If you want professional help, look for a fee-only financial planner who is a certified divorce specialist. Very knowledgeable.

No I hardly eat out at all but I'm a wannabe chef and buy good ingredients and cook amazing meals. I could cut back, but what's the fun in that?
I'd date you.

I think I'm cutting back a lot already. I cut my own hair! It's just a buzz cut. But I'm not sure what else I can trim. Alimony was a one-time payment, thank god.

You seem to have a lot of expenses. What can you cut back? Is alimony a monthly expense? You did not list it.

I had to pay a settlement and alimony to my spouse, so I lost a chunk of my retirement and savings. I'm 33 yo and have no children. What would you do with these finances after divorce? How much should I save every month? Should I sell the rental property?
