Wouldn't recommend it for weights.
Go and do cardio. You will stay in shape for that short of time.
Maybe try lower body machines.
Avoid upper body though.

wait until the stitches are removed. Do exercises that do not require your arms. Such as walking or jogging. Give your body time to heal.

NO, NO.NO!!!!! Do not do any sort of exercising until at least a week after they come out.
