Sensitive improvement

[Sunny_0ne]

I REALLY hate to post this on a public board, but it's important enough that I'm going to blush and do it anyway.

I was starting to get a funky body odor. It was getting progressively worse over the past few months, to the point I sometimes took two showers a day just to make sure I smelled clean.

Since I've been on Atkins, the odor has completely disappeared.

I don't have an explanation, but it sure is good to smell good again!

That's good news Sunny!
Actually, I too noticed a reduction in body odour since doing Atkins, but as my beginning the programme coincided with perimenopause (and now menopause), I thought that maybe this was the reason. Maybe it's Atkins though that turns our armpits into our charmpits!

I needed a belly laugh today.... and that did it!!!!!

In my case, Atkins was the only variable since I am well past the other two milestones.

Although I did see a documentary several years ago that said that the scent of elderly ladies' armpits was comforting to babies!

I'm doing that "take a step back " cause I've got Keto breath. LOL Charmpits.

Charmpits huh? That's not exactly what I'd call mine but their not that bad. My dh had a problem though that made him smell like cat urine. It was disgusting! But we realized it was caused by the fish oil supplement he was taking, so he quit them and is fine now, thank God! Are you taking fish oil?

Ewwwww! Cat urine is one of the worst smells! Poor DH!

No, I don't take fish supplements... if you were asking me. I do try to eat canned salmon with bones and skin once a week, though.

Desertthorn, I do the step back and "Don't kiss me in the morning" routine, too! But is it ever worth it!

Other than that, I smell great!
