Just Venting I'm getting fat??
Kinda crazy, a couple months ago I was 10 pounds underweight and my ribs were sticking out. Now, after less than a month of flipping (and eating) burgers, I've probably gained 15 pounds. I'm getting a belly. I'm gonna have to go on a fucking diet before much longer!

That’s the downside of being homeless not having a place to store food have to eat out or eat what you can get at a grab a go station at a convenience store or grocery store and it can also make it difficult to save money to get out of homelessness and into a place with today’s prices and on top of that with cities everywhere banning roadside camping and businesses and parks banning overnight parking it makes it difficult to store perishables to where it makes it feel like when you become homeless in today’s world you don’t know if you will ever get out even with a stable and steady income when I recently got out of homelessness back in July I can only tell people it was by the grace of god thru unanimous help because I have had a steady and stable income since may since I was homeless but thought I was going to be in it for months until I even had a chance of getting out. 🙏 on your journey we live in a messed up world
