Well I had trouble with porn and online games too, until I started studying Chinese (with a Learn Chinese sub). With my study I have levels of progress and a need to do 4 hours every day to get through the vocab in my set time schedule, so now I find I have no time for games, and only use porn when my wife is too tired to cuddle. Its great.
Of course, you're not studying Chinese, but my point is, you need deadlines. Small little goals and objectives, not just big long-term goals but little ones for each day. Regardless of what sub you do, set requirements for yourself. Maybe you can reward yourself, after every 2 hours of good solid work you can get yourself a coffee; and after a day of 6+ good solid hours work you can play an online game.
Its hard to start, but once you're into it, its not so difficult to maintain. Just enjoy what you do and keep your little short-term goals.
