Have I lost enough weight to have a tummy tuck done?

I am almost 10 months out of WLS, and I will be having a hysterectomy performed in April. Currently, I am about 5 feet, seven inches tall, and I weigh about 225. I am pear shaped, and I have some loose skin on my stomach, but it is ugly looking. My gynecologist says she thinks I can have a tummy tuck done now, with great results. I have been working out, and weight lifting for a few months now, and she said she could feel a good muscle base underneath. I am fearing that I could get down to maybe 175 or lower and then what? Will I have hanging skin again? I am torn, because I know that if I have the tuck done in the future, I will be responsible for the entire cost, as if I have it done while the hysterectomy is being performed, the cost will be consideribly less. Any suggestions or comments will be very much appreciate. Thanks.
