Can't exercise and I need it!

I’m sorry for dropping like this into subject…
I’m medium old and obese…

Problem is that I can’t do anything, just done streching and I feel tired and got palpitations…

What to do? I have artificial hip and can’t do majority of exercises.
Also, I doubt my heart could bare it…

Maybe some advice how to start from scratch…
Thanks

Stretching is a great start and maybe light walking not far just a little to start with

Water aerobics or swimming could be good exercises for you.

Or maybe a gentle walk.

Could you get physio therapy exercises?

Don’t overdo it

Light walking is a great place to start

Yes, that was planned today, but I felt asleep in afternoon, and woke up late.
I don’t go out when it’s dark…

@anon25523312 Make sure to build yourself up over time. Gain strength as you go. Good luck!
