If you want to loose weight when you can't work out then you need to control your eating. Find something else to keep you entertained - TV, crossword puzzles, computer games, books, visitors etc. If you have someone bringing you food in bed, ask them to help you but either not bringing you so much, or bringing you different foods like vegetables to snack on.

There are some upper body exercises you can do using free weights and resistance type exercises. There are also isometric exercises which will help you keep muscle tone something bed ridden patients’ loose while laid up.
If you put isometric exercise into a search engine it will return a number of sites you can look at to both learn more about this exercise and see different ones you can do. You will also be going to rehab for a bit after the cast comes off. Ask your doctor for a referral now to the rehab center and contact them for exercises you can do in bed.
Most all of these exercises will not do much to help you lose weight though they will keep your muscles toned. They will also give you something else to do rather than feeding your face which is adding to your weight gain. If you can control your diet and exercise you may lose a few pounds from the extra workout as you will burn some extra calories.
Check with your doctor; he or she is your best source of information on what you can and cannot do to prevent further injury to your leg.
Wishing you a speedy healing.
