Starting to get back on track! Besides the first week of February, I was down around 1 lb/week! I’m trying my level best to keep this trend going. My food spending this month doesn’t reflect that, but a lot of that spending was trying a lot of different things for my wife since she is still on a liquid diet. She has also started to maintain weight thanks to going out for milkshakes every day. It is surprisingly hard to find liquid foods that aren’t a part of some low calorie diet, which is the opposite of what we are trying to do.
Money-wise, once the food spending goes back down, I’m going to be charging head first into increasing my savings so we can get a house hopefully before the end of the year. We are hoping that this crazy housing market will settle or turn in our favor.
I am brewing some side hustle ideas. One is more of a community resource/classes on technical theater and design where I can dump my knowledge and make some courses, while helping high schools, community theaters, and regional theaters make better design and safety choices. I know it won’t be a huge money maker as it is so niche, and theaters tend not to have tons of money, but I’m hoping with time it can grow.
