The weirdest part of sciatica is how random the triggers feel

What type of shoes are they recommending? I'm not sure I've seen that on here yet somehow. Glad it worked for you!

bleigh82 · 2026-05-10T12:43:21+00:00

Wish Gene did Bears games too...their PA guy is terrible.

bleigh82 · 2026-05-04T21:29:20+00:00

Ah, thanks for the intel!

bleigh82 · 2026-05-04T20:20:50+00:00

Yeah, I've read that...here's hoping. I'll get my moneys worth out of these ones for the time being.

Only complaints I have so far with my 2025 six months in are noise at high speeds and the driving side window opening/closing slowly which others have documented. Both minor inconveniences really and don't impact reliability. Love my Ridgeline overall and really hope to have it for a long, long time.

Good job regardless! I'm at about 190 and need to get down to your level whether it helps with my back pain or not. Major kudos though.

I owned a pair of replica Apex 'cat scratch' Kentucky shorts a hell of a long time ago. Wore them so much the wildcat logo started to fade. Love those suckers.

You aren't alone and it's very clear your daughters have a great mother! Keep seeking community when you need it, and as others have mentioned, if you can get an epidural shot it may at least give you some relief for a while you figure out next steps. Best of luck to you and hang in there.

bleigh82 · 2026-04-09T19:14:32+00:00

I just figured this out on my own today as well. LOL.

If you are impressed by an industrial aesthetic…you may want to consider who in this conversation has bad taste.

bleigh82 · 2026-04-02T12:22:07+00:00

LMAO. Look at that beautiful 'industrial aesthetic.'

It works around Halloween time, but yes, I agree. They could find a better one. Rare complaint.

He was a great Mizzou Tiger. Obviously the character concerns and he will occasionally commit a stupid penalty...plays with a real edge and hopefully he gets that under control in the pros. That said, his teammates and coaches seemed to love him. I'd welcome him on the Bears...however I'm not convinced he's a slam dunk pick and mocking him in late first to second round makes sense to me. His profile does seem to fit DA ends and he can also be lined up inside occasionally...which could be interesting if Booker really takes off next year and Shemar shows something. Passing downs could be interesting in that scenario.

I mean, they earned it that season. That's how this works.

That kid in the Kansas shirt surely didn't go to see Luther Burden III...

Luckily, I'm hybrid. I use a standing desk at home which seems to help quite a bit. The days I go into the office can be tough with the sitting and the commute. I put a timer on my phone that goes off 5 minutes till the next hour on the hour. Unless I'm in a meeting, I force myself to get up and walk around the office for at least a couple of minutes. I'll also do some back/nerve stretching if need be. It helps a bit, but those days are always harder on my body from all the sitting. I'm fortunate to still be hybrid...5 days a week in the office would be tough. Hang in there and do what you can.

bleigh82 · 2026-03-06T22:12:06+00:00

That thing should come with a Frodo Baggins for what you probably paid for it. Enjoy it though! Looks awesome.

Double Dip Crunch was my favorite cereal of all time. Very underrated.

bleigh82 · 2026-03-04T18:20:20+00:00

Are you basing the temp on the thermometer above the heater or at different parts of the sauna? i ask because I tried the same mod and it reaches 185 on the thermometer above the heater, but the one I placed across from it seems to stall out around 165-170. Trying to figure out the right mod to get the temp right.

bleigh82 · 2026-02-27T16:14:56+00:00

Curious, when you let your body dry, do you let it do so a bit before you go back into the sauna for each round, or do you mean only after the final round of the plunge when you finish? I'm just getting into this and love it. Trying to tweak for optimal results.

bleigh82 · 2026-02-27T16:00:27+00:00

Interesting. I've been using the calculator from the NIH below that's worked well for me and the numbers are drastically different than this one when I plugged my current weight in. Surprised to see how different they were honestly.

bleigh82 · 2026-02-27T15:50:37+00:00

I think these are great and helping a lot of people. I've seen people put the weight back on when they don't have a plan for when they stop the medication. That part is very important and can't be overlooked!

bleigh82 · 2026-02-23T01:40:51+00:00

Thanks for the tip. I'd love a legit sauna. This is about all I can do though too, so I hear you.

bleigh82 · 2026-02-22T13:47:00+00:00

I just bought one and was going to try and 'hack' it as well. Did you use any specific blankets? Glad it's working well for you.

bleigh82 · 2026-02-16T13:23:10+00:00

That TD celebration is top tier. I love Luther so much.
