How much can one weigh to get started riding a bike in public?

My six-year-old and I set a goal for this surgery that I would be able to ride a bike with him by October. I am not sure this is going to happen. I am 5 weeks post op today, down 23, but I am 5' 4" and 300 pounds. Is it physically possible to ride a two-wheeler at this weight? I can't even imagine how gross it would look, but exercise will help me improve that. I know Merri got an adult tricycle which she loves, but it is a little pricier than I had hoped, and I wanted one that could be taken in the car to a bike trail. Any ideas????
