So eating a Big Mac and NOT even hitting the gym would be better?

Of course not.

My effort here is to move a person from a dead spot. That is why the gym part is at the end of the list. Also, after years of coke and unhealthy habits, you shouldn't go hard on your self. Start slow, and accelerate afterward.

either hit the gym or take care with the diet when you are not

That depends on the results you are trying to achieve. Taking care of a diet and not hitting the gym is going to maintain the current state of your body. That is a good approach after you get your body into the desired shape. After that, you can loosen up with the diet if you continue with the workouts.
