Hi,

With the New Year just around the corner, it's a great time for you to get a jump start on your resolution to be a newer and healthier you.

We gave 25 moms a $50 Kmart gift card and asked them to purchase health and fitness tools - including vitamins, health supplements, and exercise equipment.  We've asked them to share their goals with us and to tell us their honest opinions about their Kmart shopping experience.

Do you have any plans to start the New Year as a New You? Tell us all about it!

Check out what mom's are saying about their New Year's goals:

I want to find an easy way to be in the living room with my little one while he is playing and still keep a workout going. - jbyrd898

I have been having a very hard time the past few months losing weight. I've hit a major plateau. I'm hoping with some new exercise items I can get back on track. - 3lilmonkeysxo

I want to lose the 20lbs and tone up my body! Having two kids have done a number on my stomach! lol. - jen113000

Wow what an awesome influencer with Kmart. Congratulations on the 25 moms who are participating. :)

I do have plans to start the new year as a new me. I want to lose at least 18.5 pounds, more would be great but 18.5 pounds is my initial goal. :) I'm also cutting out soda and fast food COMPLETELY.

I just was notified that I am a a part of the Kmart New Year, New You program. I am so excited because I want to get back in shape. Before my baby, I was fit, ran all the time and lifted weights. My friend and I would run 15 miiles on a Sunday. Now I can squeak out three if I am lucky on the treadmill I have. Right now, my workouts are running on the treadmill in our basement and lifting some light weights, probably three times a week. I need to keep reminding myself out important it is to be consistent.

Anyway, I want to find an easy way to be in the living room with my little one while he is playing and still keep a workout going. While i haven't lost all definition in my legs and arms, I need to bring it back up a notch! Anyway, I'm trying to lose 10 pounds and get myself in a size six, and give myself some muscles. Will keep you updated after I receive the gift card and head to Kmart!

I hate that I missed this influencer. I plan on being more active and eating better...I'm not gonna promise giving up fast food, chocolate, or soda though because I know that I can't do it.

Yea, its hard to cut out everything, but definitely small changes are important too!
