What Causes Chest Pain On Right Side?

30 year old male poor diet and very overweight. I was active and eating healthy and then stopped and began a poor diet. Now I am having chest pain/tightness for a week or more it is on the right side. What could this be? I know I need to change my diet, and stop drinking. I am not a smoker.
