Help!

I just started a new job and it is a desk job - one I have never had before! I have always had active jobs and now I am worried I am going to pack on the pounds!
The really embarrassing thing is that I don't go into work until 3pm... I still can't get my *kitten* out of bed to go to the gym! I was doing so great for so long and now I just can't do it! It is a different shift then I am used to - I work until 11:30 and I don't get home until midnight... I am so wired after work I can not get to sleep until 3 or 4 in the morning and then I sleep all day!
I eat 1200-1500 calories a day and I am a vegetarian becoming vegan. I eat very healthy (like extremely healthy) but I am still not at my goal weight. I have lost 11 lbs in 2 1/2 months but I am worried I will ruin it all with this lifestyle!
Please - any constructive criticism, advice, ANYTHING welcome!
Thank you!

    I would think keeping that calorie intake you would still lose weight, it might slow a little being less active. Can you walk or do some kind of activity during your lunch break? Or even try to start small and make yourself do something for 15 minutes before, or even after work and then work up. I have worked about as late at 1 am before, if I'm energetic I go for it. Hope this helps! Good luck!
