Advice & help for overweight camper please

So sadly I'm obese & being the heaviest I've ever been isn't comfortable at the best of times, (I've just started to address this but will be slow going)

My back had been a bit dodgy the last few months & we're going camping in a couple of weeks-small festival style with a glamping night beforehand.

Does anyone have any advice or tips to make things easier. I'm mainly concerned about chairs & not sure what to take. We have a couple of old folding beach chairs which I hope will hold me & I was looking at the ground chairs with back support. Not sure whether one of these or a more hardcore would be best.

I'm nearly 19 stone. Have sims & also camp beds but worried I'd be too heavy for the camp bed at the minute as it's under 16 I think.

Thanks for any advice

Memory foam is your friend here - get a mattress topper to put on your chosen sleeping option and it will instantly improve it.

Regardless of weight, 4-legged chairs are more comfortable than deck-chair styles.

Thanks so much for the replies-sounds good, will add yoga mats & look for a back chair & better 4 legged one too.
