What you can do is use those 4l milk jugs. You fill them with sand, half, quarter or completely full, then you weigh them and use them as your weights. You wont be able to do bench press unless you use a broom handle or something, this probably sounds very ghetto but it will work. Continue with lots of push ups and pull ups. They are very affective exercises.
