SSU 2013 Giveaway: Stitch Fix- ENDED

June 2, 2013 |

Thank you so much for the amazing response to the first workout! I’m so happy you’re enjoying it 🙂 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. 🙂

_____________________________________________________________________________________

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 to win because I have recently lost about 15 pounds and I need some new fun clothes! I have bought new items for work (unavoidable) but I’ve had a harder time justifying fun clothes purchases. I would LOVE to win a credit to help me revamp my closet!

    Ok, I just uploaded my video. I was super nervous because I felt like I was actually talking to you! And when I say “school” I mean I am going back to work as a teacher, not a student. See? Nervous!

      I forgot to tell you about me. I am a mom of four, a runner, volunteer and wannabe triathlete. I never wear real clothes. If I do try, I have no clue how to accessorize. Also, I am constantly embarrassing my middle schoolers by wearing bike shorts and race tees to school functions! Please help!

    So I can’t find my original comment so I’m commenting again with my video link! http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=PHperlAdsHQ. Something that I didn’t put in the video is I have recently lost 30lbs and most of my clothes are too big for me but since I need to save up money for college, I haven’t really been able to buy myself new clothes.

    All through school I wore a uniform, so I didn’t really get to develop much of a sense of style. Then I went to college and wore jeans and sweatshirts for 4 years, so I didn’t exactly hone that nonexistent sense of style. And now I wear black pants and sweater sets to work all the time, and I’d love to get some cute office clothes!!

    Id love to win because I just had a baby 3 months ago and am out of pregnancy clothes but end up wearing the same black skirt and tops I did pre pregnancy- I am ready to get a little pizzaz back in my wardrobe and have my little girl proud of her mama in our pictures.

    Side note: I had my husband film the nerdy video for me and when I explained what it was for his response was “so it’s worth trading in your dignity for new clothes?” Uh…. YES. 🙂
