BBL or Tummy Tuck first? I will be having a MM w/ an extended tmy tuck, but first a bbl. I have diastis recti. (photo)

I plan on losing about 20 more pounds. I have an extremely saggy belly, I know my belly and flanks will sag more after the bbl. In all honesty, would a bbl actually help me? My butt will be flatter after weight loss. Will having the bbl first also help with a better t tuck outcome? Or should I have a tummy tuck first? I'm afraid of more loose skin if ttuck first, then bbl. Can all that fat on my abdomen and flanks be used?
