With the last 10 pounds of weight loss my calves are wrinkly! Thought I am pear shaped , I never thought that my calves where especially large so I wasn't expecting this. My thighs look like they are melting and while my upper abdominal skin was really loose it is definitely looking toned up now... Alas, I can't say the same about my lower abs! I am hoping my calves will tighten up. Will they?

Mine filled out and at one time they were just two flaps of skin hanging on back of my legs. I did a lot of weight machines and cardio machines.

The same with my upper arms. Anytime I am losing I do a lot of upper arm exercises and machines.

Do calf raises. That will help. You can use the bottom step of your stairs at home - do sets of 10 and add dumbbells or a 5 lb bag of flour if it gets too easy. http://www.muscleandfitness.com/workouts/leg-exercises/videos/standing-calf-raise

Keep on losing!
