Drink plenty of Water. I also use a skin firming body lotion every night and I use palmers body oil to help with stretch marks.

The fact is skin elasticity is determined by genetics and your age. Some skin will snap back quickly, some slowly, and some not at all. Back2fit is correct that weight training helps reduce the appearance of loose skin- filling the empty skin with muscle mass helps.

It depends on how far along you are, are you done losing, etc., before you'll know how your skin handles the loss.
