That is a big concern of mine too.

I have lost 147 lbs with 28 more to go... My skin is not as bad as some pics that I have seen but I'm definatly going to consider a boob lift and tummy tuck

Not a whole lot can fix extra skin besides surgery but it has a lot to do with age, amount of weight lost, genetics, etc. You can get a good body cream and drink tons of water. I know I get really wrinkly when I don't. It also can take up to two years for your skin to adjust as much as it can or will. Have some patience, keep hydrated and use moisturizer with a firming agent. Working out with weights is also helpful. Good luck!
