Belated New Years Resolution

It's time to get back into shape.
My job takes a lot out of me both mentally and physically. I sit for long periods of time at a terminal. I don't have the most healthy diet due to conferences and travel, not to mention that I love to a fault vending machine chili fries with a Mountain Dew. This lifestyle has given me a paunch that I hate with all my being. So, time has come to make a change other than just spending a couple minutes every other day walking the track at the local gym while listening to crappy lectures on my phone.
I am going to take photos as I go in hopes that seeing the progress will motivate me into working harder.
Beginning measurements:
Height: 6″ 1
Weight: 209 lbs.

Initial Girth and Maximum Endurance Measurements (In Inches)
Neck: 17 3/4
Chest – Across Sternum: 47 1/2
Waist – Narrowest circumference: 35
Hip – Around The Buttocks: 41
Upper Arm – Mid point: 15 1/2
Thigh – Mid Point: 23 2/3

Curl (one arm) - 75 lbs
Bench press - 235 lbs
Squat - 365 lbs.
Incline Squat - 490 lbs.
One mile run - Not doing this part. My knees aren't going to let me.

Starting Photos: 
Just forewarning:
There will be no picking out the best of hundreds looking for just the right one. (especially since they are open to the internet for everyone to see.) I AM tensing my stomach because in the future pictures I will be doing the same each time mostly because I don't want this to be one of those amazing before and after shoots where the model/actor is pushing out his stomach as to look as if a miracle of weight loss has happened at the end of each week.
