Does Loss of 200+ Pounds Often Require 2 Tummy Tucks?

I have lost 113 pounds (32 before surgery) at almost 3 1/2 months out and have a LARGE panni. I have always carried most of my weight in my stomach. It is WAYYYY out of proportion with the rest of my body now and I know it will only get worse as I lose more weight. I researched the library and read where some surgeons are hesitant to do plastic surgery on people with large amounts of excess skin, so I am wondering if in these cases it is necessary to have more than one tummy tuck? Like have skin removal now or in a couple of months, then another one later when I reach goal. My stomach is driving me nuts. Slapping against my legs, rashes, etc. YUCK!! Just curious and hoping to hear from some of you who were in my situation and are now at goal. Thanks so much!!
