Am I a good candidate for tummy tuck after 80lb weight loss? (photos)

Asked By:Nurturing157593 in England, United Kingdom

I have lost over 80 lbs and my bmi currently sits around 31.8. I have plateaued for a year now and can’t seem to shift any more. I hate my body more the more I lose! But am worried as my bmi is still high that I won’t be happy with my result. I am still around 20 - 25lbs from target but am losing motivation fast with no more weight budging. I am also looking for a breast lift with implants! Am I a good candidate even with my BMI being over 30? I just want to get my motivation back & love my body
