Happy Friday!
Just as suspected, my abs are so sore from yesterday’s ab smackdown that I’m having a hard time breathing. I swear…it’s those eagle legged crunches that get me every time! To do eagle legged crunches, wrap one leg over the other (as you would in eagle pose) and then lace one hand under, one hand over for the eagle armed bind. Then, crunch everything together and extend out. Speaking of abs, anyone remember this little video that I made a year and a half ago??! hahahah Don’t laugh!!
I love waking up to a near empty almond butter jar on a Friday!
Also drinking some Sencha Orange Blossom tea! Remember, ELR readers now receive 10% off on their tea orders by entering the code “eatliverun” at checkout.

Have fun tonight! Breakfast looks great!
Ohhhh, I love coconut ice cream, too. I make my own, it’s really easy and so delicious.
You’re hardcore. Back at yoga studio already. You go girl. Have a fab date tonight!
Oh yes! i remember the crunches video and it has been a tremendous help! thanks!
))) i really enjoy your blog! thanks again! 
the crunches video cracks me up…but it’s got some great moves! glad you got a great ab workout, i might be slightly jealous
Blogger dates are the HOTTEST. And here I thought we were going to see your mystery man.
Enjoy your Indian food! Now I am craving some.
BODA lose weight
I can’t believe you’re back at yoga already while so sore! I hear it’s good even if you’re sore to do yoga the next day as well. I’m not sure why! The second day is always worse for me anyways, so I guess it wouldn’t be too bad. Enjoy your date with BethT!!
Have a great time tonight!! (in SF?) You make me want to come to cali so bad! the food and scenary look stunning!
Indian food sounds so good right now! Have fun tonight!
I loved your video. I’ve never seen the cross legged one, thanks for sharing
So jealous of your Indian food today
And your motivation to still get your ass to yoga despite being sore! I need some of that.
Have fun with BethT!
Oh, we did those eagle crunches at Monday’s yoga class and my abs were killing me the next day!
Thanks for the egg white oatmeal tip! My boyfriend and I have been wondering how this all works out and I haven’t been able to find anyone to explain it to me– the eggs get cooked with the oats. love it!
TJ’s is the best almond butter
eagle pose crunches sound positively evil, yet wonderful!! definitely adding this into my exercise routine. thanks!
Silly girl. You showed us all for being so nosey.
LOVE indian food! Have a blast on your date
Dosa is really good. Enjoy!

All of this rain is crazy! In Arizona we have received more rain in a week than we did in all of 2009!
oh now I wish I had a hot date for Indian food too!
I’ve got to try that almond butter jar trick. Also, I’m going to a Hatha yoga class next week…I’m excited! I hope it’s agood workout!
Haha have fun on your “hot date!”
Oats in a jar = the perfect breakfast.
And thanks for instructions on how to make the oatmeal with egg whites, i’ll have to try that technique.
Have a fun Friday night on your “date”!!
Yum! I love Oats in a Jar! I had that yesterday morning!!
Funny title…great oatmeal!
AIAJ on a Friday morning? That’s tops!
Ha, and thanks for the big date reveal. Hahaha. Awesome.
I can’t wait to see what Indian Food dish you order!
I need to work on my core strength, so those eagle pose crunches sound like something I need to try out!
I’m so jeals of your near-empty nut butter containers
I think they should start selling them that way….
My yoga abs class kicked my butt today too!! I’m worried about my 10 miler though tomorrow! My abs might be too sore to move! Have fun on your “date”!!
that video is so cute! you look sooo young. you could pass for high school aged in that video!
I never feel any abs…blah…I give up and get too lazy…have fun at Indian.
Sencha is good. Only tried it once though.
Holy yum…your dinner date makes some delicious looking food!
I like putting egg whites in my oats (a little extra boost of protein) and I love putting my oats in an AB jar!
hahahaha. Loved the “big reveal.” You totally had me fooled.
Darn I couldn’t see the video. It said there was an error.
I don’t get those eagle crunches at all. You might have to post another video to clear it up!
Oh I love the egg white oats! So good! I also love finding muscles that you forgot you had! I swear, every time I do dead lifts, I rediscover my hamstrings! I love it!
lol. I love your date thing. That’s what we all get for wondering.
Ahh you trickster! I was hoping we would get to find out who your hot dates have REALLY been with. Maybe sometime in the near future?
I want to try these new oats! Love OIAJ!
Aw, and here I thought “The Big Reveal” would spill the beans about the new boy in your life.
You’re such a B.T. (blogger tease)!
Have fun on your hot date!
I tried those eagle crunches after reading your post, I was so sore the next day!
