Losing weight with minimal exercise?

I have a fair bit of weight to lose but at the moment am unable to do exercise due to recovering from an achilles tendon operation. I am eating around 1200 calories a day, spread through the day but am wondering if this will make a difference if I am unable to exercise?

    the best diet to do if u cant exercise is cambridge diet. i was on it for 5 months and lost 5 stone.. but now maintain my weight with alot of exercise and very healthy eating. But fi you dont want to do a diet like that then cutting ur cals to 1200 should help. Cut down on carbs and drink plenty of water as most of the time the hunger u think u feel , is just because ur thirsty. x
