The Good Life

My problem is like this:
I got so busy with school and work I completely got off track with lifting and my diet. I'm basically starting off as a beginner...
Luckily I have some good genetics and my body looks pretty good without lifting.
Right now I'm about 6'4" with my shoes off and almost 250 pounds. My body fat is too high because i have a small to medium sized gut and small to medium sized love handles. There is no fat anywhere else though except for my cheeks are a little too full..
What I'm trying to do is get on a diet which will help me build strength while shedding fat. How much I weigh doesn't concern me as long as I'm solid.
What kind of diet should I be on and what training regime?
Currently I do this:
Monday- Chest/Cardio/Calves
Bench Press 4 sets
Incline Press 4 sets
Dumbell Pullovers 3 sets
30 minutes fast walk, (can't jog for 30 minutes without giving up yet)
Calf Raises, reverse calf raises
Tuesday- Back/Abs
Deadlifts 4 sets
chinups 4 sets
dumbell rows 4 sets
crunches 3 sets
reverse crunches 3 sets
Wednesday- Cardio/calves
30 minutes fast walk
Calf Raises, reverse calf raises
Thursday- Shoulders/Traps/Abs
Military Press 4 sets
Heavy upright rows 4 sets
Dumbell shrugs 4 sets
crunches, reverse crunches
Friday- Legs
Squats 4 sets
Stiff legged deadlifts 4 sets
calf raises reverse calf raises
Lunges 3 sets
Saturday- Arms/Abs
Barbell curls
close grip bench
Dumbell alternating curls
Skullcrushers
wrist curls
reverse wrist curls
crunches reverse crunches
I'm 22 years old and want to focus on good health primarily, strong healthy cardiovascular system and lungs.
Low body fat and good strength are my goals.
What input can you offer me?
Thanks.
