Tenses and pronouns

I kept thinking about the girl, the chair she has been sitting on and the food she has been eating.Hesitating a moment, I rose from my seat, those images flashing through my mind.

Are both correct in terms of tenses and have I used the right pronoun to match the main tense in the sentence?
