I am a bit of overweight guy and I don't know anything about lifting and fitness. I can't go for strength due to very weak joints. (no loaded squats) I would like to go for body building or hypertrophy training. Some pointers, tutorials and links to resources are welcome.

As equipment goes I only have resistance bands, a bicycle and an outdoor gym.

Also how important is a diet in keeping myself fit?

A diet is about 75-80% of being fit. I would recommend first reducing weight via a diet with general activities like walking, and then start intensive exercising.
