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.

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 would LOVE a wardrobe update. I’m a teacher and spend a LOT of my extra money on my classroom…it’s starting to show! I need to update my wardrobe. Plus, I love the idea of someone else picking out perfect pieces for me!

  2. Andrea on June 3, 2013 at 7:57 pm

    I just completed the first workout in the Summer Shape Up series and loved it! Thank you so much!

  3. sarah b. on June 3, 2013 at 7:59 pm

    I loved the first work out – I always look forward to the shape-ups and have done the last three with my mom. We got up early this morning before my kiddos woke up to kick off day one. Had a great playlist and got sweaty ๐Ÿ™‚

    Also, subscribed to your new youtube channel – can’t wait to check it out.

    Thanks so much ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. Jess on June 3, 2013 at 8:00 pm

    I would love to step out of my fashion comfort zone!

  5. Carrie on June 3, 2013 at 8:01 pm

    Workout 1 was great!! I have been getting really bored with my workouts so this was a great way to shake things up! Loved it!!
    P.S. I am going to start student teaching soon and am in desperate need of some new non-work out clothes ๐Ÿ™‚

  6. lindsay on June 3, 2013 at 8:02 pm

    i’m 30 and still have some clothes from high school in my closet. the 90’s were pretty rad but…time for a change??

  7. Katie on June 3, 2013 at 8:03 pm

    How generous of you and stitch fix! I would love to try out stitch fix! It’s been so long since I’ve gotten some cute new outfits. I’d love some new summer clothes ๐Ÿ™‚

  8. Maureen on June 3, 2013 at 8:03 pm

    Just finished the workout – Awesome. It was a good one. My arms are a little shaky.

  9. mi-an dela cruz on June 3, 2013 at 8:04 pm

    Just did the work out this evening!! it was awesome! I would so love to win this because I lost 15 lbs in the past 6 months, and I start my residency training in 1 month for my medical training therefore it would be sooo freakin awesome to have new wardrobe!! ๐Ÿ™‚ also, pinned this!

  10. Brittney on June 3, 2013 at 8:05 pm

    I finished workout 1 an hour ago and it was a tough one! I modified to my level but still worked up an awesome sweat and got a great burn!

    I also would say I want to win because I struggle with trying new things in my wardrobe so I wear a lot of basic t’s and jeans. I want some fun new tops or outfits to really change it up!

  11. mi-an dela cruz on June 3, 2013 at 8:05 pm

    Also subscribed to your youtube dance channel!! ๐Ÿ™‚

  12. Pamela on June 3, 2013 at 8:09 pm

    I’m a HUGE fan of Stitchfix and would love more fixes!

  13. Shaina Anderson on June 3, 2013 at 8:10 pm

    Wow Gina! You continually amaze me with the things you do for your readers!

    I am finally at a place where I am LOVING my post-baby body. I’m 4.5 lbs below my prepregnancy weight and much more toned than I was two years ago (Tripp turned 1 ten days ago!). SSU can only help right?! Loved the first day! My HIIT was stair intervals (resting was crunches and flutter kicks) while I waited for Tripp to finish his nap.

    I already subscribe to your youtube dance channel and I’m pinning right now! 3 of my friends signed up yesterday so we have a little cross-country virtual workout group going on in our corner. ๐Ÿ™‚

  14. Kat on June 3, 2013 at 8:12 pm

    Yay! I loved your SF outfits but was quickly saddened to learn that they don’t ship to Canada. #canadianproblems So, i’m hoping this entry is valid?

    I also subscribed to your youtube channel.

    Thanks for hosting this! It is very sweet of you!

  15. Lauren @ Sassy Molassy on June 3, 2013 at 8:12 pm

    I would love to win a Stitch Fix credit because I tend to play it really safe in my shopping even though I WANT to branch out. Plus, little ole Eugene doesn’t have a ton to offer in the way of clothes shopping. It’s been so fun to see the outfits you’ve put together from your fixes! Thanks for sharing the love. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  16. Kim on June 3, 2013 at 8:12 pm

    I would love some new threads…. I’ve been working from home and have transitioned back into a job in resorts and hospitality… where you have to look your best. This would be such a blessing. Even if I don’t win, thanks for thinking of your loyal followers.

    Early doctors appt made me skip the gym – however I have my alarm set to tackles Monday workout on Tuesday.

  17. Nicole on June 3, 2013 at 8:13 pm

    Did workout 1. I loved how I didn’t get bored with it, I get bored quick! The banana thing at then end was awkward, and confusing but something new ๐Ÿ™‚ Thanks again Gina!!

  18. Natasha on June 3, 2013 at 8:13 pm

    Just finished the workout and hiit… Will I ever be able to do hiit without dying??? Least I finished ๐Ÿ™‚

  19. Emily on June 3, 2013 at 8:15 pm

    Would love to win this prize! Everything you’ve shown from them is adorable. I’m at that place where my real life closet needs to look a little more similar to my Pinterest closet ๐Ÿ˜‰

  20. Angel on June 3, 2013 at 8:15 pm

    I could definitely use some new cute items! Stitch Fix sounds like fun.

  21. Kim on June 3, 2013 at 8:16 pm
  22. Brittney on June 3, 2013 at 8:17 pm

    I pinned the intro post!

  23. Morgan on June 3, 2013 at 8:17 pm

    Loved the first workout! Was just what I needed to shake up a stagnant workout routine, keep them coming! I would love to win a new wardrobe would be a great way for me to celebrate a jump stat and great motivation to continue.

  24. Whitney on June 3, 2013 at 8:17 pm

    I would LOVE to win stitch fix because: #1 My two little ones always end up with all the new clothes haha! #2 I still have clothes from high school ( I’m 28). Thanks for reading this!

  25. Jenny Varghese on June 3, 2013 at 8:18 pm

    Loved the first workout! The squat, squat jumps really got the heartrate up! Thanks for a wonderful program!

  26. catherine on June 3, 2013 at 8:21 pm

    I enjoyed workout 1, I was a sweaty mess! I bailed on the banana thing at the end because it felt really awkward to me. This is such a motivated way for me to get back into a set exercise schedule, I’m pumped for the next few weeks!

  27. Shira M. on June 3, 2013 at 8:22 pm

    The first workout was tough, yet manageable enough to not scare me away! I was seriously sweating which always feels great!

  28. Bailey on June 3, 2013 at 8:23 pm

    The shape up series always seem to make their appearance when I’m reaching my workout rut! I still use some of the workouts from 2010 ๐Ÿ™‚

  29. Megan on June 3, 2013 at 8:24 pm

    I loved the first workout! I was a sweaty beast when I left the gym. I especially loved the banana, definitely a first for me. It’s very generous of you to share your stitch fit credit with all of us!

    I also pinned and subscribed!

  30. Juliet on June 3, 2013 at 8:26 pm

    I loved the first workout! It felt great (and sore!) to change up my usual routine. Looking forward to the next workout!

  31. Gina on June 3, 2013 at 8:27 pm

    At almost five months post-baby my wardrobe really needs some help! I’d love to give this a shot.

  32. Amanda Szaraz on June 3, 2013 at 8:27 pm

    First workout was great! Nice and sweaty? Burns so good!

  33. Sammi on June 3, 2013 at 8:29 pm

    I want to join please!

  34. Abby on June 3, 2013 at 8:29 pm

    I sent my mom a stichfix for her birthday but have never purchased one for myself! Dying to try it out.

  35. Tammy on June 3, 2013 at 8:30 pm

    Just finished workout 1 and I am totally worn out. Thanks for a great workout plan!

  36. christin on June 3, 2013 at 8:30 pm

    I need some good casual clothes! All I have are work clothes and hate spending money on casual clothes that don’t get worn that often. I’ve also been wanting to try Stitch Fix for a while. Hope I win ๐Ÿ™‚

  37. Jaime on June 3, 2013 at 8:31 pm

    Workout 1 was awesome!! I haven’t taken my “before” pics yet, but I better get on that- I feel new muscles starting to pop up already ๐Ÿ™‚

  38. Zoe on June 3, 2013 at 8:31 pm

    I am desperately trying to save money and desperate for some new clothes to kick off the summer with! I am also excited to start Summer Shape Up and get toned up for the summer.

  39. dominique on June 3, 2013 at 8:32 pm

    i want to win because i am desperately in need of new clothes but between graduate school and a new baby, I have neither the time nor the money to invest in new clothes.

  40. Lisa on June 3, 2013 at 8:32 pm

    I loved the first workout! Can’t wait and am impatient to see results!

  41. kirsten on June 3, 2013 at 8:35 pm

    I would love to win, I am in desperate need of new work clothes!

  42. Daisy on June 3, 2013 at 8:37 pm

    It’s great that you’re doing this! I’ve been wanting to try out stitchfix but the price held me back.

  43. Jenn on June 3, 2013 at 8:38 pm

    I would love to have new school clothes!

  44. Lindsey F. on June 3, 2013 at 8:38 pm

    I have gained about 20 pounds (most of which were necessary as I am a recovering anorexic). I desperately need some new clothes to go along with my new body

  45. Margaret on June 3, 2013 at 8:40 pm

    Holy moly that workout was a tough one! In P90X we do the Superman/banana combo too – Tony Horton yells out “SUPERMAN! BANANA!!!” forever…it was in my head during the workout! So fun though, loved the workout, Gina!

  46. Steph on June 3, 2013 at 8:43 pm

    I want to have a new wardrobe for summer

  47. Shayna on June 3, 2013 at 8:43 pm

    I did the first workout yesterday and just got back from a run. My legs are definitely feeling it! I really liked the workout yesterday – quick and highly effective. You do such a great job with these shape-ups, it gives me that extra motivation to get up early and start my day with a great workout. Thank you!

  48. Kristen on June 3, 2013 at 8:44 pm

    I had a baby in November and am enjoying getting back into shape. I am desperately in need of new clothes! I’m back to my pre-baby weight but wow do things fit differently now!

  49. Ashley W on June 3, 2013 at 8:44 pm

    I need this because I desperately need girly clothes. My closet is full of t-shirts and it is sad. I need to revamp my style but don’t have the income right now to do so.

  50. Sara on June 3, 2013 at 8:44 pm

    Amazing give away! I would LOVE to win this since sometimes I don’t ‘think outside the box’ with what I wear, I would love for a “personal shopper” to make choices and suggestions for me and to be surprised each ‘fix’!!
