Shaving - Arm"pits"



Recommended Posts

Okay ladies - is anyone having difficulty shaving your armpits after surgery? I am finding that I am constantly missing the deeper crease near my back. I can't contort myself enough to get that spot no matter what I do. It is like a game of twister in the shower to try and bend enough to get into the new creases.

Please share your shaving secrets if you have any!

I'm the opposite now, I can finally shave my armpits in the shower and not over the sink. Before I needed a mirror to make sure I didn't miss any spots. I will say that I could see how excess skin could really get in the way....time will tell!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
