Menopause Weight Gain, When To Have Surgery?

mitinapot
I am in perimenopause period right now and I hate the appearance of my abdomen and love handles. I have been very serious about liposuction. Even if I diet and excercise I don't know if I can control my weight gain during menopause. Should I wait until post menopause to have it done. I have been in my perfect weight since highschool and right now I am 27 BMI. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
