Good luck surviving on tomatoes.
it would be a lot of tomato soup
I spent a summer canning tomatoes to realize I don't really use that many cans of tomatoes. I'll use fresh tomatoes, but we literally had to change our diet because we had canned enough tomatoes that we had to re-arrange the kitchen. We had tomatoes in cans for literally years after that summer.
#1 tip for starting gardeners: take a week or two and actually write down what the hell you actually eat that is a vegetable, and grow that. I'm not saying don't branch out and try new things, but focus on serving yourself and growing things you actually eat. If you don't eat like.. 20+ tomatoes a week, you probably don't need more than 1 or 2 tomato plants, if even that.
You'll be way more successful/ happy/ satisfied/ likely to continue or advance as a gardener if it doesn't feel like a chore and its serving you.
