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.
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!

Awesome first workout today!!
I subscribed to your YouTube channel! 🙂
Did workout 1 tonight. As I headed to the treadmill for the HIIT, I warned my husband that if I cried for help, it would be because my butt or legs fell off. Be prepared to reattach!
After kicking up my workouts since January, none of my dress pants fit. Send help/StitchFix!!
Subscribed to your new YouTube channel!
oh gosh, id love to win it because im only 8 pounds away from goal weight and want to reward myself after it’s all donee!
subscribed to youtoube!
i also pinned!
I often stare into my closet and scratch my head with no clue on what to put together that would look good on me! I think Stitch Fix would help minimize some of the frustrations I have with putting outfits together and I’d love to try them out!
I would love to win this because my wardrobe is seriously outdated. The last two years have produced two kids, so I’ve always either been pregnant or trying to get rid of the baby weight. I’m almost there and with the shape-up hopefully I can get back to my regular size. And then get some new clothes.
First workout was killer but I loved it!
The first workout looked relatively easy on paper, but it turned out to be quite challenging! 😀
I would love to win this because I just started a new job in a new city and want to look fabulous!

I’ve recently lost a ton of body fat, (mostly thanks to you!:) which I love, but now my clothes feel HUGE. I seriously need new clothes, but I keep convincing myself that it’s more important to put my money towards school. Having this Stitch Fix credit would be great!
I have poor fashion sense and would love to see what they pick out for me! Workout 1 was killer. ESPECIALLY those bananas. Oy vey!
Loved the first workout of the SSU! Great way to spice up my routine. 🙂 I’ve lost 70 lbs so my wardrobe could use a major overhaul!

I have too many pre-pregnancy clothes that I can no longer fit into, plus they are a little juvenile! I need this stitch fix!!!
I recently lost 25 lbs over the last 5 months and know all about the pleasant struggles of clothes not fitting and buying new! I can put the credit to good use! The summer shape up is perfect for my current goal to shape up! Thanks for the shape up and offer! 🙂
Hi Gina,
Loved (and hated in a great way) Week 1’s workout!!! I already know that I will feel it tomorrow. I had a drastic weight loss 9 years ago and I am always looking for new challenges to help maintain all the hard work I’ve put in. I did winter shape up which was great so I had to do SSU. Thanks for taking the time to make this program. And I had no idea you had a new YouTube channel; I love dancing. I’m definitely subscribing 🙂
I heart stichfix, but can’t afford to support the habit. I’d love to win so I can try box!
I switched up things and did steady state today, summer shape up is the motivation I needed to get back to the gym after a loooong break. I tried Stitchfix after reading your blog post and I’m hooked! Anxiously awaiting my 3rd fix 🙂
I can’t get the link to the dance channel to work. Anyone else?
Rocked workout 1 at the gym today. I’m sure I looked like a total noob trying to figure it all out (especially banana-ing), but I just don’t care. I love a new workout and this one was so much fun.
Pinned the intro page too (http://pinterest.com/pin/250372060506801798/)!
The first workout was harder than I expected (in a good way!), especially the banana haha but I can’t wait to do it again! Thanks Gina!
Thanks Gina for including us in the wonderful giveaway! Love, love, love the new work-out! Always nice to have inspriration from you. I love your fashion sense and would be thrilled to win some awesome new pieces.
I signed up for Stitch Fix after reading about it on your site, and I’m totally addicted! I could definitely put the credit to good use! Your blog is a lot of fun; thanks for keeping it interesting : )
Pinned it and subscribed to the YouTube channel, too!
Stitch Fix has always intrigued me! So many cute things.
I did Workout 1 today at 6am before I had to leave for a week of work out of town. I’ll be continuing these workouts at the hotel!
I need less casual and more work appropriate clothes but trying to not take out any loans for grad school, so haven’t been able to justify buying new clothes recently.
Just finished workout 1! Sweaty mess for sure! I really like some of the things you have received from stitch fix. I would love to see what they would send to me! 🙂
I did a modified workout 1, ran my first marathon Saturday so am taking it a little easier. This would be an awesome reward!
I would love so much to win stitch fix credit because all of the outfits you post from it are adorable!
I need this service! I am 5’10” and have the hardest time finding clothes that flatter my figure without looking too small!
I could really use some more professional clothes for interviewing, but I’m very reluctant to spend that kind of money before I have the job!
I keep trying to get hooked up with Stitchfix and I’m wait listed!!!! So excited for your giveaway!
Hi Gina!
I am a full time elementary teacher, part time grad student, and I am always busy! I loved your workout because it was so effective, but it didn’t take very long! I love maximizing my workout time with an efficient, fun routine like that.
I would LOVE to win the SF because as previously mentioned: I am always busy and I never have time to shop for clothes. I would love some cute new clothes to show off all my hard work this summer!
Can’t wait for more of the summer shape up!
-Rebecca
Oh my gosh! First workout was a killer.. and I am in dire need of new clothes I would be so grateful if I won!!
I’ve lost about 30 out of the 40 pounds I gained while pregnant so I’d love to celebrate and motivate myself to finish the weight loss with some new clothing!
Would LOVE a stitch fix gift card. I lost a lot of weight after having my daughter last September and now all my pre pregnant clothes no longer fit. A silly problem to have, I know
I would love to try Stitchfix out!
After a 12 hour work day, I got my butt to the gym and busted out Day 1 Shape Up! As exhausted as I was, I was SO happy to have completed it. The whole time, I was thinking how much more I enjoyed this first workout since most of them were new moves. I’m lookin’ forward to doing it again!
Offering your stitch fix credit to others is so incredibly kind and generous of you – I can’t get over it!! I started using stitch fix after I saw it on your blog and have not had a bad fix yet. I usually keep 2 of the items to stay within my budget. I absolutely love the company and I think it is helping me to define my own personal style. I am starting medical school in the fall (gonna be up to my eyeballs in debt, not too mention busy busy busy) and would LOVE to have some money to put towards professional and fashionable fixes!
Thank you again!
Kelly
PS- Loved workout 1 of SSU. Definitely a good kind of pain 🙂
Hi Gina,
I found your blog this past Spring when I decided I needed some motivation & instruction about working out & healthy eating. Since reading your blog & following your workouts (including the SSU) & recipes I have lost 10lbs! I’m getting married 6/22/13 & would love some new clothes for my honeymoon in August! I look forward to your inspiring posts everyday!!!! 🙂
Amazing giveaway! I have gained about 30 lbs in the past two years and have a closet full of beautiful clothes that don’t fit. Picking out an outfit each day is a challenge, but it is hard for me to spend money on new clothes. It feels very counterintuitive to my goal to lose the excess pounds. Winning a stitch fix coupon would help me look great and feel confident in the interim.
Hi Gina!
I loved workout 1 today! I did half before and half after my spin class– my thighs were feeling it! I would LOVE to win the StitchFix because I need some fun summer clothes; I just donated a bunch!
I also pinned the intro post: http://pinterest.com/pin/145804106659045892/

I’d love to win because after recently getting married I’ve learned to budget more wisely and not spend extra on clothes, so this would be a fun shopping spree!
I worked out hard tonight thanks to the Summer Shape Up! Now I’m about to reward myself with 2 amazeballs. 🙂
