I’m 200lbs, 5’4 & desperate for a tummy tuck - please advise (Photos)

I’ve lost 68lbs and my weight is very consistently 200lbs exactly. I’ve sent my pictures to a couple plastic surgeons and they have turned me down for being over the bmi. Under all this fat I have a very athletic build and I gain muscle quickly. So I feel like there shouldn’t be an issue with my getting a tummy tuck at my stable weight of 200lbs. Would I like to be smaller? Yes. But I also think the Timmy tuck would give me that boost I need to lose more weight! Please advise!
