What activities can you do when you have a broken arm?

I just recently broke my left arm. What exercises can I do to lose weight? 

Also, I would wear my fitbit on my left arm. How can I make it more comfortable to wear it on my right arm until my left one heals?

I broke my hand 2 years ago and it required 3 pins.  There were two things I could do.

 

1.  Walk.  I had to take it pretty easy as too much jostle would make me very aware of the pins.

 

2. Exercise bike.  I found one at a garage sale for $20.  It allowed me to move my legs and keep my arm in a steady state.
