So I am wondering if anyone has dealt with this and has any suggestions. My arm pits sweat A LOT--not all the time--but not related to being warm or exercise--and now that it's warmer weather I have to be careful what tops I wear so you don't see the big sweat stains. I use to think this was related to being obese, but I'm not obese anymore and it still happens--any ideas?? I have tried switching deoderants/antipersperants.

Armpits, folds in skin, they all seem more prone to trouble right now than before WLS. But I suspect this is tempary while your body if adjusting.
