      Have you pondered trying out Semaglutide medication for weight loss?

      Cost is usually the one thing that stops folks, but right now you can get 6 weeks of medication and online medical appointments to get started for only $50.87!

      Semaglutide is the same medication as Ozempic or Wegovy, though it is made as a compounded medication which makes it alot more affordable than the $1,000 price of the name brand.  These are made in FDA approved pharmacies and very safe to use.

      In case you are curious, the largest affect of the medication is that you will feel full longer and have decreased food cravings.  Most say that it cuts out “food noise” completely.  While I didn’t understand that, once I tried the medicine I completely get it.  I rarely thought about food at all!

      Get started with a deal on Groupon right now:

      WeightCare 6 Week Program with Medication – $67.83 (reg. $399)
      -$16.96 off with code PROMO
      makes it $50.87

      This deal is just for the first 6 weeks, after that the cost is $399 per month covering all doctors telemedicine visits and the medication.  You can cancel at any time though.

      Note: While I have used this medication, I did not start with this company.  I would have if the deal was around though!

                  It’s the end of a month again, so we’re here to take a look at the state of our finances. I like to go through a list of end of the month budget questions at the end of every month to see if there is anything I need to—or want to—change as we move into a new month.

                  If you don’t have a budget, then you probably will want to start there. See my post on how to start a budget!

                  If you do have a budget, then here are some things to think about as April comes to a close. Consider this post your sign to do a April budget recap and help you get some perspective so you can stay on track for the rest of the year.

                  End of the Month Budget Questions | April Budget Recap

                  Did you actually track your spending?

                  If you did, great job! If not, what kept you from doing it? Think about how you can change that in May.

                  How much did you spend last month?

                  Look at any categories where you spent more than you expected, and see if that was just a one-off or if you need to overhaul something more substantial in your budget.

                  Will you be planning to spend more or less on a certain category in the coming month?

                  Look through school expenses, upcoming summer expenses, and check in on your sinking funds.

                  Are there any holidays or events coming up that will cause you to spend more?
