How can I still exercise while being restricted by a leg injury?

I have a stress fracture in my shin and just recently was taken off of crutches after 7 weeks and am now in a boot. I still am not able to exercise and I went from funning 40 miles a week to running none. I would really like to exercise to lose some weight since I have gained 8 pounds, but i do not know how I can really exercise well without running. Since it is not a very common injury, a lot of people do not know how to cope with it . . . me especially, so if you have any recommendations whatsoever, I would really appreciate them.
