"I'm ready to start taking a little time in the day focusing on myself," she wrote. "For me that means my health. Why? Because I wanna be around for a long time for these three kiddos of mine."

Hudson, 39, admitted that for moms, working or not, balancing personal life and kids is tough.

"Let's be honest, kids take the number one position," she said. "And it's haaaard to make time for yourself. I've been doing a lot of research and I've spent my time trying all kinds of new things that are focused on health and wellness."

Hudson pointed to her other Instagram account and blog "Pretty Happy," telling everyone that she will be documenting and giving out tips for moms there, along with "all kinds of fun tidbits from exercises we are loving" and even healthy recipes.

On the blog, she posts about how working moms can exercise for just 5 minutes in between emails and more!

"My GOAL: I will be shooting a film in the spring and I'm looking to shed 25 lbs," she added. "I wanna do all this and keep up milk production, raise my kids, work everyday, make time for my man, have girlfriend time and stay sane."

Hundreds of comments cheering Hudson on came rolling in, some fans saying after reading that real look inside her life, they "like you even more."

"This is an amazing health journey," another commenter wrote.

The actress and her boyfriend, Danny Fujikawa, welcomed a baby girl on Oct. 2, Hudson announced in an Instagram post at the time.

Hudson also has two sons, ages 14 and 7, from previous relationships.
