    I've previously lost large amounts of weight without exercise, but I've always gained it back due to maintaining a sedentary lifestyle without watching what I ate... This time I'm in for the lifestyle change -and that is more important to me than weight loss itself... As long as you maintain a calorie deficit, you should be able to lose without any exercise. (but you will be much healthier if you DO exercise... can you talk to your doctors about finding a low impact exercise that you could do? possibly swimming or something?)

    I have lost weight just by changing my diet before, but now I am focusing on that as well as exercise. With your medical situation I can see how that would be diificult though. I agree with Coolhand. Ask your doc if there are things you can do. You should probably be getting some physical therapy for that anyways, so that might help.
