A lot of the people in prison are in very good shape. Trust me, they don’t have a treadmill.
Probably the first thing to do is get off of Y/A! and at least walk around some.

Think about boot camp for soldiers in the armed forces. Generally they do not use weights during the basic training which lasts 6-12 weeks depending on which branch of the service they are in. After those weeks on intense training they usually have a transformed look that is amazing.
Those workouts usually involve lots of running. Running in the morning, afternoon and at night. I don’t recommend a treadmill, they are too easily misused by the novice and don’t provide the results most desire. Go run at a park, school, your neighborhood, or somewhere else safe. Start running a mile, don’t stop running and start walking either, even if you have to run at a near crawl, don’t walk. At your size it shouldn’t be a physical problem, running will be a mental/endurance issue. Best way to overcome it is to suffer and make it through. After that first run, you’ll know that you can run a mile without stopping, breaking the mental difficulty and the endurance difficulty.
Look up calisthenics (which is push ups, sit ups, etc.) online. Get a good set up calisthenics and do them 4 mornings and 4 evenings a week. You’ll be in much better shape in only a few months. If you can’t find good calisthenic workouts online, do a yahoo search for the marines or navy seals workout routines. That should give you an idea of what you need to do.
This will help you since you don’t have access to weights.
