NSV - an end to chub rub

edited December 24 in Success Stories
Yesterday I wore a skirt and today I wore a dress without the aid of tights, talcum powder, Lanacane Anti-Chafe or those special long legged knickers that you have to be really, really sure you're not going to get lucky when wearing (I had six pairs...).

Result - no chub rub. No raw, red welts. No having to sleep on my back like a starfish. No mid-evening cold showers. No Sudocrem. No having to avoid the aforementioned getting lucky.

I didn't even have to choose between those two special walks. You know, the mincing one you do to avoid your stuck-together thighs tearing flesh, or the overly-long stride to try and get some air to your unlucky inner thighs in the hope they slip past each other like a pair of friendly eels.

Shame half a Feast ice lolly melted off the stick and into the lap of my mostly white dress.

    Lol, never has a truer paragraph (or three) been written! Here I was thinking I was the only one that knew the two types of chafe walks!

    Well done and I can't wait til I'm there too! :-)

    I've been lighter than this before and was still doing the silly walks, so I can only put it down to weight training, mainly Body Pump and kettlebells.

    I think your awesome for talking about this. My only goal (other than to make the men drool) is to be able to wear dresses and skirts without suffering from the aptly named chub rub (hadn't heard this before today) I am envious of you and also very happy for you

    You must be so proud of yourself! I am happy for you. I think those knickers are called spanks in the U.S. which gives me a better idea of what you are talking about. I own spanks to hide the fat and I can't wait until I don't need them lol! Good for you!:smile:
