Going vegetarian?

So I've been thinking of going vegetarian for a few weeks, not taking the full leap to vegan though ain't nobody taking my eggs from me. I'd just like some tips for what to eat when vegetarian, preferably something not too hard to cook, doesn't need to be super easy though as I do have some experience cooking. Thanks in advance :)

How do you keep motivation when working long hours?

I'm having a hard time keeping motivated to go to the gym. I love working out, but find myself with a lack of motivation after working long shifts. For example I just worked a string ranging from 10-19 hours a day. I just have the hardest time willing myself to go when I have to be up in 5 hours for the Next day of work. Just wanted to see if anyone can relate with this and how they push through it

Lost 10lbs since February 6th!

I gained some weight over the winter and my weight spiked up to 184, which is a 29.0 BMI for my height.

Been exercising at 6x a week. Doing stationary biking and just this week starting back into running. My diet is still the problem. Come from a family with down home southern cooking and I am used to huge portion sizes.

Starting backing into juicing but still have a lot of empty carbs and some take out in my diet.

Anyone have advice for cleaning up diet, and getting used to smaller meals/ portion size?

First time squatting 100kg (225lbs) form check

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vo-I7iJJn_w&feature=youtu.be

Coming from a person who for the first 2 years of lifting did bro splits and skipped legdays like there was no tomorrow I am pretty proud that I managed to move this much weight. Last year I messed up my left inner thigh so I had to avoid squatting for a good 3 months. Before attempting this I warmed up 4x5 with 60kg(135lbs) and did a 1 rep of 90kg(198lbs). Should I make alterations to the form because I felt my lower back kinda weird while going up , but I can't say if it's normal because I never max out.

Is it hard to build muscle after a year of lifting on a caloric deficit?

I started going to the gym almost a year ago and have been lifting 4-5 days a week since. I wanted to lose fat first, so I have been eating at a deficit since I started. I have lost a lot of fat, but have only made very minor muscle gains. I am hoping to start bulking to put on muscle soon. Is it going to be harder to build muscle since I've been training them for so long already?

[NSV] I spent $20 on walking & didn't finish my hot chocolate this morning.

I was tried of waiting for the mission updates on my Zombies, RUN! application, so yesterday, once again halted by the 'Mission does not unlock until this date' notification I just said screw it, take my money.

I realized that I became really discouraged when I couldn't just go for a walk and enjoy the game. My biggest issue with committing to exercising is I get bored and soon it feels like a chore, and I don't want to do chores. I love using the app because as a huge fan of the zombie hype, I can now actually play my own zombie games IRL. I was even motivated to get out and walk at 7am this morning, something I rarely do as I also really love sleeping.

Also, I got about 1/3 of the way through my hot chocolate this morning from 7-11 before I said screw it, and stopped drinking that. It cost a $1.70, but I feel good about myself having not finished the whole 16oz of delicious chocolateness, because that is also my biggest weakness.
