    I would love more fitness routines to shake things up especially in the mid section.



  2. Jackie L. on December 22, 2010 at 4:04 pm

    Great giveaway! I would love to see some more outdoor workouts, now that you are in such a serene place. Thanks!



  3. Brianna on December 22, 2010 at 4:06 pm

    I would LOVE to see more work out moves of the week. I love to include them in my workout. And I’d love to see more playlists! 🙂 Your blog is one of my favs! Hope the new house is fantastic!



  4. Joshua on December 22, 2010 at 4:07 pm

    liked the fitnessista on fb!



  5. jae on December 22, 2010 at 4:08 pm

    hmm more ways to workout when youre a student?



  6. Carrie on December 22, 2010 at 4:09 pm

    I’d love to see more recipes in 2011! Especially recipes that don’t use the dehydrator (there’s nothing wrong with those, just don’t have one!)



  7. Caroline on December 22, 2010 at 4:11 pm

    I loved your winter shape up last year and still refer back to it for ideas. I’d love to see more of that next year!



  8. Leigh on December 22, 2010 at 4:11 pm

    Hmmmm, more of the Pilot? 🙂



  9. Ana on December 22, 2010 at 4:11 pm

    I like fitnessista on facebook!



  10. Ana on December 22, 2010 at 4:13 pm

    I like healthy recipes and workouts, but I already like your blog just the way it is!
    Nice giveaway, I am obsessed with coconut lately, and macaroons are totally delicious!

  11. Zahra on December 22, 2010 at 4:17 pm

    I would love to see more raw recipes, especially raw deserts! yum!



  12. yolande on December 22, 2010 at 4:17 pm

    I love the blog! i get sad when I read it and it is over so quick 🙁 i could read it all day , I cannot wait till you have a book someday because I will be the first one to pick one up 🙂 Therefore, I would like the blog to be longer 🙂 perhaps more recipes 🙂



  13. Diane on December 22, 2010 at 4:18 pm

    I would love to continue to see great recipes – I love the ones you share!



  14. Tess on December 22, 2010 at 4:19 pm

    The blog is pretty much perfect as is…but more pictures of Bella couldn’t hurt. 🙂 I’ve got a Bichon and a Maltese, so I’m all about the little white fluffy dogs! Also, for your sake, I hope to see more of the Pilot AT HOME. 🙂 I know you must miss him so much.



  15. Mali on December 22, 2010 at 4:23 pm

    I would love to see some more Latin themed recipes but I love everything else as is! Keep up the great work!!



  16. Julisa on December 22, 2010 at 4:23 pm

    Happy Holidays! The secret to Gina’s macaroons 🙂 would be my wish in 2011



  17. Shayna on December 22, 2010 at 4:24 pm

    I’m already a Facebook fan! Maybe more workouts and playlists! Other than that, don’t change a thing! I love your blog 🙂



  18. Stephanie on December 22, 2010 at 4:29 pm

    Hey Gina! I would love to win those macaroons! But I don’t have too many suggestions for the blog. I read it every day because it is fantastic just the way it is. I guess more recipes couldn’t hurt, though – I’ve made your sweet potato & black bean chili three times this winter. Happy Holidays!



  19. Wendy on December 22, 2010 at 4:34 pm

    I love your blog and look forward to reading daily, so don’t change too much! Playlists are always good and continued workout suggestions, too. And keep the recipes coming! Thanks for all you do.



  20. Kim on December 22, 2010 at 4:35 pm

    I absolutely love your blog, and am having a hard time coming up with ideas of what I’d like to see more of. Maybe some more simple recipes for those of us that are challenged in the kitchen, with limited access to specialty ingredients.



  21. Mary on December 22, 2010 at 4:35 pm

    I absolutely love your blog exactly the way it is. I enjoy the recipes, dinner parties, guest posts from the pilot and all the tips you share and more. Thanks! 🙂



  22. Esther on December 22, 2010 at 4:36 pm

    I love the blog the way it is! More playlists would be a great addition.



  23. Jenn on December 22, 2010 at 4:36 pm

    I would love to see more workout suggestions!



  24. Kimberley on December 22, 2010 at 4:36 pm

    My firm bans its employees from using Facebook — how odd, right? So, let’s see…what do I want to see in 2011? I love the mini workout videos, so more of those would be great. Pretty much just keep doing what you are doing – it works for you. 🙂

    Merry Christmas!



  25. Cara on December 22, 2010 at 4:37 pm

    I would like to see more challenges and more cooking/recipies!



  26. Alyssa on December 22, 2010 at 4:37 pm

    I’d love to see more veggie-based recipes– I’ve been so sad you’ve been without a kitchen the past few months!



  27. kathleen on December 22, 2010 at 4:37 pm

    I would love to see more yoga workouts — it’s hard sometimes (and expensive!) to get to a studio for a class. Thanks Gina!



  28. Jenna on December 22, 2010 at 4:39 pm

    Yayy! I liked the Fitnessista Facebook page ANDDD commented!! ..win/win?!



  29. Beth on December 22, 2010 at 4:44 pm

    More vegan food please!



  30. Linda B on December 22, 2010 at 4:44 pm

    I love your blog just the way it is (but a few more pilot posts would be nice).



  31. BethT on December 22, 2010 at 4:44 pm

    Hm, what to see on the blog in 2011….a Fitnessista baby perhaps? :0 Just kidding. I’d love to see quick workouts that can be done in 30 minutes or less for those of us without a lot of time to pump some iron.



  32. Melissa on December 22, 2010 at 4:45 pm

    <3 the blog the way it is!



  33. Melissa on December 22, 2010 at 4:46 pm

    & just ‘liked’ you on FB!



  34. Lisa on December 22, 2010 at 4:47 pm

    I like your website how it is!



  35. Lauren on December 22, 2010 at 4:48 pm

    I just liked!



  36. Lauren on December 22, 2010 at 4:48 pm

    I would love to see more of your bootcamp workouts.



  37. Zainab on December 22, 2010 at 4:49 pm

    How about a post on how to gain peak fitness or lose those last 10 lbs for someone who is already in moderate to above average shape & already lives a healthy lifestyle?



  38. Neslie on December 22, 2010 at 4:50 pm

    I would love more recipes and simple workout ideas/motivation to help get non-fitnessistas started!



  39. Lita on December 22, 2010 at 4:53 pm

    I would love to see more movie reviews and tv recaps. I know it has nothing to do with health and fitness but it’s just so darn fun.

    P.S. I saw the Black Swan yesterday and I was like whaaat the what and then I ended up having a nightmare.



  40. darien on December 22, 2010 at 4:56 pm

    big fan of seeing your daily eats, keep that up for the new year! I would love seeing shopping lists and meal plans too



  41. Angie (Losing It and Loving It) on December 22, 2010 at 4:57 pm

    Cannot pass up a giveaway for your macaroons. They are pure Heaven! Already am a fan of your Facebook page though. Wouldn’t mind seeing simple veggie recipes with normal ingredients. I like your videos too especially because they aren’t too long.



  42. Nicole on December 22, 2010 at 4:57 pm

    I already “like” fitnessista on facebook… wish I could “love” her 🙂 I would love to see more videos, theyre my fav!!
    xoxo



  43. Michelle on December 22, 2010 at 4:58 pm

    I love your blog! You have such great ideas to keep me motivated. For the upcoming year, I would love to see more “quick” workout ideas for those of us who need to sneak in a workout but don’t have much time. Thanks.



  44. Jena on December 22, 2010 at 4:58 pm

    I would like to see…. hmmm…. more on dealing with the separation of you and pilot, more on life as a military wife with a deployed husband, more of your OWN cooking 🙂



  45. Anna on December 22, 2010 at 5:02 pm

    Am now a fan on your facebook page 🙂



  46. Jordan on December 22, 2010 at 5:03 pm

    Always love to see more raw recipes!



  47. Andrea on December 22, 2010 at 5:04 pm

    I love your blog and would love to see more of the challenges with week long workout routines. I really think it is great that you include the videos for each exercise!!!



  48. Emily on December 22, 2010 at 5:07 pm

    I would love to see more workout routines!



  49. Jul on December 22, 2010 at 5:09 pm

    I’d love to see a ‘day in the life’ post.



  50. Carolyn on December 22, 2010 at 5:12 pm

    I do love seeing your workout videos and correct form for exercise routines!
