Plastic surgery after major weight loss

So I have 53lbs to lose to my goal. After getting a "mini" abdominoplasty after c-section complications, the results have me thinking. I would love a breast lift and I have always had the fat "apron" the skin would be terrible looking. Does anyone else plan on getting surgery when their weight loss goals are achieved?

    I lost 130 with weight loss surgery 10 years ago. I got a 360 tummy tuck and a breast lift/Implant and it was the best decision of my life.

    I personally will look into it if my skin does not bounce back and I have medical issues.

    I've been overweight now for about 10 years so I may have a chance to be one of those lucky people who's skin magically just looks great after losing weight...and I may not. I'm kind of afraid of major surgery so if it's a little bit of loose skin, then no I probably wouldn't. But if there was a significant amount of loose skin and my shape and curve of my breasts were gone and I struggled with clothing fitting properly and skin issues, yep I would definitely do it.

    The last time I lost a lot of weight (about 8 years ago), I lost over 120lbs. My reward was to get a breast lift and implants. I got them, I love them.

    If my skin doesn't bounce back then I will consider a nip/tuck.
