Dear Judy,
Don't know why your doc prefers this other than the hope that the better shape you are in before having surgery, the easier your recovery will be. You can have reconstruction at your current weight and should do just fine. The literature says that you may have a harder time healing your tummy than those who are lighter but I have done reconstructions on many women of your stature who had an uneventful recovery.
Hope this helps,
Yours,
Dr. D
