A very special blogiversary [giveaway]- ended
Hi friends ๐ Howโs your morning going? Hope youโre having a wonderful day. <3
So the blog is 3 years old!!
The blog actually turned 3 last week, but with the Summer Shape Up and exciting news, I didnโt want to overload the week with too much going on.
For this post, I was originally planning on doing a list of events that have happened in the past 3 years, and then I realized:
1. A LOT of stuff has gone down and
2. the events arenโt what matter– itโs about the community, support, discussions and relationships that have been created in this tiny speck on the internet ๐ You are 99.9% of the reason why this blog is what it isโฆ I just write it, youโre the ones who show up for the party ๐
This little blog began as an urge to share my love of health and a distraction from online shopping while I was bored in Valdosta – it has grown so much in the past 3 years. Itโs changed and evolved with me, and Iโve had so much fun writing every word.
As a little thank you for changing my life, making this so rewarding and enjoyable, and just for being awesome, I thought it would be fun to do a little giveaway. Giving is always better than receiving for special occasions, anyway ๐ I picked a few of my absolute favorite things and this giveaway is sponsored by myself and the Pilot ๐
To go with the โ3 yearsโ theme, there will be 3 different winners:
-1 commenter will receive my favorite lululemon jacket, the Define Jacket in a color/size of their choice ($99)
-1 Facebook fan will receive a pair of Toms shoes (size/color of choice) and a Nars Orgasm blush from Sephora ($100)
(Iโm OBSESSED with the new crochet ones!! And everyone needs this blush)
-1 Twitter friend will receive a iTools Style Winder 1โ curling iron ($140)
(I still owe ya a video on how to use it, because itโs life-changing)
+ each winner will receive a dozen macaroons in a flavor of their choice ๐
This means you have 3 different ways to win 3 different prizes:
***This giveaway has ended as of 9:35 EST on June 15.
Thank you again for an incredible 3 years ๐
Love you guys,
Gina

Happy anniversary, blog! I love this blog because its a nice balance of everything (fashion, family, workouts, and eats). Do you and the Pilot do workouts together? It would be fun to see your ideas on things you and significant other could do together. My husband and I love to take Saturdays and go running or biking together, but its getting kind of old (and he’s getting tired of my slower pace…even though he never complains about it!).
I’d love to read more about creating a healthy balance.
Facebook commented! And liked!
I want to see more baby stuff. Love your family page. I’m excited for your family!!
I’m looking forward to just watching where this next year takes you as a mommy! Happy blog birthday, Gina!
I enjoy the talks about food content and nutrition and hope on the blog next year you will share more of your knowledge!
Happy three years! I love reading your blog and look forward to hearing all about your growing family! The bambino/a is gonna be adorable!
I would LOVE to see more raw/Vegan recipes on the Fitnessista…..I’ve been Vegan for 2 years (I’m 21) and am trying to transition into a high-raw diet, I need all the help I can get! I’ve tried some of your raw recipes before an they blew me away! More please! Oh and lots of baby stuff! =D
Congrats! I would love to see more workouts!
I would like some more recipes and tips for weight loss! Congrats to you!!!!
I’d love to read about your new little baby!!!!
Happy Blogiversary! As a new reader of your blog, I love the workouts and healthy eats that you post! The summer shape up is a great template to gather ideas from!
Happy Blogiversary!! I would love to see more about how you plan to continue/adjust your healthy lifestyle with all of the new changes in your life. I would also love to see more fashion posts as you have some serious style and I know you’ll have one cutely dressed baby!!!
Happy Blogversary! I’d love to see more family posts on being pregnant and fit! I just found out I’m pregnant with my second baby (actually the day after you posted your exciting news!). Even though you totally don’t know me, I’ve been a lurker for a while and I’m looking forward to being pregnant together!
I love everything on your blog, but i really love your breakfast ideas. They have changed my life! I’m finally not hungry before lunchtime! I also can’t wait to see how you’ll alter your workouts and diet with the bean in tow ๐
Thanks for writing this blog! I recently found it and I am enjoying your healthy recipes and excercise posts ๐
Although I think you have the balance of fitness/fashion/food/shenanigans down to an art form, I would love to see how you keep healthy during pregnancy, as well as how you plan to bounce back post delivery! Happy 3rf Bloggaversary! I look forward to reading every. Single. Day.
I’d love to see some maternity fashion posts – and how to keep looking fashion-y when pregnant on a budget!
Love your workouts! They kick my butt. Congrats on 3 years!
I love reading your blog everyday and I was estatic to hear about the little one on the way. I can’t believe your blog is 3 years old! Congrats x2!
I would love to hear more about the process of becoming a personal trainer, Zumba instructor, Dance Trance instructor, and full-time blogger. You have been so successful and I’m sure you have a lot of info and tips for newbies wanting to do something similar.
Congrats on 3 great years! Like a lot of the other readers said, I love how your blog incorporates so many things that I love: fashion, fitness, recipes, exercise, and life in general. I’d love to see more workout tips and ideas in the next year.
I can’t wait to read more about your pregnancy journey! So excited for you!
Congrats & happy blogiversary! 3 years is no small feat, my friend! In the next year, I am super excited to read about all your adventures in mommyhood (complete with pics of the adorable lil nugget, of course). Also, I would love to see more recipes & how-tos ๐
Want to see baby pics ๐
Congrats Gina! You are so loved and I feel so lucky to get a peak into your life everyday! I think it would be really interesting for you to do a post on eats and exercise routine now and what you love/struggle with now that you have a bun in the oven.
Hmm… I still can’t get myself to use the foam roller regularly. Maybe posts about foam roller circuit or exercises/good things to do?
Congratulations! I hope you continue to post great recipes, workouts, and advice for healthy living! I also would love continued family posts to see your diet/fitness throughout your pregnancy. Oh, and also more fashion/makeup posts! Thanks Gina!
Happy Blogiversary! I’d like to see more party ideas and entertaining on a budget. Love the blog, keep up the great work!

Congrats!
happy blog birthday! i’m really looking forward to the pregnancy posts – i’m not even close to considering that path for myself at the moment, but i’m still excited to read about your journey ๐ and, of course, i hope there will continue to be so many great recipes and workout tips!
I would love to see more shape-up plans and of course more shenanigans with the pilot and your new wawa! I’m super excited/happy for you :-).
I just love the new family posts — they are such a joy to read! Keep those coming ๐
im looking forward to the next nine months for you and how we’ll be able to be there with you each step of the way (mostly).
All I want is that awesome jacket from lululemon!! OMG I LOVE IT! <3
I’d love to see the workouts coming, but also how you workout and eat when you’re pregnant! i love the current content, but a little bit of baby news is always nice!
Congrats! I would love to see how Bella adjusts to a baby in the house. I’m a total animal lover and love it when you feature pictures of her cute face.
I would love to see more workouts (LOVING the summer shape up right now!) and perhaps some success stories of readers who have completed one or several of your shape up series’ w/ before and after pics and such. Also, I love the “Show me your fit” posts you do. I’ve gotta send in some pics for that! Thanks for writing! <3
I already love the current content! I guess I’d have to say hearing about fitness during a pregnancy would be great!
I am loving the family posts and cant wait to see the” little nugget” when you post pics (if u post pics) some ppl don’t for security purposes u know.
I am also loving the shape ups and hope those continue
and pilot posts are pretty cool too ๐
HAPPY 3 YEARS FITNESSISTA!
