The best way to try to prevent hanging skin when losing weight is to lose it very slowly. Most people lose too much weight too fast, and their skin doesn't have time to get used to their new weight, giving them loose skin. You should try to lose about 2 or 3 pounds per week, maximum.

If you lose a lot of weight - will you have extra skin and have to get it cut off?

The skin is elastic to an extraordinary degree. In the only situations in which weight loss may cause detached skin is if either you loose weight too fast (over 6 lb /3 Kg a week) or if you have lost skin elasticity due to aging. Otherwise the skin will adapt to your new shape. If you notice you are losing weight at a fast rate, it is recommended that you use a creme or something on your skin to prevent extra skin and stretch marks. In some wrongly performed cosmetic surgery procedures as excessive liposuction, there is a risk of skin detachment if you don't use a compressing belt for a while afterwards.
