Your BMI and Goal Weight Results
Your weight is 260 pounds.  Your ideal body weight is 142 pounds.  Thus, this means your "excess" weight is about 118 pounds.  Bariatric surgery might help you lose 90% of this excess weight,  meaning you might lose 106 pounds.
If you lost 106 pounds, then you would end up weighing 154 pounds. 154 pounds would thus be your "goal weight" for bariatric surgery.
Typically bariatric surgery patients lose this amount over the course of a 12 to 15 months, with slight fluctuations and possibly slight regain after that. Below is a graph of how your weight might change after surgery.
