We say this every year: “New year, new me!” But what if this year, we actually stuck to it! Luckily, we’ve put together some easy steps you can take to be the best you you can be in 2016.
Drink More Water

This is simple! If you’re not already, it’s critically important to stay hydrated and drink enough water. This is something that can easily be incorporated into your life. Remember to bring a bottle of water with you everywhere you go. When you’re at work, take frequent breaks to fill up a glass of water. Frequent trips to the water cooler don’t just mean office gossip — it means a healthier you!
Move More

This can go hand in hand with drinking more water. Getting up to walk around the office, whether it’s getting water or just doing a lap is a small step you can take to becoming healthier. Choices like stairs over the elevator or walking rather than driving are so easy but sometimes not your first choice. Change that in 2016!
Exercise At Least Once A Week

You don’t have to be a gym rat to be active! Whether you’re idea of a workout is a light walk around the block or a sweaty cardio session at the gym, make sure you’re taking time out of your day at least once a week to be fit. Your body and mind will both thank you!
Stick To Your Plans

Do you frequently flake on plans? Stop being that person in the new year! If you make a plan to do something — do it! (Unless of course you’re sick and can’t get out of bed or it’s an emergency). Don’t cancel last minute; be the person that anyone can depend on.
Wear Sunscreen

This seems like a no brainer, but it’s shocking how many people don’t do this! Wearing sunscreen is a must, even in the winter and cloudy climates. Protecting your skin is one thing you’re sure to never regret.
Save Money

Saving money can seem like a daunting task, especially when many of us are supporting families or living paycheck to paycheck. Even if it’s only $5 or $10 dollars, try to put some money away into savings each month. You’ll be surprised at how fast it grows!
Eat Clean

Eating healthy is a goal a lot of people set in the beginning of a year, but unfortunately don’t stick to…don’t let that be you! You don’t have to be fitness obsessed, but making small healthy changes to your diet, like switching out fries for a side salad for example, can help you start the process of starting the healthiest year of your life!
What is your New Year’s Resolution for 2016?
Like Walt Disney said “The way to get started is Quit Talking and Begin Doing”. #mymotto2016
I will be saving money each week so we have a nice Christmas in 2016! We did the weekly savings plan in 2014 and, even though we were barely scraping by, managed to save $600 that year just by putting away $10 – $12 a week.
I’m really looking forward to 2016. I’m already looking ahead to 1/2/2017 so I can look back on all my accomplishments. it’s going to be a great year. MY YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2015 was pretty amazing and I’m so looking forward to seeing 2016! I’m going to get these extra pounds off and be a better mommy and wife.
I was not going to, and do not usually, make a New Year’s Resolution; however, I did promise myself that I’d try new things this year. That being said, here goes –
My New Years Resolution for 2016 is to KEEP IT SIMPLE.
It is my intention to simplify:
my diet
my overall lifestyle
my social media perticipation
I’m ready for a new fresh approach to daily life, that will get me moving and more extroverted.
The best way to be a better Mommy and Wife is to love yourself more.
Take it from me, nobody can love Tina better that Tina can love herself!
Once you start to incorporate change into your life, and begin to feel better about yourself, there will be no stopping you. I’m a Tina fan! Go Tina! I wish you all the luck.

Excited for you!
Stick to your guns Erika! Nothing feels better than accomplishing a goal. Have a great 2016.
I like your motivation Sacha! You’ve got my support. I wish you all the best for this new year and beyond.
I am looking forward to just making some changes. I’m not going to call them resolutions, because then I’m more likely to break it. I like all the ideas in the above article, but let’s be honest, if we choose too many we are only setting ourselves up for failure. So I’m picking two changes this year. I’m going to save money and drink more water. Hope you all make some changes to becoming a better you in 201 .
I thank God for sparing my family and I to see another year. I tend to forget about drinking water and I surely don’t exercise enough. I plan on going into the new year with new goals and improvement. I plan to be a healthier better me.
