[quote=Anonymous]As a former fatty myself, here are some thoughts -

Exercise when you are overweight is really hard.  I mean it takes a lot more effort to do anything physical. I recall even standing up doing 10 minutes of housework left me tired!  I know it sounds pathetic and it is but it is really true.  So every time I thought about exercising I didn't because I knew that I really could only probably do like a few minutes worth and everything I read said "do 30 minutes".  It was really tough and embarrassing to even go out for a walk in the neighborhood because I knew that neighbors would see me and I worried they would think why did I just walk a few blocks and come home. Sure, it's easy to say I shouldn't have worried, etc but you know when you are fat, you already stick out enough and doing anything that will make you stick out more just sucks.

What helped was finally just letting go of the idea of exercise until I lost enough weight that it wasn't painful (for me it was @50 lbs).  I instead focused on changing eating which was much better approach.

In terms of hygiene, it might not be lack of wiping but yeast infection (in skin folds) and sweat that you are smelling.  It was something that I didn't even realize could happen and was smelling because you always smell odors on yourself last. I realized it when I caught a whiff of clothing I was putting in the laundry.   The best advice for this is shower daily, make sure to dry all skin folds, no tight clothes especially in the thigh area, wash/dry clean clothes - especially pants - after each wear, stick with cotton fabrics, for infection or red areas in skin folds are chaffing, use an anti-fungal cream over the counter, if it doesn't work, see a doctor.
