Is yoga a good way to stay healthy or should the gym be a priority?

With weight gain I know there are a lot of things that need to be taken care of, knees, back, healthy body function, etc. I don’t want to struggle and feel miserable if I gain weight and put my life at risk, so I want to keep working my body while gaining weight. Is yoga good to stay in good health or would the gym be better?
The gym environment just kind of stresses me out, I could easily do yoga at home.

Both are good. If you'd rather do yoga over the gym, that's fine. Just make sure you get your cardio in somehow. Walking can be an easy, non-gym fix for that.

Is swimming or water aerobics an option? That is great exercise for fat people.

I do yoga and aqua aerobics once a week and it makes me feel better to get my body moving. Aqua aerobics is just fun where I go so it doesn’t really feel like exercise and yoga is really good for maintaining flexiblility and stretching. I avoid cardio as much as possible, but I do lift from time to time lol

Yoga is awesome for your health and will certainly benefit no matter your size. Any kind of movement is good and you don’t have to go crazy working out 6-7 intense hours a week to get the benefits of exercise.
