I used to do situps and pushups etc when my pc was loading zones. But of course, at that time I was running 512 MBs and teams would finish maps before I loaded. hehe
Words to the wise aren't necessary- it's the stupid ones that need them.

I tend to jump up and do things around the house while online- and I keep hand weights next to the computer so I can do a few exercises while waiting for teams to jump into missions, etc. I can't sit still for very long or I get bored.
When it starts getting warm outside I'll be more tempted to be out there than I am at the moment though. Maybe I won't mind mowing even, lol.
Actually, since i resubscribed a month ago, i've lost 6lbs. But, i don't allow myself to play the game until i've done my daily workout. 
Good job, Tealeaf! To the OP, if you're getting fat because all you do is game...how is that anyone else's problem but yours? Oh, and I am also heavy, myself. So don't think this is some super skinny person calling you out =P

So you think you're a hero, huh.
@Boltcutter in game.
I've lost 30 lbs. over the last year and a half. So no, I am not getting fat.

But they did! They made me violent, too!

Only in French. In English it would be plateaus.

I pulled my hard copy of websters off the shelf, and it says 'plateaus or plateaux'.

Last September, just before I turned 58, I weighed 250 and had a 44" waist. My workday and favorite pursuits both involved constant computer time. I was prone to bad back muscle spasms and some other issues related to my weight and sedentary lifestyle.
I now weight just under 190 and found my waist has snuck down to 38 1/2". My back hasn't so much as twinged in months, and other issues are also in much better shape.
However, it took a diagnosis of type II diabetes last September to scare me off my behind and onto a healthier diet and exercise regimen. Fortunately, no lasting system damage was done (incipient retinopathy has cleared up completely, heart, liver, kidneys, extremities all check out fine, and my A1C has been under 6 since at least January).
So don't wait for the bad news...if you think you are in dodgy shape, you probably are. It doesn't take much to fix it. And it is infinitely preferable to tackle it before a doctor says, in essence, get in better shape or risk dying by inches.
I had to get religion about diet and exercise pretty thoroughly to get my condition under control this quickly. Head it off before your pancreas decides it is tired of you, or your system starts deciding to be "meh" over insulin, and you can be more moderate.
And I still game lots :-)
My scrapper doesn't need an AoE. She IS an AoE.
Push-ups and walks are your friends. Not to mention the Wii has some great cardio stuff now and you can still play a game =).
And there is this thing called work.......
and you can even grow a garden, work and good safe food =)
