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
I’d love to see more reviews of workout gear. I know you love your Lululemon but what else out there do you love?
You are so outrageously generous! Over the next year, I can’t wait to see more about the baby yayyy!
I want to see how you decide to balance your active and healthy lifestyle with pregnancy and all that comes with it!
I would love to see more recipe ideas for quick/yummy/filling snacks!
I would love to see how you balance your “me” time & mommy time. I struggle with this first hand with an 8 month old at home…
I just hope you stick with the blog even with a little one to look after – I love it!
I want to see the balance between the life you currently live (date nights, fitness clases & such) with your new adventure (pregnancy! And weird cravings!! )….and of course, your usual fun fashions & shopping shenanigans…Congrats!
More family pics/dog pics!! Also, LOVE the fashion page… keep expanding on that it’s fabulous!
I want to see a baby on this blog!
I’d love to see the babyyyy on the blog in the next year, I’m so excited for you guys!!!
I would love to see more recipes and I’m so looking forward to reading more about your growing family!! 🙂 Congratulations on your blogiversary
Happy anniversary, Gina! I’d love to see posts about your workouts during and after pregnancy. Also, more fashion posts!
I want to see more about your life as a pregnant mommy-to-be! I seriously love your positivity, commitment to help and love how you’re documenting the process!
I’d like to see more of your opinion on popular fitness & nutrition fads and trends!
Happy Birthday Blog!
Congrats girl on everything! You really do help and inspire people everyday 🙂 I hope you continue this for a long long time.
I’d love to see anything that has to do with the baby and being pregnant!! It also would be interesting to see how/if your eating style changes further into the pregnancy and with birth of the babe. 🙂
Excited to see more baby posts! Also love the grocery lists, snack ideas, and recipes!
I would LOVE to see more family posts! So happy for you & the pilot! 🙂
More gluten-free recipes and posts! Congratulations on the blogiversary!!!
Would love to see more Zumba-related posts (song suggestions, teaching tips, etc.) since I recently got licensed to teach it so I can use all the help I can get 🙂
I’d love to learn more about how to incorporate fitness into my life when facing changes – pregnancy, injury, time constraints……and always looking to learn more about incorporating healthy food choices 🙂
a few things i’d love to see on your blog:
pregnancy friendly workouts
highlighting different types of yoga
some video blogs about some of the things you write about- like you showing how easy it is to make some of your staple recipes, or doing a 10 minute ‘water break’ core work out for people who need a break at work, etc
doing a little rundown of your favorite inspirational blogs on different topics
i’m a newer reader, but look forward to your daily posts!
Feliz Cumpleanos!
On your blog over the next year I would like to see your fitness and diet change and progress while being pregnant and becoming a mother and a family. It will also be interesting to see what food choices you make for yourself, Fitnessista Baby and Pilot.
More baby posts:) yay!
Honestly, I’m most excited to see all the awesome baby stuff in the next year! By this time next year your little one will have joined the party, and it will be amazing!!! 🙂 Congrats on 3 years! What a commitment!
I’d love to see more fashion & pregnancy posts. I just had a baby and love to hear what others have to say!! Congrats on everything!
I would love to see more family posts, and more about yoga!
what an awesome give-away!!!
i’d like to see perhaps more comments about your thoughts on health, diet, workouts, etc., when there’s a day that’s hard and how you overcome it, how maybe you’d like to eat really unhealthy food and whether you’d pass on it or say heck why not, as long as i try to counterbalance it….etc. so i guess my point is, the thought process that may go through your head. it seems to natural for you to just be so healthy and dedicated to working out, and as a reader, i don’t know if it’s always really easy for you. maybe seeing some of the struggles you’d potentially have will help US know how to overcome the same struggles that you do…
just a thought..
I can’t wait to see your new adjustment to fitness family style. To be honest, I’m super excited to see you learn to be a mommy and share that with us! 🙂
I can’t wait to hear more about the baby!!!
I would love to see more recipes.
Hey Gina!
Now that you’re gearing up for mommyhood, (congratulations! it’s anawesome/scary/exciting/confusing thing to experience)I’d love to see some ideas in the next year for healthy baby/toddler food. [Ok, so that would be verrry far into the next year that you’d even have to consider, but I’m running out of ideas for my daughter over here and really need some help. 😉 ]
Happy blogiversary! 🙂 I’d love to see more playlists and circuit workouts like the ones for Summer Shape Up!
I’d like to see me win a macaroon giveaway! Or maybe, even…the recipe?!?!? I know, I know. I won’t hold my breath but I’m hoping! Happy blogiversary!
i would love to see more fashion posts on this blog! and DIY once you get the houseyyy 🙂
I would see and hear more posts about the baby. More recipes would be much appreciated !!!
3 years awesome! looking forward to your pregnancy journey!
Definitely recipes, eat to implement meals for families (those with kids too), easy but healthy snack ideas, how to reduce gluten/wheat (very hard for me). Thanks so much!!
I would love to see more eating plans. I love this blog, I love you really promote strength training, and weight lifting!
i am looking forward to seeing more of your fashion posts!
I would love to see more easy recipes that are good for college age students who don’t always have access to produce/ a kitchen!
I would love to see your post-baby workouts and health. As someone who hopes to be a mother soon, I look forward to pay attention. I love your blog. I only recently found it. Thanks for writing!
Next year I want to see a get a 6 pack workout! It would be fun to see before and after from after your pregnancy.
Holy moly happy blogiversary! I would love more of the ‘Focus On’ series, as its opened me up to different things I was hesitant to try. I’d also be down for seeing some recipe action; nothing crazy, just a smattering of tasty food how-to’s every once in a while 🙂
I LOVE your blog! Happy Blog-iversary!!
I would like to see more recipes for two… and any ideas for couples who are split- I’m vegetarian (no meat or fish), and my hubby-to-be is a carnivore…. what’s a girl to do?
I would love to see more quick healthy recipes!
more recipes! 🙂 🙂
Gina – Congrats on 3 years. I know you have stated that your blog won’t change with the baby on-the-way or after. I support that 100%. After two kids, I know how important it is to keep some things as they are and pure despite how children will change everything. So what I want to see in the next year is you being open to how you will use this blog to capture the natural changes you will experience – spritually, physically, mentally, and completely. As you do so well… roll with it and let this life event gauge what you focus on in the next year. Your readers are important and its fantastic that you ask what we’d like to see more of in the next year, yet your readers take their cue from you. So I want to see this year is what comes natural to you and you being open to what these natural changes guide you to focus on. I can’t wait. All my best to you.
More yummy recipes& a variety of at home workout ideas/routines 🙂
I love the fashion posts – keep them coming!
Congrats on 3 years! I’d love to see more specifics on how you fuel your workouts – what to eat & when, etc. Thanks!
