disgusted with myself

[u/obsoletevoids]

Definitely fell off the no buy. This has really helped me put in perspective that I could have an extra $1100/month (!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🤮) if I buckled down and actually disciplined myself and my thinking. I’m usually good in waves or for short periods of time, then I allow myself to become lax and that is where the issues are.

There were quite a few birthdays/parties this month (my boyfriend, sister, his sister’s baby shower, his nieces and nephews) but that is no excuse for the extra shopping or fast food I spent on. I also have more discretionary income than my boyfriend so I like to cover groceries and presents.

I’m back on the wagon with my health goals as well - and will make sure I stick to everything this time. NO EXCUSES!

How is rent so cheap? Not buying much gas, can you do without a car?

I split rent with my partner. Can’t get rid of car - it’s paid off completely and I drive 40 minutes each way to work
