Post Double Mastectomy and Weight Loss

Last year I found out that I am BRCA1+ (breast & ovarian cancer gene) at 23 years old. I'm one month out of a preventative double mastectomy and unable to be very active right now. I have a goal of losing 80lbs and need to maintain a healthy lifestyle. When I was in high school I lost 80 pounds and throughout the years, have gained it all back. Wondering if anyone who has had a double mastectomy had results w/ working out and eating healthy even tho activity with pecs and upper body is extremely limited now. Or any other advice or tips from anyone! Thank you!!
