Default Losing tone & shape & would love some advice...

I have always been very healthy. I am usually a slim/athletic build & before my injury, I played lots of football, running, surfing, kickboxing, cycling, etc, but now with my injury, I find even walking short distances extremely difficult. So any exercise is almost impossible. The fact that I cant exercise properly is frustrating for two reasons, 1- I love exercise. I enjoy sports & just loved being active, & 2- without exercise, I am rapidly getting out of shape. I have already lost my abs & my 'gut' is starting to expand outwards quicker than a 'red giant' star & I have no idea how to halt the expansion... I cant lift anything heavier than a shopping bag, cant be on my feet for too long, etc & Im a little lost as to what I can do to get back into shape... Has anybody on here had pelvic/hip/groin pain problems which stopped their mobility & how did you get any exercise done?

Im determined to not let this beat me, but Im mindful of doing too much too soon (already been a victim of my own impatience), so any advice from people with similar 'disability' would be hugely appreciated...
