Do you shower before you go back to the office?
I WAH most of the time so it doesn't matter but I need to work at the office next month....

No, mainly because there are no shower facilities at my office. I pack a travel size deodorant in my purse and in a pinch wipe my underarms with hand sanitizer. If it's really hot or I'm really sweaty, I'll do a quick sink bath. It helps that we have private bathrooms.

I can't do a lunch hour workout. I sweat WAY worse now than before having J and I wouldn't have enough time to get a decent workout in and still look professional after. Sad face.

When I work out I get all sweaty and my face gets red. Plus I have really long hair that takes forever to dry, so there's no way I can ever workout in the middle of my work day!

No showering for me. I thought this was super gross when I first changed jobs, but a bunch of people at my office all go to work out at lunch together, so I just went with the flow and then got used to it. I'd take a towel, change out of my sports bra, reapply deodorant and good to go! I still think it's a little gross, but whatever. I just try to avoid scheduling meetings with outside clients in the afternoons!

I take a full shower, including washing my hair. I don't reapply makeup though.

Back in the day before we had our dog and I didn't go home for lunch to walk him, I used to run a 6km run over my lunch hour and never showered. I was (pre-preg) one of those weirdo's who never sweat, and it was super awesome for those runs! I was always conscious to do a solid cool out so I wasn't warm getting back into work clothes!

When I used to pre-baby, I'd shower at lunch too.
Then I stopped taking long lunches, and had a baby, and my sweat glands decided to go in over drive.
I couldn't push it on an office day nowadays

No showering. It helps that I don't sweat a ton, but I do boot camp classes and spin at lunch so I definitely sweat some! I bring a towel and just dry off and sink wash up if necessary. Our work gym has hair dryers and flat irons so I dry my hair and re flat iron if I'm wearing it straight and put on powder.

@mrsjyw: Yeah, maybe I shouldn't...I sweat more now and I don't want to offend coworkers with baby wipe baths!
