Reccommend an office chair that FORCES my back into the correct posture

I've tried at least two office chairs here at home but after a while i get lazy when i'm at the computer and start to slouch....its absolutly killing my back because i dont realise at the time that i'm slouching......

I remember in the eighties there were some weird office chairs that were supposed to be good for your posture - you used to put your knees on this pad at the front and then there was no backrest so it forced you into an upright position.

Anyway - can anyone recommend any kind of chair or back suuport thats holds your lower lumbar in position??

Thanks :)

    I've had mine for a few days now, and I'm very impressed with it so far. Not sure how, but it does literally 'force' you to sit correctly, however, it's done effortlessly. Some people have referenced issues if you have knee or joint problems, but I have found it comfortable. No slouching, and surprisingly, I haven't missed the chair not having a back.

    I started the thread link referenced, and have done a lot of research about suppliers and the cheapest prices including delivery. Any questions, and I'll try to help.:)
