Fitness: Begin slowly, 20 minutes of walking, mild aerobic activity three times a week. Increase your time to 30 minutes in two weeks, then 30 minutes and when you feel able to 4 aerobic workouts a week for 40 minutes. In the first month start a weight resistance routine as well, upper body exercises for at least 30 minutes twice a week. Focus your diet on plant based protein and be patient with yourself.
