Mes pieds?

I thought we weren't supposed to use ma, mon, mes for one's own body parts in French? Wasn't there a lesson on that?

Hi Melisa, 

You are correct and the lesson you are referring to is the following one -

https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/revision/grammar/using-le-la-les-with-body-parts-and-clothing-definite-articles

But as usual there will be exceptions and it depends on the verb you use. 

With 'regarder' you use the normal possessive adjectives ...

Hope this helps!
