I'm just going to call all of them (my company will think I'm still driving around for face-to-face meeings!) and be like, "I am a humongous sweaty walrus, so is there anything that you need that I can take care of for you over the phone?" And they all laugh and are totally expecting it:) So I've just got a little over 2 months of deoderant on the thighs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263355 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 12:36:54 +0000 dagret 263355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: you poor thing. Yeah shower to shower reminds me of my grandma. </p> <p>My legs stick togethere when I'm driving but I've noticed that I squish them together at the knees!. I have to make a concentrated effort to keep them apart and it helps, as does pointing an air vent in that direction.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263352 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 12:32:23 +0000 PrincessBaby 263352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dagret: Powder just makes me think of my Dad, lol. He uses gold bond...I don't have an issue with chafing, it's just wetness and that odor! I'm pretty sure it's because I'm driving around all day in the hot FL sun, so the sun is on my legs and they're really close together while I'm driving. I also feel like my car never cools off because as soon as the a/c cools it down, I'm parked and out at the next account -walking in hot parking lots, etc. Then I get back into my hot car after seeing the dr, and rinse and repeat:) And I guess it's only going to get worse! September is the most miserable month in FL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263351 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 12:27:08 +0000 dagret 263351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: I'm sorry I'm lol-ing at the mental image of you rubbing deodorant on your thighs. But I'm sure I will be there soon. Have you thought of trying body powder like gold bond or shower to shower? (nasty name but it would probably help with the wetness/chafing, obviously just on your legs not your lady bits) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263348 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 12:20:08 +0000 PrincessBaby 263348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pregnancy has brought out the gross in me for sweating! I was okay pre-preg, but I'm about to share something very gross. The biggest problem I have lately is that I will sweat between my thighs a lot (I only wear dresses to work and I'm in and out of the car a lot/walking a lot bc I'm in sales), and not only do my inner thighs get sweaty, but my underwear will be soaked through by the end of the day! SO nasty!!!</p> <p>The grossest thing ever is that sometimes I even notice a slight BO smell after sweating all day! I got paranoid and started rubbing deoderant on the insides of my legs!</p> <p>Now you can all gag because I'm so gross! LOL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263342 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 12:11:26 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 263342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't sweat much at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263339 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 12:08:28 +0000 meredithNYC 263339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! So much! The worst is the back sweat, where you can just feel it dripping. Ugh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263332 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 12:03:01 +0000 Mrs. Pen 263332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dagret: @mrbee: DH is the same way!! He doesn't ever smell bad... </p> <p>I totally do... it's awful. I do wonder if I have hyper-hydrosis because it has been such a problem. I have even tried using clinical protection and it doesn't work. I'm so torn because I don't like using the deodorants with aluminum in them (any anti-perspirant) but nothing else works at all!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263295 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 11:16:23 +0000 chopsuey 263295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did for a few months post baby </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263271 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 10:38:00 +0000 autumnlove 263271@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only after having a baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263248 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 09:58:40 +0000 SleepyMonkey 263248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my body doesn't sweat that much, but my face sweats A LOT. i guess it is compensating. my immediate family is like your husband - our armpits don't sweat all that much and when they do, they smell like sweat, so none of us wear deodorant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263237 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 09:34:53 +0000 dagret 263237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: he just smells like sweat, like him. I dunno. It's really weird.<br /> ETA: his sweat doesn't smell like BO. I swear, he is a freak of nature. Every other man I know could knock you over with pit stink. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263231 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 09:22:05 +0000 ladybee 263231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! I am with you. I can be freezing my butt off and my pits will still get stinky. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263229 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 09:21:08 +0000 mrbee 263229@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dagret: haha what is a pleasant stink?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-sweat-a-lot#post-263221 Sat, 18 Aug 2012 09:14:14 +0000 dagret 263221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I'm watching the news this morning and they're talking about Hillary Clinton. Someone told an anecdote about a photo shoot in India where everyone was sweating buckets and she was cool as a cucumber. Definitely a good trait to have as a Secretary of State... But it made me think. </p> <p>I sweat a LOT. Not excessively, where I get drippy at the end if the day or anything, but even at the end of a normal day, Pre-pregnancy, my pits are a little stinky at the end of the day,even with deodorant. To make matters worse, my husband is a freak of nature whose armpits DO NOT STINK unless he's been sweating buckets and buckets all day, and even then it's a pleasant stink not a nasty one. </p> <p>So...do you sweat a lot? </p>
