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
Wow, and I only just discovered your blog! Don’t worry I’ve been reading up on the archives! ๐ I would love to see some more posts on how to keep a healthy/happy mentality in daily life!
More gluten-free recipes!!
This next year….I want more of the same! And next year, I surely would love baby videos. I <3 baby videos… I hope you do them!
Happy anniversary! I love your blog and I love how it’s evolved over the past three years! It’s definitely something you should be proud of! I would love to learn more about interval training … I have just started doing workouts from bodyrock.tv and love them… And of course in the next year ALL about baby!
Happy Blogiversary! I would love to see lots of posts on becoming a mommy and starting a family! I love the way your blog is now and I think this would be a great addition. Thank you so much Gina, for everything you do and for always inspiring me to live a healthier life! ๐
Can’t wait to see more baby/family posts this year! such an exciting time! Also, I love your fashion friday and fitness spotlight posts.
Happy Blogiversary!
– I would honestly love to see more family post, you & your family seem sooo fun.
– Also more recipe/cooking YT videos. Or maybe even fashion YT videos.
– Baby post with Miss Bella, see how she is adjusting to her new sibling.
– And i know this may be thinking a little ahead of time, but maybe lunch box post=D Or home-made baby food?! ..Will you be raising your baby GF? Vegan? Vegetarian? Quasitarian?
Please forgive my random ideas, Im a gemini.
I am looking forward to hearing about the baby as well as some new recipes!
More of the same! I think your blog is awesome and I wouldn’t change a thing. If anything, more recipes! I love your cookie dough cereal, foodgasm!
I can’t wait for more baby bump pics!!! Gahhhhhh, I can’t tell you how happy I am for you and Tom!
K first of all…holy shiza! Apparently if you want to have 2000+ people post on your page, you need to dangle Lululemon in front of them :P. You sure do know the way to a fit girl’s heart!
Next year, I’d like to see:
1. More recipes on the blog (esp. sweets and “healthy” baked goods!)
2. More photos of mundane day-to-day stuff…I’m a huge fan of the everyday
3. Obviously tons of baby-related stuff (congrats again, btw!)
More posts on your great fashion sense. Congrats on 3 years.
Summer shape up and more ways to mix up workout routines!
Baby bump and news ๐
By this time next year how you snapped back to pre baby
More delicious recipes , and everyday awesomeness ๐
How life is with pilot home new house and new baby ๐
Hmmm i LOVE the summer shape up series, because it’s so much better than any other workout regime i’ve attempted, it’s sensible and the food is GOOD and a variety!! so keep those coming, not just in summer ๐
Three things I would like to see in the next year (in celebration of the 3 theme…)
OK, 1-2-3 GO!
1.) Three amigos in the backyard of your new house!!! (deets on how you plan to decorate the new house)
2.) An sneak peak into three chapters of your upcoming book. I can’t wait!
3.) TRIPLETS! ๐
Baby shenanigans, obviously ๐
Thank so much for your hard work, Gina!
I am enjoying the addition of the family posts and hope you continue them in the next year. I also always love a good recipe!
Looking forward to recipes! I’m always on the look out for fast/healthy/easy recipes to make and your blog has so many good ones!
I would love to hear about the “3” of you and more recipes that are quick and nutritious for busy families. ๐

Auntie Meg would like to see a ton of fun baby things (of course), some fun new fashion posts, and exciting things that I KNOW are in the future for my favorite Pilot/Fitnessista couple. <333
As a proud Mama I am enjoying your family posts! Looking forward to seeing more ๐ Happy 3rd Blogiversary!!
I am looking forward to great baby shower/nursery ideas and losing the baby weight! Congrats on 3 years! I love your blog!
hm…i’m not so much into the fashion, but i love he recipes!
I’d be interested in hearing about what it’s like to get back into shape after having your baby.
I’d love to see more workouts and protein powder recipes! And as a fellow mommy, adorable posts about the baby. The family posts so far are making me feel very nostalgic ๐
Happy 3yrs!
I am so excited to see how you stay fit during your pregnancy and how you get your body back after!
I’ve been following you for years and am so happy about your bun in the oven ๐ Congrats on three years! I think the greater cause for celebration will be in 7ish months!
Id like to see more posts on self image! ๐
Happy 3rd year anniversary to you!!! I personally cannot WAIT to follow you along your awesome journey to become a MUM!! Nothing will ever beat that, and i cant wait to read all about once bub and beyond is born, sooo exciting!!!
I would love to see more baby bump pics. I’m always curious to see how a woman’s body blooms before, during & after pregnancy. Probably due to the fact that everyone I know is having a baby and its making me baby crazed. ๐
I would love to see some more of your healthful recipes to fuel a fitness-focused lifestyle!
On the blog next year I would like to see more Q & A posts! I love being able to ask you one-on-one questions about diet and fitness
Happy Blogiversary! And congrats on the little munchkin!
I love being a mom so much and I am so excited to hear about your adventures!

hi Gina, i love your blog and i just wanted to enjoy reading your everyday eatings and the process of your pregnancy and everyday life.
Now that you are on the family way, I’d like to read about fitness activities incorporating the little one!
I would love to see more fashion posts and recipes!
i love your fashion posts, you have such great style!
I’m loving your fashion posts – and that’s not usually something I love on blogs. Could have something to do with last time you showed new sandals they were the ones I’d just bought ๐
And of course, can’t wait for itty bitty finessista or pilot content!
You are so upbeat and positive everyday. I would like to see your workouts and food combinations now that you are pregnant.
I want to see more clean eats, fun stuff in your life (house, baby!, family etc.) and i love your music suggestions!
I am looking forward to hearing about how you find balance between work, baby, exercise, and everything else in between!
I LOVE your fitness posts. You always do such fun things and I love the posts where you explain the new trends!
I’ve been loving your fashion posts, so more of those!!
I’d like to see you continue with what you’ve been doing… I enjoy everything that you post the way it is!!!! But maybe add a little (ok, A LOT!!) of baby updates!! ๐
I am SO looking forward to hearing more about the baby and your new home! Congratulations!
I can’t wait to see your journey through pregnancy, and how you stay fit during and after!
