SSU 2013 Giveaway: Stitch Fix- ENDED

Thank you so much for the amazing response to the first workout! I’m so happy you’re enjoying it ๐Ÿ™‚ I did workout 1 for the first time a few weeks ago and it killed me in the best way possible. Hope you feel the same way. If you’re just finding out about Summer Shape Up, no worries, it is never too late to sign up! Check out the intro post here, and then leave a comment in any post being sure to click the box to sign up for my newsletter.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

When I first started my weight loss journey, I quickly realized that it was not worth it to spend money on clothes during that time. I’d go buy an outfit for work, and it would be too big before I could wear it. It may seem like a “problem that’s not really a problem,” but clothes can be costly, and it’s a waste if you don’t get to wear them. I halted the clothing purchases since I knew my size would be temporary until I reached a healthier weight. Since then, I’ve always told my training clients to minimize clothing expenses while we’re working together, and instead to use a clothes shopping spree as an awesome reward when they hit their goal.

Many of you will hit new fitness goals with the Summer Shape Up. Even if the scale doesn’t budge -muscle is more dense than fat, so you could technically weigh the same and have a lower body fat percentage- your clothes could fit you differently. Maybe you just hit a fitness goal and want to celebrate, or could use a bit of a closet overhaul.

I’d like to share my Stitch Fix credit with a few lucky winners as the first Shape Up giveaway.

Stitchfix

I have a credit with Stitch Fix from referring people to the brand over the past 6 months or so. At first, I thought it would be cool to get a discount on what I purchase from them since I love my monthly Stitch Fix box, and the credit continued to grow. I was trying to think of a good way to use it and quickly thought of the perfect solution: give back to YOU, since you’re the reason why I have a credit with them in the first place.

I emailed Stitch Fix to see if it would be possible to do a giveaway and they more than happy to help me set it up.

Today’s giveaway is $3500 of Stitch Fix credit: $500 each to seven lucky winners. That’s a lot of new clothes!

    I have recently lost 30 pounds and I would love some new clothes! I discovered your blog a couple of months ago and have been catching up on older posts. Your positive attitude and healthy lifestyle have been an inspiration to me!

  6. Stacey on June 3, 2013 at 6:52 pm

    I would LOVE to win! Today, I just started my first out-of-college, real adult job and need some new clothes. I’m used to the sweatpants and PJs college wardrobe!

  7. Alicia Juillet on June 3, 2013 at 6:56 pm

    I’d love to win this because i need some new real girl clothes. I work at a climbing gym, and spend 95% of my time there, so my wardrobe is really lacking in everything other than stretchy pants and tank tops. Thanks for this giveaway!

  11. lisa on June 3, 2013 at 7:00 pm

    Wow- what a give-a-way! I would love to win. I barely have any clothes to wear in my size and would love to win! The only bad part about losing weight is the cost of replacement items ๐Ÿ™‚

  12. Elena on June 3, 2013 at 7:01 pm

    I would love to win Stitch Fix credit! I have gotten one “fix” thus far, and Ioved how everything was wrapped up so cute and totally personalized! I kept two shirts that I love and have gotten a lot of compliments on them! I am trying to spruce of my wardrobe… Because I have a habit of shipping at the same store… I would love some new fixes ๐Ÿ™‚

  13. Jenny L on June 3, 2013 at 7:05 pm

    I’d love to win some clothes on Stitch Fix as I’m on a shopping rut and could use a stylist!

  14. Kelly on June 3, 2013 at 7:05 pm

    I live in kahkis for work and workout clothes outside of that. I would love something new to wear!!

  22. Christine on June 3, 2013 at 7:18 pm

  23. Nicole on June 3, 2013 at 7:19 pm

    I am a very broke first year teacher who needs new clothes! I have not been able to spend any money on clothes since I started working- all of my funds go to my students/dog/living expenses and there is no wiggle room left for cute clothes! I would love a wardrobe update!

  24. Nicole on June 3, 2013 at 7:20 pm

    Pinned it too!

  25. Kristi on June 3, 2013 at 7:21 pm

    Wow! Just completed the first workout and it was great! I was even able to convince my husband to do it with me:) what a great way to end our day!

  26. Siobhan on June 3, 2013 at 7:23 pm

    Awesome start to the summer shape up!!! The dumbbell swing was my fav; hadn’t done it before and it definitely had me shaking at the end.

    (I also subscribed to your new youtube channel).

  27. Maria@The_Brooklyn_Fig on June 3, 2013 at 7:24 pm

    I’d love to win to help me purchase a new summer wardrobeโ€ฆthe idea of new clothes is a huge motivator to keep up with fitness!

  28. tiffany on June 3, 2013 at 7:25 pm

    i’d like to win because i am a broke med student with a bazillion dollars worth of loans but need some clinic appropriate clothes for third year (which starts in july, eeeep!)

  29. Carsen on June 3, 2013 at 7:27 pm

    OMG. I am so out of shape! Just did the week one workout and modified my cardio with a little SageDanceFitness zumba video ’cause I ran out of time for HIIT. I’ll be feeling it tomorrow!

  30. tiffany on June 3, 2013 at 7:27 pm

  32. Wendy on June 3, 2013 at 7:30 pm

    My wardrobe consists solely of yoga clothes (I’m a teacher) and old yoga clothes not fit for public viewing. With a pair or two of jeans and shorts. I need some grownup clothes:)

  33. Missy on June 3, 2013 at 7:31 pm

    My response to workout 1: I woke up this morning not wanting to exercise, but I did workout 1 anyway and felt great afterward (like I knew I would).

  34. Abby on June 3, 2013 at 7:32 pm

    Did workout 1 this morning and wow! I workout all the time but always need to focus in on more strengthening and toning. This definitely fit the bill! It’s nice to have a relatively quick and challenging set to go through.

  35. Wendy on June 3, 2013 at 7:33 pm
  36. Jenn on June 3, 2013 at 7:36 pm

    I want to win because this is the first time I ever heard of Stich Fix and it looks AMAZING!! Also I just subscribed to the summer shape up five minutes ago – so I will let you know what I think after I do it:)

  37. ashley on June 3, 2013 at 7:37 pm

    I have lost weight and NEED new work clothes!! Mine look so ridiculous!

  38. jodi on June 3, 2013 at 7:38 pm

    just finished workout 1 and…. wow…. I am sweaty! that was so great! now onto the clean eats for dinner ๐Ÿ™‚

  39. Sarah on June 3, 2013 at 7:40 pm

    I did the workout this morning and felt great!

  40. Katie on June 3, 2013 at 7:41 pm

    Just finished the work-out & hiit cardio. Sweating bullets. Very challenging, but do-able. The banana exercise was different..kinda awkward, but overall it was a good work-out!

  41. Erin on June 3, 2013 at 7:43 pm

    woo baby! hiit and wo1 complete. thanks, gina!

  42. Krista on June 3, 2013 at 7:46 pm

    Hi Gina! I’ve actually been reading your blog for a couple of years and have never posted a comment. I am currently a nursing student here in Tucson, Az and would love to win the Stitch Fix due to the fact that it is something that I probably will not be able to afford on my own!! Thank you for this opportunity!

  43. bobbileigh on June 3, 2013 at 7:47 pm

    Subscribed and pinned.

    I could really use this to spruce up my wardrobe. I have recently lost 30 lbs and am really starting to get limited on what currently fits. It would be awesome to not only to get some new items, but have some new things I might not normally try sent to me.

  44. Tara on June 3, 2013 at 7:48 pm

    Switch today and tomorrow around since I finished work late tonight. ๐Ÿ™ But that’s ok, 30 minutes of cardio is where I am at today!

  45. Betsy on June 3, 2013 at 7:48 pm

    Loved the first workout! Having a plan is going to be key for me and I love being able to do the workouts at home. Thanks, Gina!

  46. Carrie on June 3, 2013 at 7:49 pm

    What a great idea! I tend to shop at the same stores and could really use an infusion of creativity and fun into my wardrobe. StitchFix would be the perfect solution.

  47. kourtney on June 3, 2013 at 7:51 pm

    pre-baby clothes sometimes just don’t fit a post-baby body the same . . . i could really use some new ones!

  48. Trisha on June 3, 2013 at 7:51 pm

    It is summer, and that means new clothes are always welcome! I’m ready to get my summer shape up on!

  49. Trisha on June 3, 2013 at 7:52 pm

  50. Olivia on June 3, 2013 at 7:52 pm

    As I am approaching my junior year of college, I could use some more “grown up clothes” in my wardrobe!
