Do you use a standing desk? I just got one, but it’s not helping my back pain. How do you guys just stand up straight? Lol. I notice i keep shifting my weight to one side and now my hips are killing me. Am I just a weirdo or do you have to remind yourself to stand straight and balanced?

About a year ago I started getting massages. It took multiple sessions but I can physically stand up straighter today than I have been able to in the last 2 or 3 years. If you've had back pain for a long time, just standing more or stretching may not be enough

See a chiro or PT for some alignment help?

I did a few sessions of physical therapy, they helped set up exercise plan for the weak muscles that needed to bulk up in order for me to fix my posture. Essentially after years of bad posture, some muscles were overwhelmed and caused pain, while others got weak and can’t support proper posture anymore.

a standing desk isnt going to help with back problems - look up Stuart McGill and do the "Big 3"

Get some exercise in, standing desk alone won’t help

Stand with a wider stance so you don’t lean to one side?

Chiropractor 100%. I use to go long time ago. Quit for a few years and started back just before thanksgiving. Took a few weeks to a month to start noticing the difference as I knew it would but gosh it is amazing. Should have never stopped going 🤦🏼‍♀️

Rant: my boyfriend is so annoying with this diet! I GET IT. You want to eat healthy! But when you have your friends at our place every other weekend they order pizza and you devour most of 2 boxes!

Then if I order something for me he wants half or bites! Sick of it!!!

I need to let it out but I’m so fucking proud of myself and I just realized how lucky I got and it took me until just now to see it.

My transition went from: $13 an hour part time, separation with the wife, new job at $18 an hour for physical labor, hit with disability diagnosis, then $20 an hour new office job, reconnecting with wife, having 2nd kid, nearly divorcing (cont.)

Not the results I was hoping for this morning. Went for my first appointment before starting injections this evening. Only 9 follicles. Was told birth control can suppress some so they may just not be visible yet but feeling very panicked now despite the doctor saying it was ok for my age.

This journey is taxing.
