Not to be too personal -- but do you get raw/red in your skin folds?
I am wondering if you may have a yeast overgrowth in you folds -- that is exacerbated by sweat and chafing. The diluted vinegar is good for this -- but also a good diaper rash cream with zinc oxide is also good. When I was very heavy, I did use the deodorant method suggested -- but if I was at all red or raw -- then I would go to Burt's Bee's diaper rash cream with a handkerchief (cotton) laid over the areas until it healed up. I found the smell was often from untreated skin/yeast infections in the folds.
:::hugs::: don't be embarrassed. Many of us have been there.
