Sweat a lot
Replies

I sweat a lot, and pretty easily too. I get very embarrassed by it, because I don't even have to exert myself very much and I start sweating. I know it's not just me though, my mom said my dad used to sweat a lot (thanks, Dad!) and both of my sons sweat a lot. One of the little girls in my son's preschool class even commented on how sweaty he is! I feel your sweaty pain!0

I sweat like crazy when I work out. I'm covered in sweat after about 10 minutes of cardio. Meanwhile, my boyfriend NEVER sweats so I feel twice as disgusting. As an added bonus, I turn the worst shade of red ever. It looks like I'm about to have a stroke. Regardless, now that I'm feeling better about my body I get kind of proud of my sweat. It makes me feel like I'm earning a healthy body. Rock them sweaty pits!!0

I don't mind the sweating whilst exercising, it's the continued sweating after I've stopped. It can continue up to an hour after I've finished a run. And that's after a cold shower for fifteen minutes.
It seems to be getting worse the fitter I'm getting as well.0 -
Even my eyebrows and fingers sweat!!! And, I'm at my goal weight. Fat or not, I am a sweater. It's just your body's way of regulating its temperature, cooling itself down. Still, it makes me feel like I'm getting a killer workout!!0

I on the other hand with I could sweat! At the gym everyone else is sweating, but not me. I'm working hard, losing weight, killing myself on the machines...no sweat. Everyone is different I suppose.
Same here! Everyone else is sweating like pigs & dripping everywhere (esp the guys)....I'm cool as a cuke....yet I'm working my butt off. Perhaps I need to work it a bit more.....
Even did circuits the other day following in one bloke's sweat.....:grumble:

I've noticed that too....it seems that the fitter I seem to be getting the more I sweat.
When I do my cardio I have to plan what I'm going to wear and specifically bear in mind the amount that I sweat so that I don't wear something that will show it too badly, because when I'm done running everything I'm wearing is soaked through!0 -
I'm one of those people who leaves puddles around the machines, yes. Always have been.
I really feel bad when people walk by my treadmill if I'm running that day, as they are no doubt getting my sweat on them from my drippy, swinging arms.0 -
Does anyone else have a problem with sweating a lot? I have always had this problem and honestly can't remember if I had it when I was thin (so many years ago). But to be honest, it is almost embarrassing. I look around in the gym and it seems like I am the only one soaked. I don't want it to intimidate me from going to the gym and I when I go to the gym, I want to work out hard and not worry about it.
Don't "sweat it"!!! I sweat just standing still. Though I am on the large side!0 -
BTW. Sweating is actually good for you!0

I also sweat TONS. It's probably just genetics (my dad and my mom drip sweat too). I don't mind sweating at the gym as long as it doesn't smell- and to avoid smell I wash regularly. If I find I'm still in a stinky place I wash with antibacterial soap (kills the smell causing germs) and I'm a sweaty, smell-less girl. That's enough for me0

embarrassing? That's an accomplishment. You earned that sweat. That's what you're there to do. You should be prideful about it! You exerted that much more effort!0

I sweat the same way. It ends up looking like I showered in my clothes.
OMG! Me too!0 -

Your not the only one.
I've always been like this. I moved furniture when I was younger, I had to bring two shirts, because first shirt was always soaked.
After playing hockey, I would have a shower, and like you 15 mins later I will still be sweating.
Just the way it is.0 -
I sweat whenever I do ANYTHING. At shows, I often come dressed in my rags, because once I bring my amp and guitars in, accessories, set them up, settle in, I have sweat like I just ran a few miles. Dead serious. It's miserable sometimes, because I sweat when I'm not supposed to. I can sweat in an air conditioned room! Some of it is because I'm overweight and some of it is because the south is the worst place ever for humidity, lol. I often bring just a cup FULL of ice with me to try and keep my body cool.0

OMG! I sweat profusely! No glistening here. I sweat more than some men, I think. Even when I'm at the skating rink. I'm working just as hard as the other skaters in the session. Yet I'm the only one pouring buckets of sweat. I bring a towel to wipe off (and I usually use my gloves, too, to wipe away the sweat). When I get really working hard, my head even starts to steam. My hair is soaked yet the cold air causes steam to rise from my head. Oh well. Not much I can do about it.0

I don't necessarily sweat a lot, but what I do sweat stinks!!!!!!!! I have to change deodorants every few weeks! Sheesh!0

I also sweat a lot. I just let people assume it's because I'm working harder than they are.0

FYI,
Just something that I would mention because I wasn't aware.
Deodorant doesn't last 8 hours with me. I start smelling BO on myself later in the day.
Then I got explained the difference between deodorant and antiperspirants.
I know a male friend I sometimes see, who I know uses deodorant because in the evenings he smells. The next time I see him in a private setting, I will let him know about antiperspirants.
For the men.
I use an Gilette triple action and love it. It has antiperspirants with deodorant.0 -
What's the phrase? Sweat is fat crying?
I sweat when I run, I call it my 'dazzle' it's like the Tw*l*ght vampires but not lame like their glittered up selves.0 -
I sweat like a freaking pig no matter what I do.. and it's disgusting to me.
When ever I see my trainer, I'm like a freaking puddle by the end of our session while all the other girls with their trainers are barely spouting anything.... makes me feel like I'm working harder, but still.. :huh:0
