One thing is to make sure you talk with you doctor to make sure you have no restrictions...and if you do what they are. Second thing is to start slow and small. Baby steps so to speak. I would go see the doc and in the mean time start a very low impact areobic routine like walking swimming etc.

If you can itch your nose after arm day...do another set!

And don't forget, your diet plays an important role. You need to get enough of the right kind of foods. Check out the thread titled Grocery list for a bodybuilder on the nutrition forum.
