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 🙂 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 want to win so I can give Stitch Fix a try! I love seeing the new clothes everyone keeps featuring on their blog. The clothes each person gets really seems to fit their style so I’m really curious to see how well they could match my style. 🙂

  2. Kate on June 3, 2013 at 11:46 am

    OH I think that this is such a fun giveaway! I usually shop online, and without the input from others…so to have someone help style me based on my general style would be so fun!

  3. Amanda Lee on June 3, 2013 at 11:48 am

    After seeing all your cute clothes, then looking in the comments to have you answer ‘StitchFix!’ is enough to make me want to join. I haven’t yet, but this would be the perfect opportunity to try it out!

    Also, I’m 5’10, so the fact that you give your sizes to the company and they match what’ll fit you seems especially awesome. 🙂

  4. Megan on June 3, 2013 at 11:50 am

    As a busy mama of 2 I really need to break my sweatpants habit. This mama is in a sad safe rut. Style me up PLEASE!!!

  5. Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries on June 3, 2013 at 11:51 am

    I would love to win to help me out as I update my wardrobe for summer!

  6. Kristen DD on June 3, 2013 at 11:52 am

    This is an amazing giveaway! I’m recently engaged and would LOVE a way to revamp my fashion wardrobe and impress my amazing fiance!

  7. Katie O on June 3, 2013 at 11:52 am

    I would love a stitch fix! I had my baby boy in May of last year and while I’m pretty much back to my our pregnancy weight, my body shape is different and my (already outdated) closet is full of clothes that don’t fit quite right and are definitely a flashback to my high school days in the early 2000s!

  8. Sarah @ MarvelousDarling on June 3, 2013 at 11:53 am

    Wow, this is an awesome giveaway!

    I’m about to be hitting some crazy life changes, and new business-casual clothes are going to be a necessity. In a couple of months, I’ll be moving to Kiel, Germany, with my boyfriend. Because I won’t be able to take very much with me, I want the clothes I do take to prepare me for a successful job hunt when I get over there! (I’m planning to apply to teach English to adults, or possibly freelance.)

    In a few minutes, I’ll be doing Workout 1!

  9. Jess on June 3, 2013 at 11:54 am

    I am 5.5 months post baby and just finished breastfeeding. I”m ready to get back into an exercise routine. I’m hoping the summer shape-up will be the kick-start I need! Thanks!!

  10. Emily on June 3, 2013 at 11:54 am

    I’m an AmeriCorps member so between a tight budget and fulfilling 1700 hours of service over the course of 10 months, my wardrobe hasn’t been refreshed in quite some time! I could use a little help! Loving workout #1, by the way!

  11. Tricia on June 3, 2013 at 11:54 am

    I would love to win this giveaway to finally give my closet a much needed revamp. I am finally getting close to fitting back in my pre-baby size (15months later) and could use a clothestastic celebration 🙂

  12. Annie V on June 3, 2013 at 11:55 am

    I’m so intrigued by StitchFix but haven’t bitten the bullet yet!
    I subscribe to your new dance channel, do I need to put in a separate comment for that?

  13. Madeline on June 3, 2013 at 11:55 am

    I would love to win! I’m a college student at a rural Midwest school, so I rarely have time, money or opportunity to shop. What a sweet giveaway!!

  14. Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries on June 3, 2013 at 11:55 am

    I pinned it!

  15. Becca on June 3, 2013 at 11:55 am

    I first tried Stitch Fix because of your posts about it! I haven’t been able to get a second order because I’ve been out of the country, but I would love to try it again as soon as I’m back! I really liked what they gave me the first time around.

    I also pinned your Intro post (under Rebs L).

    I haven’t tried the first workout yet since today is my active recovery after yesterday’s long run, but I hope to do it tomorrow!

  16. Jenny on June 3, 2013 at 11:56 am

    I have been wanting to try out stitchfix but haven’t been able to bring myself to pay for it. this would be a great way to try it out! thanks!

    • Jenny on June 3, 2013 at 12:00 pm

      I also pinned the intro post to pinterest and followed the youtube channel! I wasnt sure if we needed separate comments for each option.

  17. Meredith T. on June 3, 2013 at 11:57 am

    Such a fun giveaway! I would like to win because I almost justified wearing a maternity wrap-dress to work today….my son turns 1 tomorrow hahah!

  18. Hilary on June 3, 2013 at 11:58 am

    Love stitch fix!!! Love that the clothes are usually unique and picked for me. Awesome idea and awesome you are sharing your credits. Finished the workout 1 and 20min HIIT this morning and it was a sweaty one!

  19. Tanya on June 3, 2013 at 11:58 am

    What an amazing giveaway! I would love to win, because I recently lost 50lbs and ended up donating 90% of my clothes. I’ve literally been living in leggings and t-shirts lol..now I definitely need to revamp my wardrobe, especially since I just graduated and am looking for a new job! I love your Stitch Fix outfits- so cute and classy!

  20. Melissa D on June 3, 2013 at 11:59 am

    I’d love to win this. I have 2 kids under 2 and haven’t done much shopping since getting pregnant with my first. I’m in need of a wardrobe revamp.

  21. Anna on June 3, 2013 at 12:00 pm

    I need some new clothes for the summer! We’ve been having some very hot weather in the mid-Atlantic region, and I’d love to add some new pieces to my summer ensemble to make it fun again!

  22. Laura on June 3, 2013 at 12:00 pm

    Wow Gina – what a kind thing to share your credit!!!! I have had some body struggles the past year while TTC and it’s been quite rough at times. I had held off on buying new clothes for so long hoping that I’d be buying maternity clothes sometime soon. I’d love to spruce up my wardrobe at whatever size I am now 🙂

  23. Liz on June 3, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    I love stitch fix, but have only been able to do two fixes. It’s perfect for people who are too busy to shop but love fashion. Thanks for the giveaway!

  24. liz on June 3, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    Would love to win, they have awesome stuff!

  25. Lauren on June 3, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    I would love to win this. I am currently 40 weeks pregnant and will definitely needs some cute new stylish clothes!

  26. Corie on June 3, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    I love seeing your stitch fix posts! I haven’t tried workout 1 yet but will be trying later this evening after work – I can’t wait!

  27. Maggie on June 3, 2013 at 12:01 pm

    This post really speaks to me since I just lost a boatload of weight and am still losing more. I’m really happy about my progress but getting dressed every morning is a HUGE bummer. I feel confident about my body but not when I’m basically swimming in my old clothes.

    I want to win because I really really need things that fit me!

  28. Amy on June 3, 2013 at 12:02 pm

    Workout #1 was great, even with some 6 months preggo modifications. Thank you, as always! p.s. This giveaway is awesome and very generous!

  29. Kat on June 3, 2013 at 12:04 pm

    I’d love to win to get some new summer clothes!

  30. Emily on June 3, 2013 at 12:04 pm

    I would love to win so I could have some clothing without holes in it once I am a licensed attorney (hopefully this Fall)!!

  31. Kat W on June 3, 2013 at 12:05 pm

    I would love to win because I need new clothes! Since I’ve gained more muscle (esp in my booty) I’ve had to give away about half my wardrobe and I really can’t afford to buy anything :/ This would be so helpful for me!

  32. Michelle on June 3, 2013 at 12:05 pm

    I am totally going to make a YouTube video about this, but I have an obscene amount of clothes lurking in my closet from my college days. I whine to myself every day practically about wanting a new wardrobe that doesn’t revolve around minidresses and oversized workout clothes, but obviously it’s a pricey endeavor to do a total overhaul! I would LOVE to have help from Stitchfix. 🙂

  33. jill on June 3, 2013 at 12:05 pm

    I want to win because I just had a baby and all my clothes are a year out of style. I need help!

  34. Hilary on June 3, 2013 at 12:06 pm

    Oh, and I subscribed to the YouTube channel. I’m a terrible dancer so would never go to a cardio dance class in public :). Perfect to do in the privacy of my own home, though!

  35. carrie on June 3, 2013 at 12:06 pm

    What a great giveaway! I’m 3 weeks from my due date, and know I’ll need some new clothes to get my through the post-partum transition. Wish I could swing the SSU now, but I’m looking forward to using it as a “late-summer shape-up” in a few months!

  36. Kathryn on June 3, 2013 at 12:06 pm

    I also subscribed to the YouTube channel!

  37. Sarah on June 3, 2013 at 12:06 pm

    Love this give away! I would love to win because I am a certified Stitch Fix addict! As a mother of two young kids, working a full time job and teaching fitness classes before or after work and on the weekends, I have very little time to take care of me! I was so excited to find Stitch Fix – now I get to have the clothes shipped right to me and I can try them on after the babes are in bed! Love, love, love!! 🙂

  38. Emily Walker on June 3, 2013 at 12:07 pm

    signing up!

  39. EMily Haworth on June 3, 2013 at 12:07 pm

    I would LOVEEEEEEEEEE to win because I had a baby girl last year and I can fit back into most of my old clothes after running, but everything is different after having a baby and I would love to start over with a new wardrobe! Thank you so much for doing this give away!

  40. Katryn on June 3, 2013 at 12:07 pm

    I would love to win because I need some new clothes to spruce up my summer work wardrobe! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

  41. Sarah on June 3, 2013 at 12:08 pm

    Oh and I subscribed to the YouTube channel! 🙂

  42. Kristen on June 3, 2013 at 12:08 pm

    Summer 2011= clothes didn’t fit due to pregnancy
    Summer 2012= clothes didn’t fit due to post pregnancy
    Summer 2013= clothes now fit again but I can tell my wardrobe definitely needs a bit of updating now!
    Stitch fix could HOOK ME UP!!

    Also, just took a COLD shower because I was super hot and sweaty from workout 1 & HIIT.

  43. Brigid on June 3, 2013 at 12:09 pm

    I want to win! I’m pregnant, so being able to get some cute, larger clothes — especially office-appropriate ones — would be so great right now. I’m about to enter my second trimester, so I know my waist is on its way out, haha.

  44. Julie on June 3, 2013 at 12:09 pm

    I love Stitch Fix! I would use it every week if I could afford it! They style the best outfits and get me out of my comfort zone.

  45. Michelle on June 3, 2013 at 12:09 pm

    My wardrobe could definitely use some freshening up for summer!

  46. Katie B on June 3, 2013 at 12:10 pm

    I’d love to win some new summer clothes-I need some help putting together a few cute outfits!

  47. NG on June 3, 2013 at 12:11 pm

    I have been wanting to try Stitch Fix since you first wrote about it, but haven’t ordered yet because I’m not sure if I’d prefer it to shopping for myself. Well, I’m starting to realize that since I never have time to get to the shops I like, Stitch Fix may be the perfect fit after all. I would love to win the giveaway!

  48. Allyson on June 3, 2013 at 12:12 pm

    I love you and your blog and I love Stitch Fix! Even their boxes are cute!

  49. Lesley on June 3, 2013 at 12:14 pm

    I would love to win as I had my second child recently and would love to update my summer wardrobe!

  50. Katie on June 3, 2013 at 12:14 pm

    I’m in that weird phase where youre in between sizes during pregnancy. I don’t fit in my regular clothes anymore, but maternity gear is too big and I just look silly. I would love the opportunity to wear some cute clothes until I have to bust out my maternity gear! 🙂
