Here's a psychological trick to play on yourself. It's called 'delayed response'. The next time you are feeling that pull towards the computer or TV, 'delay the response', and then read 30-40 pages of a book. Reward yourself with some computer time, or TV. Repeat.

Get active, honestly I deal with the same situation. And the effects to my once slightly flatter stomach have been a bit dissatisfying. I graduated from High School in June this year, when I was in High School, I was very active....now i'm in college, when I come home, I jump on the computer.
Basically, you just need to nip yourself in the butt. (Not literally). Do you have a dog? Take him/her for a walk. Or, what I like to do is, whenever I see that the dishwasher hasnt been emptied, I empty it; and then I enter this active mode and I start moving around doing more stuff. Just try helping around the house or something, you don't neccesarily have to "Go Out" as many will tell you. There's many ways you can be active without even leaving your home, i'm a homebody so I tend to stay home.
It's all a matter of mind, if you don't like, tell yourself "Look at me, I don't like this, what needs done around the house that I can do?". You don't have to neccesarily to think exactly in that manner, it's how I think though.

The one word you need is MOTIVATION, get off your backside, think of what acheivements you would like to do, then do something everyday towards your goal, once you're out of bed......that is the first hurdle,keep yourself busy, switch the tv off not much on anyway, keep your pc on just to write some more good question, life can be very interesting you know, try it.

Seriously, go find a good martial art.
Then practice like crazy.
Or go outside if you live somewhere warm.
