Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bront" data-source="post: 2399036" data-attributes="member: 19696">Over a year ago, I started the South Beach Diet, and it was great.  I lost 65 pounds over 6+ months, felt great, looked much better, and got down to around 260 or so (I'm 6'4", and my goal was 250 or so, so this wasn't too bad).However, I lost my job, and my GF did too, so I went unemployed for a long time, and fell of the diet (Being it was a bit more expensive, and her kids refused to even think about trying it.)  Since then I've gained a lot of the weight back (I'm honestly not sure if I've gained all of it), and have reciently felt a bit odd about how my weight has been settling around my stomach (Occasional stomach area pain, feeling like I'm about to burst, breathing is occasionaly harder, and my girth has gotten noticable by me again).Now, I'm pondering getting back on the diet, but am finding it hard to get motivated (Dispite the obvious problems).  I work 3rd shift, so my eating habits haven't been very regular in general, and it's sometimes hard to find something that fits in well with the diet that's available at that time.  I'm also a very picky eater, so the diet limits my already limited choices on what I can and will eat.It doesn't help that I feel I'm fighting a bit of depression (Something I know I'll always have to deal with due to a chemical imbalance, but sometimes it's better than others, and I've been good for years) and having trouble getting motivated.  Excersize is hard, particularly when 4 days a week, I basicly work, sleep, and have maybe 2-3 hours to do something other than that (10 hour shifts, with a manditory 1 hour lunch, and a 1+ hour comute each way).  My GF's been dieting a bit lately, and but she doesn't like going full South Beach, so she's sort of stepping into step 2 without step 1, and since she's less picky than I am, she's got more choices for things she can eat.  Money is also a bit of a problem, though hopefully it should be less so by the end of the year.So, basicly I'm overwhelmed and looking for help/advice.  Thanks in advance <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
