Sharing my New Year, New Goals with Progresso Light!
I seriously cannot believe it is already 2016. I feel like 2015 flew by, it was a whirlwind of loss and new life in our family. 2016 is looking to be a very exciting year with the arrival of our first child, my sister’s first child and my brother’s wedding. We will be keeping busy. When life gets busy it can be hard to remember what we planned to do or resolutions we made. I’m not a huge fan of resolutions because I think they can be so hard to stick with. So this year I’m setting a few goals for myself. I may not achieve them everyday but they are goals I’d like to try and work towards each month.
–Declutter my house– We started on this at the end of 2015 and have made some great progress. With the baby coming it’s kind of forcing us to clean out a lot of rooms because the room that will be the nursery is a bit of a throw all room. We’ve also discovered we can easily take all of the trash to the dump, rather than it sitting in our garage until we have room to send it out with the trash. That’s been a major score for us. So between Goodwill and the dump there shouldn’t be much junk left in this house.
–Eat healthier– This is always a goal for me but I have to remind myself of it each day, month and year. I’m not going fanatic with it, especially since I’ll be pregnant for the next few months. But my goal is to incorporate a few wholesome and healthy meals each week that give me and Tyler plenty of meat and vegetables. One area I struggle in is lunch time, my fall back is a peanut butter and honey sandwich which isn’t so healthy. That is why I am loving the new Progresso Light Soups from Publix. I love that there are so many delicious options and it’s easy for me to make for lunch. It’s a great way to get more of the protein and vegetables I need in at lunch time as well.
–Grow and Improve my blog– I have a lot of specific goals within this goal but as I continue blogging as my full time job I am always looking for ways to not only grow my blog but also to improve it. I want to improve my photography and the quality of posts I bring to my wonderful readers!
–Work out consistently– So far so good this year but I know when the baby comes this will become more of a challenge. That’s why I’m trying to get into a good routine of at home work outs now so hopefully being able to work out at home will help me with that!
–Read more books– I need to make a list of books I’d like to read and then I can check them off. I get everything done better when I have a list. Being able to look at a list and see what I’ve accomplished really makes me feel good! Doesn’t it for you?
I know these are pretty common goals, but I feel like there is something new we can do each month or each year to better attain these goals. Whether it be trying a new healthy meal or a new workout or focusing on a new room to declutter. There are so many ways to work towards these goals each year as our lives continue to change.

I love Progresso soups!! Easy quick lunch for busy moms!!! I have some of the same goals for my blog! Good luck with all of them!!!
ALL of these are goals of mine too! Good luck!
it is a quick and easy food item to heat up for my lunch break at work and keep me from eating heavier lunches.
Definitely with you on the list-making. It’s nice to see everything laid out ahead of me and know exactly what needs to be done. As for lunches, we make double what we need for dinner and package them up in microwavable containers for lunch the next day. Works a treat and requires no extra effort since we’re making dinner anyway 🙂
Congratulations Jenn! You are the winner of our giveaway! Please email me at eglover0616@gmail.com with your Paypal email address!
I’m right there with ya—I decluttered a ton yesterday and today and will continue to attack it all next week. And, I even went to the gym 3 times this week. I haven’t tried Progresso light soups but will do so very soon!
Totally stocked up on some soup for the New Year, too. My favorites are minestrone and some mexican chicken. I love a good chicken noodle soup, too!
I need to try this! I have been working really hard this year to completely change my health habits!
Eating healthier is like at the top of my list this years and exercising more often too!

We have similar goals. I’ve been decluttering since last week and I’m not even half way.
Looks like a great start to eating healthy. I have a progresso recipe coming to the blog next week 🙂
Happy New Year! I’m definitely aiming to declutter my house this year and become a charity queen. If you haven’t read The Girl on the Train you should give it a try, it’s brilliant 🙂 x
I wold use Progresso Light Soups to help me achieve my New Year’s Goals by giving me something satisfying to eat for lunch or dinner. I would try the New England Clam Chowder, looks great.
thanks for the chance – jslbrown2009 at aol dot com
Good luck! I know you will smash your goals and keep up your healthy eating, I need to start doing that x
What a great giveaway. I have never heard of the brand before but they sound like they are great for healthy living.
Progresso sounds brilliant I like that they are light rather than stodgy soups. A great way of marking your new years resolution!
Eating soup would help me to not overeat during meals. I would try the Light Chicken Noodle soup.
I wish you good luck with all your goals! Eat healthier is also something I try to achieve this year.
Eat healthier is something I really want to achive this year. Thanks for sharing this tips.
Eating Progresso soups will fill me up with nutrients instead of calories, which will help me be healthier AND maybe lose some weight! I’d love to try the creamy potato with bacon and cheese!
Decluttering is my priority this year. I’m making lots of lists and taking it one room at a time. I just can’t believe the amount of stuff we don’t need in our house.
Progresso does have some great soups! I love your goals and think they are definitely do-able. I always struggle with the workout one, but I’m sure you’ll do great! Good luck and cheers to 2016.
Yum! These photos made me hungry, if they sold them here I would be trying them out!
My goal is to stay healthy in 2016, I would try light new England clam chowder first to help.
What a great way to start the year with goals. I love the taste of Progresso soups, anything with veggies and I’m sold.
One of my goals is to eat better since I want to lose weight and already joined the gym. Progresso light soups will definitely help to provide hearty yet healthy options
Progress Is Delicious when using Progresso soups in the New Year. They offer a healthy alternative for lunches and dinners. They are satisfying and full and can be sued in dishes to help make you even more full. We are looking forward to using Progresso New England Clam Chowder to make our New Year delicious!
I love Progresso! I won’t lie… it’s my go to soup when I’m “sick.” LOL. You know, anytime I might have something coming on! 😉
I have many of the same goals for this year.I really need to get healthier.
I love soup! I usually take my broth for the chicken I cook and add veggies for a healthier alternative.
I love soup. Especially when it’s really cold outside like it is now. Love all your goals. Very similar to mine. Trying to really drink more water too. I’m so back about that. Good luck to you and happy new year!
I also need to declutter, that’s definitely at the top of my list! I’m also going to try to focus more on what matters most in life and focusing on only those, rather than trying to do too many things at once!
It can help me cut back calories and have a healthier lunch. I would try the chicken and dumplings
My new years resolution is to learn to cook healthier for my family! I have so much to learn, but I think these Progresso light soups would be so helpful! Love the calories! I would love to try the Light Chicken and Cheese Enchilada first…would love to try to put on some chicken breasts and bake. Serve on rice!
I would love to try the New England Clam chowder first!
Thanks for the chance to win!
