A very special blogiversary [giveaway]- ended
Hi friends 🙂 How’s your morning going? Hope you’re 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 didn’t 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 aren’t what matter– it’s about the community, support, discussions and relationships that have been created in this tiny speck on the internet 🙂 You are 99.9% of the reason why this blog is what it is… I just write it, you’re the ones who show up for the party 🙂
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. It’s changed and evolved with me, and I’ve 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 🙂 I picked a few of my absolute favorite things and this giveaway is sponsored by myself and the Pilot 😀
To go with the “3 years” 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)
(I’m OBSESSED with the new crochet ones!! And everyone needs this blush)
-1 Twitter friend will receive a iTools Style Winder 1” curling iron ($140)
(I still owe ya a video on how to use it, because it’s life-changing)
+ each winner will receive a dozen macaroons in a flavor of their choice 😀
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 🙂
Love you guys,
Gina
As a fitness enthusiast myself, who hopes one day to be blessed enough for a child, I am interested in seeing how you balance your pregnancy with fitness, healthy living, and just life in general.
Happy 3rd year! Can’t believe it’s been so long! I’d love to see more awesome workouts and of course BABY pictures 🙂
Happy blogiversary!!!!! So fab.
I have been a followed for I can’t believe- 2 years now! And we are currently trying to start a fam over here as well so for the next year sprucing your already wonderful fitness/food focus with a bit of pregnancy, raising a fam with wholesome foods would be glorious!
I love it when you post how to pack meals for someone who works full time or meals that can be made in large portions and divided for a weeks worth of lunches. That is always a cloud over my shoulder each week. And having new ideas helps me look forward to making my meals. Plus the baby stuff is always so fun! Congrats!
love that jacket! happy 3 years!
Woo Hoo!! This is a great giveaway..
I can’t wait to hear about all things baby this next year. I’m so curious to see how it affects everyone’s bodies and lives. Keep up the awesome work! 🙂
I like you on facebook and look forward to a sweat-inducing cardio session!
My favorite news would have to be the baby news, and the pilot coming home. So happy for the both of you. And I would definitely like to see more fashion post-you have good taste. 🙂
Congrats on three years. That’s my favorite blush ever. I use it almost everyday even if I’m not wearing eye makeup. I love it. Have you tried the super orgasm with the sparkles?
Following you on Twitter, homegirl! And I tweeted! 🙂
Like a lot of other people, I’d like to see things about your baby. I know you said you didn’t want this to become a baby blog, but I think it’ll be something most everyone is excited to hear about!
Wow! 3 years! Congratulations! I’m slowing catching up on past posts 😀 I hope to see more realistic meals and workouts and fashion tips. And baby pics too!
what a perfectly-gina giveaway! 🙂 congrats on three AMAZING years and many more to come! in the future, i hope we get to see an overload of fitnessista-pilot baby pictures! as someone who hopes for a family in a few years, i would love to read about your experience throughout pregnancy (loving the family page posts!) and your adventures as a new mom.
I would love to see the progression of your pregnancy and family thereafter. You are very inspiring and motivational. Keep it up. CONGRATULATIONS on everything!
Happy blog birthday!! I read this page every day, ok, ok, maybe twice or three times 🙂 You cover such a wide variety of topics and the recipes are amazing. Breakfast cookie usually doesn’t make it to breakfast… In the coming year, I can’t wait to read about your expanded family. It would also be nice to have some info on willpower and tips others have used to control binge eating. As always, keep up the amazing work!
I LOVE reading the baby posts… and your shopping posts. You are going to have some ridiculously cute maternity outfits!
Happy blogiversary! Workout advice and new smoothie recipes!
Congrats on 3 years! In the next year I am excited to see how you keep up your healthy lifestyle while pregnant and how you adapt after the baby, and of course all fashion and food recipes you can share along the way. I am hoping for a baby in the near future so it is always inspirational to see how a fit mom does it.
Just waiting to see how your fitness and food evolve while becoming a mother. It is a huge journey. I don’t really think I became who I am today until I had my 3(16,11,9). Congrats!
I love your blog! I just love reading about your eats, work outs and all your cool tips! If the next year is like that, I’ll be happy!
Happy blogiversary! Even though I don’t have an interest in being pregnant any time soon, I’m looking forward to more of your family posts and following that journey! I’m also looking forward to more inspirational quotes – your “something to think” posts at the end sometimes make my whole day and help to push me forward!
Wow 3 years flies by! Happy blogiversary! Great giveaway also 🙂 I haven’t seen the crocheted Toms!! They’re SOOOO cute!!!
I think you should just keep being awesomsauce next year and definitely have updates for the bambino!
Looking forward to learning more about how to balance life, fitness, fun, and health. Keep the recipes coming! Congratulations.
Best,
Jackie

Congrats on all the great things going on in your life right now – and thanks for the daily inspiration. I’d love to see something on time management – especially since you will be a new mom soon. My biggest struggle is fitting it all in – healthy meal planning, exercise and family time. Seems like you make lots of lists – which I do too – but getting them all checked off never seems to happen!
I tweeted and liked you on facebook but wanted to also say congrats on three years!!! I look forward to seeing more fun/healthy/on the go recipes like the amazeballz! Thanks for everything you do 😀
I already liked you on Facebook forever ago and have followed you on twitter just as long! 🙂 What would I love to see on the blog in the next year? Hmm…How ’bout that macaroon recipe? A girl can DREAM, right? Love the blog, BTW.
Hi Gina! I think this is my first time commenting, but I started reading your blog a few months ago and <3 it! In the next year, I'd like to see more shape ups and meal plans, and posts about how to tailor your workouts around your busy, unique schedule. Keep up the good work!
hmmm what do i want to see? baby pictures now!
