Reducing your calorie intake is probably your best bet. Failing that, it's rather difficult to get the calorie-burning exercise that you're going to need while sitting at a desk.
If you're a sweaty sort of guy, and don't want to alienate all of your co-workers, exercising on the job is just a bad idea all-around. Find ways of working out around your workday, not during it.
Something that my physician once recommended to me as important that you can (and, according to him, should) do at a job where you sit on your ass all day is exercise your, er, sphincter-clenching muscles, especially if you've got a bit of weight on you. A couple of sets of a dozen clenches each after you've been in your seat for a couple of hours is supposed to do wonders in preventing the need for Preparation H and Anusol later in life.

Sorry Thinkgeek, but I think that I've just found a new place to spend my discretionary income.
If anyone's looking to talk about the works of George Martin with fans of like mind, we've got a great discussion board going at A Song of Ice and Fire. It's also where his fan club, the Brotherhood Without Banners, hangs out online. The last two years running we (the Brotherhood) have thrown parties for (and with) George at Worldcon, and are planning to throw another one in Toronto this year.
FWIW, George is a great fellow. He's witty, polite, and likes to hang out with his fans. Two years ago we spent all night drinking with him, and then he went with us to get cheesesteaks in the wilds of South Philly at 3AM. He even knighted us, right there on the sidewalk, with an actual sword!
