Still about 25 lbs above goal weight - should I cancel my tummy tuck and breast lift?

January 15, 2018
Asked By:Ellie710 in Virginia, VA

I am 5'6" 170-175 lbs. Ideally I want to weigh 145 lbs. I have lost 140 lbs through diet and exercise from a high of 315 lbs. I was super excited for my surgery which is a month out but now I think I should just cancel it until I get to my goal weight based on everything that I have been reading. This is really depressing to me as it seems near impossible for me to break my plateau but I also don't want to waste my surgeons time or my own. Any advice would be appreciated - thank you.
