well, thank you for your consideration. seriously.

i have a seriously overwt aunt, and she is aware that heavy people usually
have a yeast problem in the skin folds. she can bathe 100 times a day and
it
won't take care of the yeast odor. she needed a cream.

my husband has also told me that the 2 really overwt guys at work stink.
i told them that they probably have a yeast problem, but just how does one
go about telling them that? so it's not about bathing or deodorant.

if you are overwt enough to have folds of skin, pls find someone who can
be objective to tell you whether or not you smell funny. it can't be
someone
you're around all the time, because our noses learn to filter out stuff.
this is
why parisians can't smell themselves (they don't use deodorant), but a
tourist
on the train with them chokes.
