm worried my BMI is still too high (38) to have a successful consult resulting in having either surgery scheduled. I'd just like to stop the slapping of skin when I walk & feel better.
