You should start feeling and seeing small gradual improvements in a week or so if you keep it up. Although you might want to rethink the pizza and fries, they can work against you.

Okay, here we go. Seeing results depends on how much you workout. I workout 5 days a week, and now (month later) I am starting to see results on my calves and chest. I created a workout for myself to gain muscle fast for I am joining the Marine Corps., so here's an upperbody for you.

Day 1: Chest Biceps
15-min. Run (Gets blood flowing through your entire body)
Bicep Curl - 5 sets of 20 15 12 10 7 (More weight is added as reps decrease)
Barbell Lift - 5 sets of 12 10 10 10 7 (Weight is the same as reps stay)
Deltoid Fly - 5 sets of 20 15 12 10 7
Incline/Decline Fly - 5 sets of 20 15 12 10 7
Pull-Ups - 3 sets to failure
Push-Ups - 3 sets to failure

Day 2: Back
Squat - 5 sets of 12 10 10 7
Lateral Pull down - 5 sets of 12 10 10 7
Forward crunch - 5 sets to failure
Lunges - 5 sets to failure (Start off with no weight, but I add some after the first set)
Row - 5 sets of 12 10 10 7
Pull-Ups - 3 sets to failure

That is just 2 days of workouts. The important thing is to focus more on technique and less on weight. You can do 5lbs. right rather than 50lbs. wrong and risk injury. I started off doing 5lbs. Bicep curls and 20lbs. Leg Press, now I can curl 30lbs, and do 100lbs. press.

Diet is another thing. Eating fatty foods and sugary things can cancel the workout you just did. You are gaining all or more calories when you eat a fatty meal. Try cutting back on soda and sugar. I cut back from soda gradually from everyday to 3 days a week, to barely even one day a week. If you drink protein, take it after every meal and 30 min. before you workout. Keep your back straight when you do back exercises as it can injure you if you don't do it right. For me, I had trouble, because I always slouched, but now I find it hard to slouch since my lats and deltoids are used to be contracted and now I stand straight. Technique is always important. Try that workout and see if it helps you. You should see results in a week or so. To help me, I take a picture of the start of the week, and the end of the week to see my results.Good luck, and ask if you have questions.
