I suggest taking it a step at a time to get in good habits.

Yes, eat more fruits and veggies. Start with one of each per day. Make it a habit.

And get out more. Replace X minutes a day couch time with walking or jogging time. Again, get it to the point that it's a habit.

You can even add some dumbell curls, leg-lifts, etc. to some of your couch time.

Get more active and energetic first - then move on to a more significant workout routine like the gym or a home machine.

...just my thought on it...

So no gym but thats my problem i find it hard to do those sorts of things unless i have no other choice i have the fruit and veg crocked just the phisical bits thats why I personally think i need to go to a gym or something

if you have the room buy some dumbels or a big machine and watch fit tv on how to use em or gat a book from the library the gym wastes time on the comute and money do not sign up to a gym by yourself it will get boring
always bring a friend but not one that will distract you from actualy working out music gets boring too after a while
