How much exerciuse can I expect to do right after surgery?

I'm a pre-op and I recently joined a gym near my work and home, and I am trying to go four times a week. I do about 35-45 minutes on the treadmill, about 10 on the bike and about 15 minutes of swimming laps (then I treat myself to the hot tub!). At home I am working with five pound weights on my arms. I'm feeling really good about this and feel like the exercise is not only good for my body, but has also lifted my spirits and raised my overall energy level. What type of exercise can I expect to be comfortable with after surgery and how long will it be until I can get back into this sort of routine? I'll be having a Lap RNY.
