New running shoes and some Bondibands! I have either a huge or odd shaped head because regular headbands just pop off my head. I am hoping these will work!
A bodybugg! They wear these on the Biggest Loser. I also heard Valerie Burtonelli talk about hers in her book Finding It. And my boss has one and loves it. All of that and some internet reseach convinced me to get one! You wear it and it tracks how many calories you burn. You input what you eat and that way you can see if you are on track calorie-wise for the day. So far I have just used it to see how many calories I am burning on average, but starting Sunday I will be tracking everything!
Some much needed new nail polish. I haven't bought any in forever (or painted my nails). But last week I decided to add "painting my nails" to my weekly to-do list. I went through my nail polish bag and over half of them were no good (too goopy or separated too much). So I got these to kick off my new collection.
My mom gave me the money to get this sewing machine on Black Friday. It was only $50! I already signed up to take beginning sewing classes in a few weeks at our local Art Center. I am hoping to make a few things for around the house but most importantly I am hoping I will be able to hem my own pants! Being a shorty this has always been an issue for me and I will be so happy if I can do it myself!
These awesome new shoes! I REALLY needed new shoes. I find a pair I love and wear them down to nothing. I had never heard of this brand before (Levity). Apparently it is exclusive to DSW. They are so comfortable and so cute!
This might be my most favorite of all! This was another Black Friday buy- only $69! It has been forever since I rode a bike, but as a kid it was one of my most favorite things to do. I got my first bike when I was five (I think) and I barely had the training wheels on for an hour before I was riding every freaking day throughout the neighborhood. And just like they say "it was just like riding a bike"- it came right back to me! I have a grocery store right down the street (with a Redbox!) and even a Target about a mile or so up the road if I am feeling really adventurous. I plan on getting a little basket for the front. I also take Cam out at night when there aren't many cars out. I ride and he runs beside me. He LOVES it because he can run so fast! It makes me a little nervous that he is going to jerk away or stop suddenly and cause me to crash, but so far no accidents!
Oh and I used some of my Christmas cash to buy tickets to see this when it comes back to the DPAC in May! So excited!
What was your favorite gift this year?

I'm so jealous of your Body Bugg! I've been wanting one since first seeing them on Biggest Loser..let me know how it works out :)
I am jealous of the body bugg too. I been wanting one so please review it and talk about it after you have used it.
I am most excited about the ice cream maker attachment I got for my kitchen aid. Ever since the surgery I need lots of protein (like 60-80 grams a day). I can't stand another protein shake and found a bunch of healthy recipes for ice cream with protein in it.
Also the gift cards for amazon. Always need books for my kindle :)
oh wow, i love all of your purchases! especially the beach bike! I would love one of these if i leaved in a flat area! and those high heels gorgeous!
And the tickets to wicked, jealous! I wish it was still showing in Australia so that I could go and see it!
Have fun with your sewing! Can't wait to see what you create!
