“HIIT It” thank you giveaway

Hi friends! Hope you’re having a lovely morning! I have a pretty exciting giveaway to share with you today, as a “thank you” for all of your wonderful support here on the blog and with “HIIT It!”

I started this little blog at a major transition point in my life. We had just moved to Valdosta which was a little over 1800 miles from lifelong family and friends. It definitely felt like I was starting from scratch. I was also beginning my journey into the fitness world. It was good to have a hobby I truly enjoyed in such an unfamiliar place. Of course, that hobby turned into passion, and the more I learned, the more I wanted to share. The blog became that platform, and it changed my life. I’m so thankful to all of you for stopping by here, and for making this the fun and lovely community that it’s become. My gratitude extends to everyone for helping make “HIIT It!” a reality. So to thank you, I thought I’d put together a huge giveaway prize for a lucky reader featuring some of my favorite things. This isn’t sponsored in any way – it’s just a little love and thanks for all the support you’ve given me. 

Here’s what the lucky winner will receive:

Gratitude giveaway

a LUSH Ocean Salt body scrub (this smells extremely light and fresh, and leave skin super soft)

a Pura Vida bracelet (the same beaded one I wear every day!)

-a Marc by Marc Jacobs mini Natasha crossbody (my very favorite purse)

-an Erin Condren life planner

-an assortment of chocolates, nut butters, bars, and homemade macaroons

-a personalized copy of “HIIT It!” (if you have one already, I can send it to a friend for you!)

Hiit it  1 of 1 2

Here’s how to enter: (3 total possible entries)

-Leave a comment with something that makes you happy 🙂

-If you’d like a bonus entry, it would be amazing if you picked up a copy of “HIIT It!’ (available through Amazon and Barnes and Noble) and left an extra comment. If you preordered (thank you so much!!), be sure to leave an extra comment

-Please help me spread the word! Leave an extra comment to let me know what you did. Did you “HIIT It!” with a friend? Pin/Facebook/tweet/Instagram? Leave an extra comment and let me know how you share the love. <3

The lucky winner will be chosen next Thursday at midnight EST and announced in Friday Faves on Friday, January 30. International friends: since I am shipping this out, I’m happy to send the goodie package anywhere in the world.

Thank you again for being here, and for being such a light in my life.

xoxo

Gina

    Relaxing with some blog reading is making me happy!

    Yesterday I was having a rough day but then I saw two beautiful puppies being walked by their owner on my way to a meeting. Definitely made me stop and smile and also put things in perspective!

  3. Beth on January 21, 2015 at 6:38 pm

    Coffee and hot yoga make me happy (in that order :))!

  4. Jen C. on January 21, 2015 at 6:38 pm

    7 week old baby grins make me happy!

  5. Beth on January 21, 2015 at 6:38 pm

    Preordered from Amazon! 🙂

  6. Karen on January 21, 2015 at 6:38 pm

    Warm coffee on a chilly morning makes me happy (or iced coffee on a summer morning).

  7. Molly DeMond on January 21, 2015 at 6:39 pm

    Crossing off the last item on my to-do list for the day; lazy Sunday mornings with my husband; saving room for dessert; so much to choose from!

  8. Tiffany on January 21, 2015 at 6:40 pm

    Enjoying some much-needed me time is making me happy. My husband is out of town, the kids are in bed, and it’s just me, a Ghirardelli square and lots of Bravo on the DVR.

    It also made me happy to read your book’s introduction. I’ve picked up bits and pieces of your background here on the blog, but it was interesting to read your story all in one place. Cheers!

  9. Maggie on January 21, 2015 at 6:40 pm

    A bowl of coffee + greek yogurt makes me giddy

  10. Sarah b on January 21, 2015 at 6:42 pm

    Drinking a smoothie in the winter while wearing sweatpants, a sweatshirt, and fuzzy socks!!!! This makes me happy 🙂

  11. Sarah b on January 21, 2015 at 6:43 pm

    I ordered a copy through B and N!!!

  12. Pam on January 21, 2015 at 6:44 pm

    My puppy makes me happy 🙂

  13. Katie on January 21, 2015 at 6:44 pm

    My Toddler, Drake. He is the light in my life <3

  14. Molly on January 21, 2015 at 6:45 pm

    Spending time with family… that and a really fantastic glass of wine. Even better when they are together!

  15. Charlotte on January 21, 2015 at 6:46 pm

    Nice, sunny weather makes me happy (a rarity in rainy Vancouver winters)

  16. Shay on January 21, 2015 at 6:47 pm

    Lately I’m happiest when we get a lazy morning at home. I’ve been working a lot lately so they are fewer than normal, but waking up to a talking baby and two six year olds climbing in bed for snuggles gets the day going just right.

  17. Sarah b on January 21, 2015 at 6:48 pm

    I told the teachers I work with about your book!!

  18. Ilene on January 21, 2015 at 6:49 pm

    Winding down at the end of each night with some Netflix or a good book make me so happy 🙂

  19. Aimee on January 21, 2015 at 6:53 pm

    Spending time with my husband andkids, especially on a warm summer day!

  20. Meredith on January 21, 2015 at 6:53 pm

    Body pump has been making me happy this week! I broke my wrist just under 2 years ago and have had a hard time getting back to the gym, but I am finally starting to feel strong and healthy thanks to BP 🙂

  21. Kate on January 21, 2015 at 6:56 pm

    YOU make me happy! Yours was the first healthy living blog I read and it opened my eyes to so many healthy living blogs. The community has given me so many ideas, inspiration, and motivation to live a life I was already living, but now connected me to so many others I relate to which is truly an amazing thing to be apart of.

  22. Monica on January 21, 2015 at 6:58 pm

    A day off to wander and explore my city!

  23. Hannah on January 21, 2015 at 6:58 pm

    Things that make me happy-wine and coffee!

  24. Alycia on January 21, 2015 at 6:59 pm

    Time with my husband and son makes me super happy! Sunshine makes me happy! Starbucks Frappuccino make me happy! ?

  25. Iris R. on January 21, 2015 at 7:00 pm

    Running and yoga make me happy! Thanks for the giveaway – can’t wait to dig into your book.

  26. Kayla on January 21, 2015 at 7:00 pm

    My daughters, Anna and Elise, who are 17 months old. They have had a bug since Saturday and both girls finally seemed to be back to their almost-normal selves today. I walked into the day care at the gym and saw Anna playing peacefully by herself with the Matchbox cars and a little track, and Elise building block towers with an older girl (maybe 10 years old). And then, after dinner, they stood at their little table and set up all of their Little People, giggling and smiling at/with each other. Cue heart melting.

  27. Alycia on January 21, 2015 at 7:01 pm

    I ordered the Kindle copy of the book and I am loving it! I would live a physical copy though to dog ear and mark pages.

  28. Elizabeth on January 21, 2015 at 7:01 pm

    running, the beach and coffee!

  29. tonya on January 21, 2015 at 7:02 pm

    Happiness is: baby giggles, inspirational blogs (this one!), friends, family, reading, texts, wine!

  30. tonya on January 21, 2015 at 7:03 pm

    I preordered 🙂

  31. Jessie on January 21, 2015 at 7:07 pm

    Skiing in the beautiful CO mountains, wine, and tacos!

  32. Amy on January 21, 2015 at 7:07 pm

    Books, babies, and rainy mornings

  33. Christine on January 21, 2015 at 7:07 pm

    Happiness is watching my kids do what they love – baseball, hockey and softball!

  34. Nikki on January 21, 2015 at 7:10 pm

    What makes me happy: My husband and 2 kids! Life wouldn’t be the same without them:)

  38. Rebecca M on January 21, 2015 at 7:19 pm

    I have to be honest, morning sickness and dreariness of winter are wearing on me right now, but the thing that makes me come out of that funk is seeing my husband making our son smile or laugh 🙂

  39. Ashley on January 21, 2015 at 7:21 pm

    Right now the QUIET is making me happy! : ) I’ve got twin girls who have been teething-monsters lately and its no fun for anyone! I just put them to bed and the silence is golden! <3

  40. Laura on January 21, 2015 at 7:21 pm

  42. Emily S on January 21, 2015 at 7:23 pm

    Happiness is spending time with my fiance!

  43. Jen on January 21, 2015 at 7:24 pm

    Knowing that what I do for a living — research and consulting on women’s full development, inclusion, and advancement in the workplace — impacts not just women, but also their partners, extended families, and society! It makes the very long, hard days worth it 🙂

  44. Cassie on January 21, 2015 at 7:24 pm

    It’s almost Friday…and that is making me
    happy 😉

    I had a great PiYo workout tonight and it’s a new to me class, that I’m really enjoying! 🙂

    I tweeted about the book today! Here’s what I said:

    My 1st workout from @fitnessista ‘s book HIIT It: the total body circuit, combined with a modified cardio workout from the book. I’m toast!!

  50. Marisa V on January 21, 2015 at 7:29 pm

    Going running with my chocolate lab makes me happy! He loves being active and outdoors. His excitement to run makes me remember why I started running in the first place.
