Today after my workout, I took a shower in the locker room of my YMCA. Everything was going well until I realized that muscles had forever changed my body! Why didn't anyone tell me that I'd have a huge cavern under my arm that I would have to relearn how to shave? My life is ruined!!! ;-)

    Use a sharper razor and prepare the area beforehand.

    I feel your pain, it's so hard to get it all with all those new grooves and dips. I always seem to end up missing some spots. The perils of weight loss hey :smile:

    Gillette Fusion razors are the best ones I've found so far.

    And for a quick lesson in razor care:

    One of the biggest misconceptions people have about razors is that their hair dulls the blade. This is not true. What dulls the blade is being exposed to moisture and dirt which causes micro-rusting and pitting on the razor edge. So storing your razor in the shower or steamy bathroom is a bad idea.

    So shave, clean your razor with a dry, clean cloth, and blow dry it for maximum longevity. It should last between 1-2 years per razor this way. For storing, keep it in the medicine cabinet or head down in a small cup of rice on the counter.

    It's all about laser hair removal if you can get a deal. Do it.
