Default Worry about loose skin

Can anyone give me any advice about ways to prevent loose skin? Any supplements, miracle pills or prevention ideas? My biggest nightmare is that when I reach goal, there will be this huge puddle of skin down around my ankles, and I will have to pull it up and gather it into a pony tail on the top of my head! Surgery is financially NOT an option, so I want to do all I can. I know the following factors help-
Slow loss
Exercise
Lots of H20
Keep skin well lubricated
Youth if ya got it! (I don't)
Protein (we ALL got that)

Any other ideas or experience out there?Can anyone direct me to other posts on this topic? Of course, I would rather be thin and wrinkled than fat and firm, but I keep thinking of that pony tail.......
Hugs,
Kat
