Restaurant Expenses
For the record, I'm debt free, and try to keep my spending to a minimum. But I do tend to eat out at least once a day, the reason being that I have so little time to cook!
I try to make one big meal on Sunday that will carry over for a couple of days, but after working all day and going to the gym after work, I was eating dinner at, like, 11 p.m. when I tried to cook every day. This was a recipe (forgive the pun) for putting on weight. So now I go out to eat for lunch, eat my biggest meal at noon, and eat a little leftover soup or whatever I managed to whip up on Sunday in the evenings.
When you are working full-time, it's very difficult to cut back on eating out, in my opinion. I would need an equivalent of a wife at home in order to do so.
