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. The password for the first week’s workout and meal ideas will be emailed to you automatically after you sign up. ๐Ÿ™‚

_____________________________________________________________________________________

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 need new clothes, because I recently lost 35 pounds and nothing fits!

  2. Lauren on June 3, 2013 at 9:40 pm

    I’m about to graduate, and I would love some new clothes for my foray into the professional world! Plus, clothes are such an expression of how you present yourself to the world, and I would like to present myself well ๐Ÿ™‚

  3. Kelly on June 3, 2013 at 9:41 pm

    Also, I pinned and subscribed :). Even considering making a youtube video just because I’m so excited about this give away! I would need to shower though since I am schweeatty from workout 1 ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. Colleen on June 3, 2013 at 9:42 pm

    After weeding out clothes from college and pre pregnancy, I discovered I have very few flattering and age-appropriate-yet-fun outfits. I have limited time and even more limited style, so I would love to win a Stitch Fix credit!

  5. Sara on June 3, 2013 at 9:43 pm

    What an amazing giveaway! I desperately need clothes now that I’ve lost my baby weight. I don’t have any summer clothes that fit me anymore. What a kind thing for you to do, thank you for the opportunity:)

  6. Alycia on June 3, 2013 at 9:43 pm

    The first workout had me crying for my mommy! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Awesome giveaway! I am in desparate need of some things for work. Office life is dull so it would be great to spice it up with a few new outfits!

  7. Jessica on June 3, 2013 at 9:46 pm

    Finished workout 1! My legs are officially jelly. Loving it though!

  8. Elizabeth M. on June 3, 2013 at 9:48 pm

    There are a few things on my “if I made more money I would…” List and this is one the top! I love shopping and fashion but I get so overwhelmed and frustrated at stores. I would love if I had some help!

  9. Karen on June 3, 2013 at 9:51 pm

    Workout number one had by thighs burning! loved it! Also pinned Summer Shape Up and subscribed to your channel!

  10. Melanie on June 3, 2013 at 9:52 pm

    I’ve been wanting to try Stitch Fix for a while but it doesn’t quite fit in my budget at the moment, so I would love to be able to try it out!!

  11. Rachel on June 3, 2013 at 9:53 pm

    The first workout was killer. I’m going to be so sore!

    I’d love to win the giveaway. The clothes you’ve posted are so cute!

  12. Katie @ Pop Culture Cuisine on June 3, 2013 at 9:53 pm

    I am pregnant with twins and due in October…I would love to win this because I am going to be in serious need of some cute new “mommy” clothes and going to have literally no time to shop!

  13. Siobhan on June 3, 2013 at 9:54 pm

    (I just pinned the intro post!)

  14. Melissa Pang on June 3, 2013 at 9:55 pm

    This is an awesome giveaway!! I have not been doing SSU but love the workout ideas and meal plans… I like the idea of getting clothes in the mail already picked out just for me!!

  15. Sunny on June 3, 2013 at 9:56 pm

    Definitely loved workout 1, felt it in my leggies – gooood sore, though! This is the time of year I always like to switch things up, so this was a great routine. And stitchfix – I wish!! …. <3

  16. Betsy on June 3, 2013 at 9:57 pm

    I’ve heard about Stitch Fix from a few friends and have been wanting to try it out to branch out with my wardrobe. Thanks for the giveaway!

  17. Hannah on June 3, 2013 at 9:58 pm

    I need new clothes since I have been on a teachers budget and need something to wear (hopefully) to a new job!

  18. Erin L. on June 3, 2013 at 9:59 pm

    I went to the park with my dogs for a warmup and then went to the gym for some cardio.

  19. Danica on June 3, 2013 at 10:00 pm

    I think the Stitch Fix idea is amazing and they have the cutest outfits!! Thanks for this great giveaway!

  20. Andrea on June 3, 2013 at 10:01 pm

    Workout #1 was a great way to change up my routine! Looking forward to doing it again on Wednesday. Thank you Gina for all that you do!!

  21. Jen on June 3, 2013 at 10:04 pm

    I love new clothes … but I hate shopping and trying things on. Stitch Fix sounds magical to me.

  22. Lisa on June 3, 2013 at 10:07 pm

    I would love to win this prize because I am a graduate student with a nonexistent budget for clothing and since I began grad school I’ve lost nearly 30 pounds, making many of my clothes unsuitable and ill-fitted. Plus, their clothes are adorable!

  23. Vera on June 3, 2013 at 10:07 pm

    I just did workout 1….wow….it was awesome. And very sweaty.

  24. Rebekah on June 3, 2013 at 10:07 pm

    Workout 1 kicked my butt!! The superset of squats and squat jumps left my legs feeling like jelly!!

  25. Michelle O on June 3, 2013 at 10:07 pm

    Did workout 1 first thing this morning and loved it! Already feeling it!

    I am also a grad student so I can rarely spend money on new clothes and don’t have much time to go shopping. Your outfits are always so cute, would love to try Stitch Fix!

  26. Kelli C on June 3, 2013 at 10:08 pm

    I pinned it!!

  27. Tory on June 3, 2013 at 10:08 pm

    Even though I had a longer day of work than originally planned, I still managed to complete today’s workout. At first I just wanted to leave the gym, but I’m so glad I stayed and finished the workout. It was definitely what I needed!

    I need new clothes like right now ๐Ÿ™‚

  30. Lillian on June 3, 2013 at 10:09 pm

    I want to win because I can NEVER buy clothes for myself! I always see such fabulous outfits on other women, and can never figure out what to get for my own closet. StitchFix sounds perfect!

  31. Kristi @ Sweetly Fit on June 3, 2013 at 10:11 pm

    Stitch Fix looks like some awesome clothes! I could definitely use some because being a broke college kid ain’t easy. ๐Ÿ˜‰

  32. Diana on June 3, 2013 at 10:11 pm

    I’d love to get some new clothes to spice up my wardrobe!

    And I also did my summer shape up for today… it was sweaty!!

  33. Kristi @ Sweetly Fit on June 3, 2013 at 10:11 pm

    I subscribed to your youtube page, so excited to start watching!!

  34. Kaitlin on June 3, 2013 at 10:12 pm

    I would love to win the stitch fix contest because I am always trying to mix up my outfits. Having someone else pick your clothes is the perfect way to do that!

  35. Diana on June 3, 2013 at 10:12 pm

    I subscribed to your new youtube channel. Can’t wait to try out a dance soon!

  36. Elise on June 3, 2013 at 10:13 pm

    I’m in med school so not a big budget for clothes, but I’ll be starting in the hospital, and needing to wear professional clothes in June so this would be super helpful!

  37. Jackie on June 3, 2013 at 10:13 pm

    I’m in desperate need of some new
    Pretty clothes!

  38. Eva on June 3, 2013 at 10:14 pm

    I would love some new clothes- it is so hard finding professional clothes that don’t make me look frumpy.

  39. Annie V on June 3, 2013 at 10:15 pm

    Just finished Workout 1. Have never felt so inelegant as when doing the banana. ๐Ÿ™‚ Definitely out of my comfort zone but it made me laugh.

  40. Hannah on June 3, 2013 at 10:15 pm

    I would like to win because i’m going to university in the fall and don’t have a lot of spare money to spend on clothes, and I’m doing SSU, but I switched some days and did steady state cardio today ๐Ÿ™‚

  41. Krista on June 3, 2013 at 10:17 pm

    Would love a stich fix credit! Saving for a wedding makes it hard to continue my obsession with new clothing ๐Ÿ™‚

  42. Jessica on June 3, 2013 at 10:21 pm

    The link to my video entry (only slightly embarrassing)! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ol5gtqklSs

    • Fitnessista on June 3, 2013 at 10:23 pm

      it says it’s private! i can’t wait to see it

      • Jessica on June 4, 2013 at 9:24 am

        Whoops, sorry about that! Clearly not a YouTube pro – made it public. Thanks! ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Marci on June 6, 2013 at 12:07 pm

      OMG! After posting my (terrible and embarrassing) video, I came back into the comments to see what others have done – your video is way cute and i love the “amaze balls” at the end ๐Ÿ™‚

  43. Rachel S on June 3, 2013 at 10:21 pm

    This stitch fix giveaway couldn’t come at a better time! I just started a new job and would love to re-vamp some of my work clothes! I don’t really have it in my budget to do that at the moment so this would give me the opportunity to do so! I always love the posts about what you’ve received in your box!

  44. Ruthie on June 3, 2013 at 10:26 pm

    Wow, awesome giveaway idea!!

    1) SSU Day 1 workout (spin bike for the HIIT part) & eats complete! Feel fantastic after a great day of clean fuel & the endorphin spike of your excellent workout. Nervous I’d struggle — as my workouts of late haven’t been as intense or consistent — but managed to survive every love to hate minute of it!

    3) Done!

    4) Subscribed as soon as I found out about the new channel!

  45. Sarah on June 3, 2013 at 10:26 pm

    I would love to be signed up for your Summer Shapeup! Thank you!

    Pinned it and shared on Facebook! ๐Ÿ™‚

  49. Laurie on June 3, 2013 at 10:31 pm

    Would love to win stitch fix! Working full time with three toddlers, I need to outsource clothes shopping!

  50. Kristi on June 3, 2013 at 10:33 pm
