Answer 1
Everything! You're devoting 100% of your life to God.
Answer 2
It depends entirely on where you are starting from. However, becoming an Orthodox Jew is not like becoming a nun; you are not praying 24/7 and devoting everything you do to the sanctification of God. It will require you to be kosher, observe Shabbat, and try to perform the other commandments, but you can still have pretty much any job you currently have, keep any friends that you currently have, and live in much the same area you already live in.
Answer 3:
See Answer 2. In addition to not eating unkosher food or working on Shabbat, you'll be giving up:
a) The melancholy of a purposeless, directionless life
b) The doubts as to the big questions: if God exists, what it all means, etc.
c) The terror of one's mortality
d) The wilder aspects of contemporary society: porn, unrestricted drinking, etc.

Why do formerly Orthodox Jews continue to discuss Judaism?
Abandonment of orthodoxy does not make a Jew non-Jewish. It just means that they find the Orthodox interpretation of Halacha, Jewish law, to be too confining. Many former Orthodox Jews end up joining non-Orthodox congregations, while others may abandon all Jewish observance and become secular Jews, still identifying strongly as Jews while largely ignoring Judaism as a religion.
Why do people think that every Jew should be Orthodox?
The Torah states that we must learn it and obey it fully (Deuteronomy ch.13), and that the Jews as a whole will at some point reach this state (Deuteronomy 30:1-10). The Orthodox attitude is that this should be encouraged through speaking to our fellow Jews when feasible and appropriate. No force or threats are used. Those who show no interest are not badgered.

How to convert from Orthodox Judaism to Reform Judaism?
Technically, there is no conversion required for the vast majority of Orthodox Jews who might want to be accepted into a Reform congregation. If an Orthodox Jew shows up in a Reform congregation and takes part in a service, they will be counted as fully Jewish without question. The great difficulties come when Reform Jews get interested in Orthodox Judaism, because Reform accepts as Jews people who are not considered as Jews by the Orthodox -- The Orthodox to not recognize the legitimacy of Reform conversions nor do they recognize as Jews those who claim Jewish status through patrilineal descent.(OK, there is one difficult class where Reform Jews might ask for conversion. The child of a Jewish mother and a non-Jewish father who grew up in a non-religious household would be welcome as a Jew in an Orthodox congregation but might face questions in a Reform congregation because, technically, the Reform acceptance of patrilineal descent is contingent on having a religious upbringing.)

Can a conservative Jew or an Orthodox Jew be pro-LGBT?
The Conservative movement moved to allow ordination of gay, bisexual and lesbian rabbis in 2006 and to allow Conservative rabbis to officiate at same-sex marriages in 2012. They have not yet reached a position of full marriage equality because of technical halachic (legal under Jewish law) questions about the definition of same-sex marriage, but this has few practical consequences. It is up to each Conservative rabbi whether to agree to perform such marriages, and up to each congretation whether to host such occasions.Individual Orthodox Jews may be pro-LGBT, but there has been no movement on these issues by the institutions that guide Orthodox Judaism.
