I typically work 1900-700... My normal day is waking up for class at 1500 and eating some sort of fruit first, come home make foood for work and have cereal or oatmeal at 1730, then a quick snack yogurt or cottage cheese at 2000 then a sandwich at 2200, then dinner at 100 and some sort of fruit or veggie at 400 or 500. I am always under my daily goals with that schedule. As for working out your schedule sounds harder than mine. You just have to make time for yourself. If your goal is to work out or do some sort of cardio for 30-60 min a day than break it up into small amounts. If you have ten min to go for a walk around the block go for it, if you have time to do some push ups rock them out in the office. Don't get down on yourself its a marathon not a sprint. Just try do do something a little bit better than the day before and you will get there. Best of luck to you I wish you the best.0

I work 12 hr. shifts 7p-7a (4 on, 10 off), and this is how I do it:
Breakfast: main meal at work (0300) (frozen dinner, salad, etc)
Lunch: light meal I eat when I get home from work (0800) (bowl of cereal, or toast & fruit)
Sleep: 0900-1600
Dinner: dinner with my family (1745)
Snacks: I'll have a snack around 2300 (banana and yogurt)
That way, it's easier to transition back to normal meal hours. After my last night shift, I
sleep 0900-1400, eat a light snack (instead of my 2300 snack) and then I'm back on track.
Even though it can be hard to drink lots of water (I can't really go to the bathroom three times during a delivery or C-Section), I find I have more self-control around the candy drawer if I have plenty of fluids.0
