From an active career to a sedentary desk job...

In the past year, I have seen all of my weight-loss progress slowly melt away as I have gone from a physically active job (mainly walking or standing all day) to one behind a desk.
I am a 6'2" tall male who currently weighs 270 pounds. I have gotten to the point where I am so unhappy with my body that I avoid mirrors and have started buying larger, baggy clothes to cover myself up. I MUST lose 70 pounds and it seems like an impossibility to me. I would love to meet others with a large goal like this in mind.
I am ALMOST a vegetarian now as I have cut out about 95% of my meat intake. I still eat fish and dairy products, so...more accurately I am a "lacto ovo pescatarian vegetarian". (milk-eggs-fish-vegetables)
I would love to have a person (or a few people) to talk to about trials, tribulations and successes. Although I am around people all day, I feel isolated in my journey.
If you would like to chat with me...or be my friend on here...please let me know...

Howdy and welcome.
You might want to take a look at joining the "Royal Order of Middle Aged Fat Men" group.
Quite a few of us with similar backgrounds and goals in that circus.
