Unhappy really bad skin breakouts since dieting..

i dont know what it is but for the past couple of weeks ive had awfull spots on my face and back and i cant think of anything im doing to cause them.

- i eat plenty of fruit and veg lots more than the recommended "5 a day"
- i consume tons of water about 5 pints daily
- before i go to the gym i bath when i go i take two towels with me one to wipe myself (mopping sweat of course) with the other to wipe equipment down and then when i come home from the gym i shower
- i know i dont eat enough fat so i take some natural remedy tablets from holland and barret to help control the skin

please help?
-emma

I'd stop mopping yourself -- especially your face with a towel - and keep your hair off your face...

with regards to the breakouts on your back -have you changed laundry detergent recently? and is your tshirt that you wear to the gym - on with wicking action or is it just a plain old sweat absorbing t?

Is there any time where you really notice the breakouts?

you sure there's nothing in pills you're taking that doesn't agree with your body? natural doesn't always mean good for you... I have a lot of sensitivities to "fillers" that are in a lot of vitamins...

well usually around my period but im not due on for another two weeks but it seemed to be clearing up yesterday but this morning i woke with a couple of new friends mostly around my jaw and a big one on my cheek, do you think that because of all the fruity acid in my saliva could possibly cause them if i drool in the night lol ?

It might be that your body is detoxing or something... like exiting through your pores when you sweat. that's my only guess in which case you just have to wait it through.

I guess I'll add my two cents here since I had this problem recently too.

I've gone through everything from washing my face 10 times a day to not washing my face but every 2 days...trying this cream and that wash and this pill and that plan. Nothing worked. Up until recently, I was seeing more than my fair share of outbreaks mostly on my face. It's gotten worse since my birth control is injectable and I do not have regular periods any longer. I, on a whim, tried using emu oil on my face 1-2 times daily. It's been 10 days. My face is entirely clear. I purchased the refined item off of ebay for $7 expecting that it wouldn't work. Years ago I used a makeup that was emu oil based and my skin was perfect. Since I've ceased using that makeup (too busy for makeup where I work), it's stopped being produced and my skin went back to hell. So, I tried just the oil and it's made drastic improvements. I also hear that tea tree oil will do the same thing...but I can attest to the emu oil working. You might give it a shot. It's rumored to do other things too such as improve skin tone, make you look younger, reduce inflammation, etc. Do research before trying it...but it's worked for me

I'd agree that it's likely to be a detox reaction. Keep waiting and it will clear up, and you'll have even better skin.

OR you could add in a bit of junk food and 'wean' off it.

OR it could be totally unrelated and you're just going through a hormonal patch.

I have skin problems and the sweat tends to react with my skin. Im with Mal on this. I use half my towel to wipe off sweat, and i squirt my water bottle on the other half to actualy wash my face a couple of times during exercise.
However also as somebody said, could be detox also, or an allergy to something you normally dont eat in large quantities.
