I am so Busted

So it’s been no secret that I have been looking for a part time job recently to replace the one that I had because my car is in dire need of repair. I am just thankful that we do not have inspection stickers to deal with every year because I tell you what I would never pass it. The reverse lights do not work, the speedometer does not work when it gets hot and I need a completely new set of tires because they are essentially bald and I’m just wondering now how long before they actually bust before I can afford to replace them. That’s not including what needs to be done to the engine :uhh:

Now onto my clothes issues. Back in 2007 I had had enough of being overweight and started going over to our weight management department and signed up for one of their studies. Seemed easy enough as we were doing the Slimfast shakes, a personal caloric diet and exercise. We got to see the dietitian at the very least once a month to make sure we were maintaining calories verses the weight we lost. I essentially had to give away every single piece of clothing I owned to the Kidney Foundation because none of it fit. I never liked shopping so I’d only buy a few pieces here and there because I would loose more weight and have to toss those as well. It even got so bad my coworker was buying me clothes and I must say she did a bang up job of it too because it was tasteful and she got the right sizes that I was currently in. Sadly those are too big now too. I did manage to buy some jeans at Sears for this past winter that fit and I still need to loose a few more pounds but I think I’ve leveled out in the size department. If I end up going smaller it will be by only 1 size so I should be able to hold on to these until I wear them out.

Right now Sears is offering 75-80% off all fall and winter apparel from now until April 18th so get yourselves over there for the sale prices if you have got the money. If not, you can check out Busted Moms which is backed by Sears. Now you do not technically have to be a mom to enter this. Sears is giving away a package worth $2500.00 to include $1500 of Sears apparel which I sure as heck could use considering my lack of clothes now, $250 spa treatment which I also could use for massages on my back with my spine problem, $250 for hair and make up which would help in that I will not be chopping up my own hair like I have been doing and most recently just got my coworker to cut it at least straight this time compared to what I was doing, and lastly $500 cash which I would put towards tires for my vehicle since Sears has an automotive section. You just need to be a member of Facebook and then become a fan of Busted Moms or you could follow Busted Moms using Twitter at @bustedmoms.

    That sounds pretty neat about the Sears thing!!

    I added you to my blogroll so that I don’t lose track of you as I prepare to leave Entrecard.

    I can relate to the losing weight and nothing fitting thing. Only I gained back about 1/2 of what I had lost due to health issues :( Hopefully I can get back on the right track and start losing gain soon!
