Im about the same size and spent as much time at my computer. I went thru
half a dozen soft computer chairs which gave me nothing but pains. When the
last one broke I dragged a wooden chair out of the garage to use until I
could find another. Maybe its all the padding I already have *smile* but
for some reason Im more comfortable with this chair than I have with any
others. Before you buy an expensive one go find a big wooden strong wooden
kitchen chair at some garage sale and try that for a day.

-- EXCUSE ME?!? I HAVE a life Thank You Very MUCH!
(It's virtual, but it's a life.)
hey I am only 110kgs, I can fit in ordinary chairs but they do break after a
while and can be uncomfortable even after 30 minutes, I went to an old
second hand office furniture place and found a very large executive chair
with a high back and lots of padding, and I paid AUS$250 for it. so far I
had to get the legs re-welded and replace the wheels, I use a cover over it
because the old fashion covering is too rough and hot, and I use an extra
cushion to protect the seat cushion, but I can spend 20 hours in the chair
without sores, my skin still breathes and I have no discomfort what so ever,
another good thing about the chair is that it leans right back so I can
snooze in it. I am not disabled nor am I unfit (just pot bellied and heavy)
but the chair is exactly what you might need and I recommend looking for a
good second hand executive chair. a big overly cushioned one will do you
just fine, you may have to take it to a furniture repair shop like I did to
get it reinforced with better rollers.

Agreed here. I'm only 200lbs and chairs can get down right HARD to sit
on. I suggest buying a nice leather chair that is over stuffed. Take
it to your local metal shop (or do it yourself) and reinforce the whole
thing. I would suggest dropping the hydraulic lifting mechanism and
going for a wider pipe with a fatter base for the chair bottom.
I would also suggest that you get lumbar support...it seems to help.
While being fat isa factor, I think an even bigger factor with your char
problem is the amount of time you are in it. Using a chair constantly the way
you do causes it to wear out much faster thatn a chir that is use 6-8 hours
a day.
When shopping for a new chair, don't stop at the chair's weight limit, but ask
about the durability of the chair, and make sure the salesperson knows that
kind of use it will be getting. Some chairs are designed for heavier use.
If you are real lucky, you will find a salsperson that actually knows something
about chairs.

Or just avoid the stereotypical "office chair". Get one of the old
fashioned wooden executive chairs (the sort schoolteachers had a few
decades back). Ie, with a spin-to-adjust-height instead of pneumatics
for one thing. Or get a solid wooden chair with no wheels. You can
always add a cushion and lumbar support to an existing chair, so it
doesn't matter if it's cushioned. The fewer things that can break
down the better.
If you've got carpetting, get one of those hard plastic floor mats
designed for having rolling chairs on carpetting. It reduces wear on
the chair as well, and it's easier to scoot a chair without wheels
that way also.

Same here, I weigh about 315 after a haircut, and I've always used
cheap chairs. Sure, they break down after a few years, but you can
afford a new chair every few years at $60 a pop.
Of course, if I was disabled and had limited mobility, I could see why
chair integrity would be more important.

I'm under 200lb and every chair I buy seems nice at first but then goes flat
after 6 months. Not broken, but not as cushiony as it should be. Tempted
to slide the couch over.

I'm sure you know well enough by now to ignore all the assholes who don't
understand how life could be any different than they imagine it should be,
so I won't go into that.
I'm 385 lbs and have the same problem.
IMO, Herman Miller chairs are great for so-called normal people. I don't
like them -- they're actually painful for me to sit on -- and I'm not
suprised they wear out quickly.
What I have is an office chair made by HON that I've been using for about
four years, and it's great. Sturdy as a rock and comfortable too,
particularly in being wide enough not to cut off circulation to my legs.
Also noteable for the fact that the pneumatic height adjuster still works.
Its model number is: 6311.H.AB62.P71. I imagine HON has a website or phone
number where you could look this up. I expect that it's probably
expensive, but I bought it used when my company bought new office furniture
(now I have two -- one at home and one in office).
Alternatively, check out surplus stores or used furniture liquidators.
There are still tons of those generic steel swivel/roller chairs that are
built like tanks. I've used them before, with a pillow for extra lumbar
support. They're not springy like a pneumatic chair, but are height
adjustible (by spinning the wheelbase).
If you go with a used swivel chair, make sure the wheelbase has at least
five arms. The four-armed ones are dangerous, especially for big fellas
like us.
Good luck!

Losing weight can fix a lot of problems many of which are not minor
(health related issues). Easier said than done, though.

True but he didnt say he had such problems. But he did say he was
handicapped so a stringent diet and exercise program might be more than
its worth.
The weight isnt always a problem by itself. Im about the same weight and
my doctor would LOVE to find something to point at and say "see, you
need to lose weight". While my wife who is vegetarian, no salt, no
sugar, doing just about everything they tell her, seems to add a major
problem with every visit.

A lot of cheap chairs just have cheap foam for padding, and that

The problem is that it's not as easy as just saying it. The body is
programmed to horde calories, in anticipation of food shortages. When
you combine that with being shut in and unable to exercise, it takes
a superhuman amount of will to lose the weight. You might as well
just say "if I was hooked on heroin, I'd just stop".
its not about eating, its appetite vs. mentality vs. A19 influenza virus
(similar to chicken flu) vs. lack of motivation to exercise. there is no
simple cure as to "stop eating" and "go for a walk", these things only make
it worse as your metabolism changes to store more fat. obese peoples only
hope is to become fat, not obese.

If I get so poor that I cant just find a new chair instead of enjoying what
I eat then I would already BE on a diet. :)

Atkins sensible? That would be the same Atkins that is warned against

Man...as soon as I got out of the military I packed on 10lbs. I then
went on to shoot up to 230lbs, but I'm almost back down to my fighting
weight (185-190). I can say from experience:
1) It is hard to lose weight...even if you diet, exercise, and REALLY
want to
2) It is damn near impossible to be any ideal weight if you have a desk
job or you spend a lot of time sedentary (eg a college student around
finals)
3) About 25 your metabolism starts to ssssllllooooowwww
dddddoooowwwnnn. You can't eat a whole pizza and just shit it out
later.
4) Lifting weights makes it even harder to lose the weight. Not only
because you are gaining muscle mass, but because your body freaks out
and wants to store the fat "just in case."
5) Running is VERY hard on the back and knees, and after a couple of
injuries...I can't do it. I do elliptical machines, bikes, and I hike
for my aerobic exercise. I'll be damned if it is always enough though
and it is hard to find time when you work 12 hour days.

I've seen people who are very fat who never seem to do much more than
pick at their food. That is, they're not "stuffing their face." It
comes down to metabolism and activity. There are people who really
can't do much activity without becoming fatigued (chronic fatigue
syndrome, lyme disease, etc). There are also diabetics who can't cut
back food below a certain amount and still be healthy.

"Floyd here now!"
The first two weeks of Atkins are called induction. The medical
journals warn against this as it it possible it can raise cholesterol
and cause health problems in some people. The health journals also don't
look at net carbs, they just assume people are to lazy to figure it
out...I guess.
However, low carb diets aren't a fad, they are a fact. Low carb, low
sugar, and plenty of meats and a good portion of veggies is the way to
go. You are healthier and more fit, even on a higher calorie diet.
That is only to introduce your body to the diet. It is a two week
portion and not a life style.
Too true. I think a major problem for me was adjusting my life style to
a far lower cal and carb diet when I got out of the military. 'Course
another problem was those damn snack foods are so quick and easy when
you don't have time for lunch, but they are just as bad for you as a big
mac...and not a filling.
I've found that since I've had a good workout routine, if I miss a day I
get very...ants in the pantsy. I can't really focus and I have a hard
time with staying put (I have a desk job)...
Another problem a lot of people fall into is the sugar circle. It is a
viscous circle where you eat sugar to keep your high sugar levels up,
because when they drop to normal you feel bad. Kind of like a high, but
with sugar.
Here's a thought:
Bunboy was a chronic masturbator. Sitting down lit his wick. Leather
chairs gave him the ultimate charge. He'd sink his great hairy ass
into the buttery cow skin, breath a sigh of relief and say to his big
soft supple paw, "Yea, baby, let's get it on." He often practiced his
stroking motions on his Great Dane. He knew if he could get that
massive woofer off then he could give himself unfathomable pleasure.
As soon as the dog would shoot it's spooge into Bunboy's face, that
was all Bunboy needed to do to know he was ready. He plopped his
thunder thighs down into the Pleasurematic 5000, rubbed his hands
together and went to town on his skin trumpet. "Yea, yea! I'm
sitting down, baby, I'm sitting down! I feel so sexy man. Yea! My
hand knows what it wants, doesn't it, Lucile? Give it to daddy!" His
face perspired, making the dog jisim and sweat run across his big
puffy lips, giving him even more pleasure. "Yes, Lucile! You're
better than a woman. You let me sit down you're my…hand! Yea! Give
it to me! Give it to me, Lucile! Then Bunboy would cum in a gush,
all over his lazy lap. Occasionally a heart attack would occur and
the emergency wagon would pull up to the door, take out a wall and
enlist an elephant to haul his ass to the hospital in a semi.
Ocasionally the elephant was know to step on and break the
Pleasurematic 5000. But on the good nights, Bunboy would just finish
up, lick off the expulsion and light a doobie.
As always, I hope this answers your question.
he has a wasting disease, he cant put on weight.

Yup. It's the latest fad diet once again around here. It was also
a fad diet around here in the 70s. So its cycle is ~25 years.

I'm one of the skinny types and my chairs have broken. When they're
held together with a brad or a spot weld, it doesn't require
heaviness to break them. I always dump casters that come with
regular furniture and replace them with the heavy duties just
like you did.
Building a chair to take the force of sitting down isn't difficult.
Making a back that can take the leverage force of fidgeting (for
want of a better word) is the problem. To prevent pressure
sores, I'd opt for down-filled cushions or pillows.
My most comfortable position is in a reclining position rather
like a lounge chair (has support for legs built in). There
used to be couches that were built like that (I can't remember
what the style is called).
Nope. Sensible. I didn't get the impression
that the question was about losing weight.

You are an amazingly interesting individual. Please continue to post here

of our posts are compared. (although I do wish you would drop the BBS-age

Bateau is an amazingly interesting individual in at least one sense,
because he is the only poster I have *ever* killfiled. Not because of
his opinions, but because the time to download one of his posts and move
on to the next is noticeable, and because it would be necessary to make
the effort of scrolling down in order to read his comments, which are
not generally worth reading.

I find it more amazing there are still some people who haven't
killfiled him and can be bothered to scroll down to read his tripe.

Thats what happened to me. Before 25 I totally lived out of vending
machines. I had a boss that ORDERED me (literally, I was in the military)
to report to the hospital and be checked for a tape worm. He wanted
someone to verify that I could actually eat sweet rolls and drink milk
all day without gaining. After I hit the metab change I was continually
on "the program" (again, this wasnt something you cheated on. It was the
military version) until the day I retired. Anyone who says "they eat too
much" you can pretty much write off as being under 30 and un-informed.
Im not saying its impossible but being as simple as "they eat too much"
aint it.

I did. And a few others. All he wanted were chair suggestions. Not sure
about the handicap but apparently it didnt have anything to do with the
type of chair he needed. He just needed one which would support 250-300 lbs
without becoming impossible to sit on within a year.

There will always be those. Newcomers. And those who avoid automatic
filters due to reasons such as their work.

Ah, OK.

That was clear. I was appalled at the other spew.
Football players are in that weight range and I don't hear
anybody trying to tell them to lose weight.

Anything with sponge filling is out even if you're not heavy.
Unless you can refill the cushion...

It would be a brave man who would casually tell a linebacker to lay
off the donuts!
Hmm yes. I see your point. Makes sense.
> That Calorie calculator just doesn't seem right.
That is a very basic one, you are supposed to modify it based on body fat,
since fat tissue requires no calories to maintain.
So at the same height, a 180 pounder with 8% body fat requires much more
calories than another 180 pounder with 20% body fat.

What do you do? Unless you are still in the military doing active combat
yours seems high.
I think he is the only person I have killfiled in the gaming groups.

Too true. The problem mainly is that Americans put sugar is
EVERYTHING. The other problem is that carbs break down in to sugar. So
we have all this sugar, but nothing real in our bodies....Hmmmmm..."Good
Omens" anyone?
The induction faze is a fad (because people take that as Atkins).
Atkins is actual a very good idea and many nutritionists have been
pushing it in some form or another for a very long time.
Really the only arguments come about when you talk about fruit (how many
carbs and sugars they "really" have).
That's because they aren't nutritionists.
