It was an awesome weekend. Family Friday, a date night, wine for $0.49 at Walgreens (say whaaaat), super sweaty yoga class and a Father’s Day dinner at my dadoo’s house. My stepmom made Southern food (fried chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy, mac n’ cheese, biscuits, salad, fruit, veggies, pie), so needless to say, my Alabama man was a fan. Livi spent some time Sunday morning coloring a card for her daddy, and we made him breakfast with crispy bacon (baked with brown sugar, salt, pepper and smoked paprika), pancakes and OJ. We spent lots of time in the pool, enjoying the weather (monsoons are on the way!) and enjoying time with each other. Not too shabby.

Our Monday was greeted with “service engine soon” lights in both of our cars -how does that even happen?!- so we’re off to deal with that ๐Ÿ˜‰ Hope you had a lovely weekend!

Summer Shape Up Week 3 is here!! Who’s hitting it hard today? Please leave a comment and let me know how you liked Workout 3!

xoxo

    Looks like a great weekend! The cupcakes look delicious! Oh I hate when the service engine light comes on! So annoying and NOT a good way to start the week, I’m sure!

  2. Rachel on June 17, 2013 at 10:39 am

    Goodness she’s getting big! Glad you had a great weekend!

  3. Mer on June 17, 2013 at 10:40 am

    • Shaina Anderson on June 17, 2013 at 10:47 am

      Where did you get that skirt?!

      • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 10:54 am

        it’s from LOFT, a few months ago when everything was 40% off

      • Brittney on June 17, 2013 at 11:41 am

        Glad someone already asked this cause I was going to ask the same thing! LOVE this skirt!!!!

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 10:53 am

      thank you!!

  4. Katie on June 17, 2013 at 10:41 am

    Love your pink skirt! Where’s it from?? Those margs looks fantastic…one thing I miss about the south is good Mexican food! Your veggie juice looks delish too! Am i just hungry or is anyone else swooning over your eats from this weekend?

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 10:54 am

      thank you! it’s from LOFT
      haha the eats were pretty great this weekend ๐Ÿ™‚

  5. Erin @ Girl Gone Veggie on June 17, 2013 at 10:45 am

    Omg Livi’s hair is getting so long! What a wonderful weekend!

  6. Amanda @ Sistas of Strength on June 17, 2013 at 10:49 am

    Both cars at once! Woah…good luck with that! ๐Ÿ™‚

  7. Erin on June 17, 2013 at 10:51 am

    I like your pink skirt! Looks like a fun weekend =)

  8. Sylvia @ Frolic Through Life on June 17, 2013 at 10:53 am

    I need some .49 cent wine in my life! ๐Ÿ™‚ And one of those cupcakes!

  9. Meg @ A Dash of Meg on June 17, 2013 at 10:56 am

    So happy you guys had a great Father’s Day weekend, Gina! Love ya girl! Have a great Monday ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 10:57 am

      love you, pretty! hope you had a wonderful graduation weekend ๐Ÿ™‚ xoxo

  10. Lisa on June 17, 2013 at 10:57 am

    I am so craving a green smoothie now, that looks fabulous! And the weekend looks pretty darn good as well.
    Haha, awesome about the cheap wine. I actually find sometime cheap wine tastes better than the expensive stuff, but maybe I’m just crazy for thinking that ๐Ÿ˜‰

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 11:00 am

      i like all wine- i’m not biased ๐Ÿ˜‰ at walgreen’s all the wine was $5 off, so that bottle was originally $5.99. nice time to stock up! haha

  11. Emily on June 17, 2013 at 10:59 am

    Looks like a beautiful weekend! Wine at Walgreens/Grocery stores is amazing…I really hope PA gets on board soon. I want $0.49 wine ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Hope your cars get fixed quickly without too much major hassle! There is nothing more stressful or a rough start to a week than car troubles.

  12. Abby S on June 17, 2013 at 11:09 am

    I did workout 3 + cardio surge yesterday, after doing the last week 2 workout on Saturday (not the brightest idea) and I am SOOOO sore! Rest day today for sure! I’m so happy with the results so far ๐Ÿ™‚

  13. Kaila @healthyhelperblog! on June 17, 2013 at 11:09 am

    Love that peach skirt you’re wearing! Where’s it from!?

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 11:16 am

      thank you! LOFT

  14. Leanne on June 17, 2013 at 11:10 am

    Ummm ya I didn’t know if I was reading that .49 wine correctly. Not fair – we pay about 200% more than your normal price in Canada! So did you go back and clear the shelf?!

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 11:15 am

      no, they had a limit of 3! i’m going back today to get 3 more bottles- might as well stock up!

  15. Liz on June 17, 2013 at 11:11 am

    Do you know in Canada a bottle of Yellow Tail Shiraz is $11.99??!! I am jealous!

  16. courtstar @ starsystemz on June 17, 2013 at 11:13 am

    Good luck with the car trouble hope its something simple!! Love the 49 cent wine hahaha always the best kind! Love and shine Courtstar

  17. Laura on June 17, 2013 at 11:17 am

    Just finished workout 3, taking a blog break to catch my breath before my speed surge cardio!!

  18. Jill on June 17, 2013 at 11:22 am

    Completed my SSU work-out this morning! I was a sweaty mess.

  19. Christine@ Apple of My Eye on June 17, 2013 at 11:26 am

    I love your dress in the second picture! Is it a skirt and a top or attached?

    Also, Liv and the Pilot are SO cute together! He seems like such a wonderful husband and father ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 11:28 am

      it’s a skirt and top ๐Ÿ™‚
      and yes, we’re very lucky girls <3
      xoxo

  20. Jackie on June 17, 2013 at 11:27 am

    That bacon sounds ah-mazing. Looks like a great weekend ๐Ÿ™‚

  21. Danielle on June 17, 2013 at 11:46 am

    Love that skirt you’re wearing! Can’t believe how big Olivia is getting ๐Ÿ™‚

  22. char eats greens on June 17, 2013 at 11:48 am

    LOVE the skirt, Gina!!! And $0.49 wine sounds fantastic. We went to a friend’s last night and he cracked open a super vintage bottle of wine from France (pretty sure this thing was pricey) – and it showed…went down way to smoothly ๐Ÿ˜‰ haha

  23. Georgeann on June 17, 2013 at 12:00 pm

    Hey Gina!

    Do you do one summer shape-up per year, or will you have another? I’m fairly new to your blog (within the last couple of months), so I’m not sure how in works!

    Thanks!

  24. Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries on June 17, 2013 at 12:06 pm

    You look adorable! Love your outfit.

    Planning on giving Workout 3 a go today! I’ll let ya know how it goes. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  25. Nicole McCauley on June 17, 2013 at 12:15 pm

    Went to my Bootcamp class today instead of SSU… plenty of stairs and squats made up for it though! Hoping to do Workout 3 and Speed Surge Cardio tomorrow instead. Happy sweaty Monday to you all ๐Ÿ™‚

  26. Olivia on June 17, 2013 at 12:21 pm

    Love the workout 3!!! Renegades and burpees…good times.

  27. Michelle Lepka on June 17, 2013 at 12:31 pm

    Cute outfit! Where is it from?

  28. Danica @ It's Progression on June 17, 2013 at 12:40 pm

    I love that pink skirt outfit – super cute!

  29. Crystal on June 17, 2013 at 1:01 pm

    I’m going to chime in and agree with the other Canadian gals- wine is way too expensive here! Mind you- if it was $0.49 I might drink too much….

    Cheers ๐Ÿ˜‰

  30. Sheena on June 17, 2013 at 1:10 pm

    Love dem wine deals! I would stock up on those to repurpose as sangria. ๐Ÿ™‚

  31. Rebecca@Running.Food.Baby. on June 17, 2013 at 1:15 pm

    totally craving a non-frozen margarita now! With salt! I had a frozen one the other night and it had no salt ๐Ÿ™

    49 cent wine! wowzers! We don’t even get 4.99 wine where I live. It’s all 8+ dollars

  32. Stephanie on June 17, 2013 at 1:29 pm

    Love the pictures! So jealous of all that hair on Liv. We are still in the “just enough to clip” stage. Although, to be honest, as my daughter approaches 18 months and starts losing her “baby look” I get sad because time is going so fast so the lack of hair fools me into thinking she is still my baby ๐Ÿ™‚ And, I don’t know about you and you don’t have to say but lately Im getting that whole “hmm….I could do this again someday…soon? Right?!” And then I remember how much I love sleep! ๐Ÿ™‚

  33. Karissa on June 17, 2013 at 1:32 pm

    MMMMM all those food pictures look so tasty!! I’m glad you got to have a family weekend! ๐Ÿ™‚

  34. Rachel on June 17, 2013 at 1:34 pm

    workout #3 was awesome! those diamond boootays are bootay-licious. like everyone who has already commented, love your skirt! glad to be back in the swing of things after too much delicious vietnamese food w/ my bf’s fam for father’s day. can’t wait for day 2 tomorrow! #ssu

  35. RunEatRepeat on June 17, 2013 at 1:39 pm

    I want that skirt!!!!!!!!!!!!

  36. Tracy on June 17, 2013 at 1:42 pm

    Like everyone else, I love that skirt! Really really cute on you.

  37. mountain girl heidi on June 17, 2013 at 2:41 pm

    I did workout 2 yesterday (I know, I’m behind in the times), and it was killer. Part of it was because our gym was death (no AC — and old hangar building), and I had so much sweat dripping off me that I had to put a towel on the ball in order to keep my legs on it.

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 3:45 pm

      YESSSSS ๐Ÿ™‚

  38. RachelG on June 17, 2013 at 2:41 pm

    Oh my gosh, Livi is getting so big and looking more like her dad! I really hope that once my fiance and I start having kids my parents move closer. It’s fabulous that you guys are so close to your family, especially for the Pilot since his are on the other side of the country. ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 3:45 pm

      yes, we’re really lucky it worked out that way!
      i joke that my family likes tom more than they like me ๐Ÿ˜‰

  39. Rachel on June 17, 2013 at 2:42 pm

    Is it to late to sign up for the summer shape up?
    Thanks!

  40. Cara on June 17, 2013 at 3:02 pm

    Love the skirt! Workout 3 was a doozy! I never thought push-up to renegade rows could be so challenging! Loved it tho and am seeing some definite strength results!! Instead of doing the speed surge I took a spin class… Lets just say I think I left all of my spray tan on the floor;) ha! Thanks for the awesome workout again Gina!

  41. Jessica on June 17, 2013 at 3:18 pm

    Hey I totally have that pink skirt too–love wearing it with stripes!

    Workout 3 was awesome! I love that each week is really a different format alltogether and the SSU has thus far been teaching me to “work smarter & harder” rather than just longer… I think it is so easy to get into the trap of just adding minutes and minutes onto your cardio thinking that is what gets results–when a quick HIIT workout is so short and fun that it is over in a flash but really pushes you. Also loving the strength + short bursts of cardio.

    Thanks again for your hard work on this plan, amazing that it is free ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 3:43 pm

      that is so awesome! and yes, it’s all about just being efficient with your time. you really don’t need to work out longer than 30-45 minutes unless you’re training for something, or you want to.
      so happy to hear you’re enjoying it!!

  42. jenna on June 17, 2013 at 3:47 pm

    Aren’t Arizona storms the BEST? Not to mention Arizona Mexican food…<3

  43. Naomi on June 17, 2013 at 3:54 pm

    Workout three this morning was great! Fast paced and fun. I was short on time so I completed two rounds and an ab burner–hoping to add on a third round next time! Thanks for all of these workouts Gina!

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 4:16 pm

      whoo hoo! great job, naomi ๐Ÿ™‚

  44. Beverly Aragon on June 17, 2013 at 3:57 pm

    Much love for SSU Workout 3! It’s got some of my faves (plie squats, bicep curls, tricep dips) so I was a cheesy-grin girl doing this workout at the casa before work this morning ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 4:15 pm

      awww, yay! ๐Ÿ™‚

  45. Kristi on June 17, 2013 at 4:06 pm

    Sounds like a fun weekend! Love that skirt you have on in pic #2 btw!

  46. Susie on June 17, 2013 at 4:37 pm

    Just finished Workout 3 (except for the diamond booty since I’m preggo and laying on my stomach’s not happening anymore!). It was great!! Hoping to get outside for the cardio when my 16 month old wakes up from her nap! ๐Ÿ™‚

  47. Mackenzie on June 17, 2013 at 4:44 pm

    Gina,

    I’m not sure why, but I didn’t get the Week 3 email… and as a result can’t log in to see this week’s workout! I received Weeks 1 and 2, so I don’t think it’s a spam issue. Do you mind resending it to me?

    Thanks so much for the great workouts!

    • Fitnessista on June 17, 2013 at 4:55 pm

      that is so weird! i can’t go into the system and resend (without sending it to everyone) but email me and i’ll get the password to you

  48. Mary Kathryn on June 17, 2013 at 4:55 pm

    I loved the added running! The push-up renegade rows KILL me!

  49. joelle (on a pink typewriter) on June 17, 2013 at 5:13 pm

    These pics all look so cute, and I especially love the last one! Also, cute purple bracelet- where’s it from?

  50. Mara on June 17, 2013 at 5:14 pm

    AHHHH!

    Somehow I deleted your week three email with the password :(. Would you mind sending it to me?

    I’m sorry!
