Staying in shape with injury

So I've torn my meniscus and ACL, what are some exercises y'all have that would help me maintain my fitness? I'm unable to run, riding my bike is painful, and I can't walk without a limp for the time being. It's being decided when I will have surgery, but I don't want to balloon up for the time being.
Swimming was recommended and I've been doing that, but I want to do more than just one exercise.

I'm just hoping to change it up. I enjoy swimming, but I also want to try other exercises

Working the uninjured limb minimizes atrophy in the injured limb, for reasons I don't understand but that are well documented.
