What kind of exercise can I do now, and after WLS.... if I can barely walk now?

I find myself almost wheelchair bound,(I have Edema and herniated disks...) I do not own one yet, but I use them wherever they are available, grocery stores, dept stores, hospitals.. etc. At home some days are good, somedays are bad, I can hardly move from room to room, and then I have to sit down again. Errands are a chore. I have dropsy...(you'd think I carried my weight in my bum ..lol) I also do dishes from a chair and have been for around 8 yrs now. I can not push a broom or vacuum, because of my back, I have big restrictions.. I once was active, now NOT I know once I have surgery and get down about 40-50lbs I'll be able to finally once again be able to do a little walking to start. So my question is.... EXERCISE PRE AND POST OP?
