So I am not sure if I am imagining this or what- but when I eat maple oatmeal in the morning I swear my sweat at the gym (about 45 mins-2hours later) smells like it. Same with the strawberries and cream..Has anyone has anything like this or is it all in my head? hahah

    I don't think it's in your head - I've had certain odors do that before. I think it just depends. If it's a really potent odor or maybe if you drink a lot of water. I dunno. lol.

    just to be safe, avoid sardiens before the gym.

  • I knew someone who used to eat a lot of canned tuna for protein while trying to get into shape and going to the gym. Their sweat smelt like canned tuna after hitting the gym.

    When I drink a load of coffee....I have coffee scented #1. That's something special right there.
