How long after weight loss surgery did most people get a breast reduction. I am almost six months out and seriously thinking about getting one in the summer. Please advise!

Most likely, that will be too soon, although it won't be too earlier to start seeing plastic surgeons.

You probably want to hold off at least a year after the WLS to have plastics, and be relativley stable at a weight for six months.  Although there are some exceptions, such as if you anticipate have a lower body lift with redistribution of fat.

You do need to start documenting the problems your breasts are causing if you anticipate having your insurance pay for it, much the same as if you anticipate having panniculectomy.  Rashes, makes you sweat, body order, bra straps digging into your shoulders and leaving marks, back, shoulder and neck pain which requires medical treatment such as physical therapy or chiropractice treatment and the like.
