I'm 40lbs over my ideal weight and have severe lordosis. Am I a candidate for liposuction? What would my end results be? (Photo)

Savo
I am 40 lbs over my ideal (skinny) weight with a bmi of 28. I have severe lordosis therefore my stomach muscles have been weak as long as I remember and now that I am 40 lbs over, my stomach is really protruding specially when i sit down. I havent had kids yet therefore abdominoplasty is not an option for me yet. I want to know if liposuction is the right choice and how good my results would be?
