Terrific @SF73 ... you may need 2 cushions - one for each arm.  I know that my arm didn't like being flat on the bed for ages .... and now I use the cushion for when I am reading in bed to elevate my head that little bit!  ;) 

All the best with the weight loss - I'd love to lose up to 10kg ..... but i hate dieting!  LOL And not too fussed on exercising either!   DUH! xx
