Am I a candidate for a Mommy Makeover after massive weight loss, or will I need separate body contouring procedures? (photo)

I have lost 175 pounds with the help of a RNY gastric bypass in 2002. I have also had 3 c-sections. I am 5'8", currently 155 pounds. It is my goal to weigh 140 pounds before surgery. I need to repair my arms, breasts (lift with augmentation), tummy, and thighs. Can these areas all be taken care of in one surgery like the Mommy Makeover, or should I expect to need separate upper and lower body lifts?
