ok- SO, I’m not a huge fan of New Year’s Resolutions. But- I do think a new year is a good time to get back on track after the holidays.

I for one- feel like I am losing my MIND after Christmas, New Years, and 2 weeks of kids being home, family, and food. So for me- I just try to get back into my regular healthy routine come the New Year.

BUT, that’s not always super motivating. So I like to treat myself to some new items that get me excited and motivated!

Below are a few of my favorite things I got this year to revamp my routine.

A new workout bag

I am a sucker for a cute bag. If I am going to have to pack a change of clothes or items to bring to the gym, what better way to get motivated then to have a new adorable bag to pack. I fell in love with this backpack the minute I saw it.

Single Serving Blender

I love a smoothie after the gym, but if I make one in my big blender, I always end up making too much and throw half of it away after it sits in my fridge for a day.

I bought this adorable single-serving blender and I have never been more motivated to blend up my favorite protein shakes post workout.

My Skincare Splurge

I am ALWAYS looking at the newest skincare gadgets and I finally found one that I actually think makes a difference. I was a light therapy skeptical until I started doing it and now I am IN LOVE with it. It helps me with so many skin ailments such as fighting breakouts, wrinkle reduction, and helps with my rosacea.

A water bottle that I actually like to drink from

Everyone knows that drinking water is super important. However, for me- its all about convenience. I like this water bottle because of the mouth piece. I know it sounds weird. But, the straw is on the inside, so you can suck water from the mouth piece or pour it into your mouth. And- its cute.

Add some excitement to your workout

I was getting bored with the monotony of running. So I decided to add in a new hobby and took up pickleball. Honestly, I was so sore after the first time I played due to the lunging and lateral movements. I bought myself these adorable paddles to keep myself motivated!

A Smart Scale to Track my Progress

I have always been scared of the scale and thought measuring health and fitness by weight alone is an outdated method. So- I recently got a smart scale that measures tons of body metrics including- muscle mass, water weight, fat percentages, etc. It creates charts for you in the app to track your progress and has really transformed the way I set my health and fitness goals.
