doxieville 799 Posted November 24, 2012 I am a little over 3 months post-op & have lost 50 pounds since this started around April. I'm quite happy with my weight loss even though it's slow, it's been consistent with about 2 pounds a week; I have 50 pounds to go. What I'm confused with is suddenly I have stinky armpits!! It started a few weeks ago. Maybe my fat is burning up stored stinky cells? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CBT 450 Posted November 24, 2012 It's the bacterial byproduct of being in ketosis. I use Mitchum, too. I've been known to "freshen up" my pits with hand sanitizer 0.O I carry Listerine, as well. life is a journey, not a destination; so, stop running -H.D.

CBT 450 Posted November 24, 2012 The bacteria are strong and concentrated! Make sure you are drinking 96oz of Water. Also try using dial soap or any antibacterial you like, daily. life is a journey, not a destination; so, stop running -H.D. THEROUX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
