And you don't have enough free time for another part-time job.
Depending on the area, it may not be that easy to get a second job; even part-time jobs aren't necessarily easy to come by. Also it's pretty common for part-time jobs - in my area at least - to have inconsistent schedules, so it's really hard to have more than one.

Too proud to get gov't assistance or to steal. Either of those will not happen. Ever.
As long as you're only deciding that for yourself, I have no argument with it. I do hope, however, that if you're ever responsible for children & in a similar situation you will put their well-being above your pride and make sure that they have adequate nutrition even if it means getting govt. assistance.
One other possibility, depending on the kind of place you live - around here if you go just out of town (it's a longish walk, but it is walkable), there are quite a few apple trees by the roadsides that no one cares about & no one will care if you pick the apples --> free food!
