I’m a funny one as I always sit on the floor leaning against the chair or lying down sometimes with a cushion for my head watching Tv and with my iPad close by
I bought a lovely settee and chair last year, a recliner, and I was so happy with it, but still find myself on the floor

I’m not tall enough to be a banana Annie
I usually curl up in a corner of the sofa surrounded by a pile of cushions.

Day6 you could have been describing exactly how I sit on the sofa! grin

Well, don't let it get under your skin, Annie. grin

Oh charming! I have never heard anyone described that way before! confused

You've made me think about it now Annie. I sit on the same end of the sofa always, with cushions to my back. I sit at a slight angle to watch TV and often have my laptop on my lap. Over the years I have flattened the seat cushion so I sink into a bit too much. I slouch I think and my neck goes forward if I am typing. My shoulders have become more rounded. Bad posture really. So, no, not banana shaped but certainly not ironing board shaped either!

Have to admit, I'm apple shaped, whether sitting or standing.
Sometimes the apple is bigger, sometimes smaller, but always an apple smile

Yepgrin
Banana shape - on pad
Did she recommend any other fruit positions?

Physiotherapist asked to see how I sit for most of the day. In my defence I have retired. I lie on sofa, head and shoulders against cushions against sofa arm, feet on other arm. Not my fault my bum is right on the spot where the two seat cushions meet.

She looked closely then said - oh you are the same shape as a banana .

Any other banana shaped members here ?
