Hi reddit!

I was hoping you could answer a few of my questions!

(I should mention that yes, I've read the FAQ and done some searching, and I still have questions. I hope that's okay.)

Here's the thing: I'm 19, turning 20 soon, and I'd like to shape up a bit. I'm starting to get chubby and my stamina is as bad as it can be. I'm not overweight yet, but I figure that since I do nothing but sit on my ass in my spare time and play games that's just a matter of time.

I'm too lazy and it's too inconvenient, and I'm too much of a hermit, to go to the gym, but I want to move more, so for the last few weeks I have considered buying a treadmill. That way I can walk/jog/run while watching a movie or playing a game. 
Is buying a treadmill something you would recommend for me? Would it be a good way to get some exercise and stay healthy? I'm not in it to be buff, I want to work on my stamina and stay slim.

To clarify the treadmill will, for now at least, be my only workout. No gym or other exercises. 

Sorry for writing a novel.
