Breast Reduction from G Cup: What Size is Appropriate

Suzie in New York
I am 37 years old, 5'7", 158 lbs, 36G (increased from 32F prior to kids). My goal weight is 135 lbs and I am now losing weight. What type of breast reduction is most appropriate for me, what is the approx cost, and is it likely to be covered by insurance? Is liposuction an option? What size breast would you recommend I go down to?
