Why don't you start with some cardio? It will give you more energy and help you start to loose that belly. How about some walking a few times per week and slowly increase your intensity and duration. You also heve to have a good diet too.

Start a diet and get a walking buddy, walk every night (doesn't have to be every) and you will see those pounds just melt. Eventually its all about what you eat.
There are MANY home exercises you can do and you don't need weights and weights and a bad back is just asking for trouble.
I think there should be home exercises plan right here on the site.
