Butt cushion recommendations?



Recommended Posts

As I am losing weight, my office chair at work is rather painful.

I got an egg crate cushion but it hasn't helped much.

What are you using??

I recently got the Millard memory foam seat cushion. I paid $24.99 and it's very comfortable.

Try a donut cushion which has the hole in the centre so there is no pressure at all on your tail bone. This is where your butt pain originates.

I bought two coccyx pillows when this started happening to me - one for my office chair, and one for my car. I still use them almost eight years later (or at least in the car. I'm now retired). In general my butt doesn't hurt as much as it did (maybe I just figured out how to sit to avoid the pain?), but long-ish trips in the car will still do it to me, so I still use the pillow. Coccyx pillows look like this. The "U" part goes in the back.

If it's your sit bones bothering you - get used to the pressure. I'd recommend long bike rides for this. (Only half kidding here.)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
