Thursday's eating and training

So I started off with oats yesterday instead of my usual breakfast...am one of those people who eat the same breakfast for months on end, the same, never think about changing it up....I have a challenge going for next week on my Healthy Lifestyle group where we have to change up our breakfasts on Monday, Wed and Friday and take photo's of those meals..so will post those pics on this blog as well as on group.

I am having a block of dark chocolate and about 30 g of crisps daily...this week am not going to buy either as if not in my house I dont eat them....besides those two treats my food is very good....but yet I still am struggling to lose the 3kg's I gained when I stopped all products with Aspartame. I'm going to be 100% honest and tell you that I am actually thinking of going back to sweetener and leaving honey and sugar as I am desperate to drop those 3 kilo's before Cape Town, but am having a fight within myself as I know how bad sweetener is for one and of course for my MS.
It did shock me that I actually have thoughts of going back to be honest!!!

I ran in the forest with my client yesterday, I felt really good and wanted to GO, but she was tired and not feeling it, so kept to her pace while encouraging her to keep going...we did 7km in just under an hour, which is slow going...but I burned calories so was happy, am sure I was in my fatburning zone most of the run anyway.
Last night I went off to teach a class....spoke to the group and said that I will not be teaching Dance aerobics as most struggle with routines ( after 5 years ) so going to the more PT type class with lots of high impact...they were all happy with this idea....I taught the class that way and whereas I usually burn over 400 calories I burned over 600 in the same period of time, so PT type classes gives one a much better workout...

Last night I got home and made a tuna salad for dinner....

This morning ( Friday )
I taught my client a Circuit class with cardio and toning for one min at a time, then when we completed the circuit we went out and ran around the block, came back in and started the circuit again and so we went for three sessions, each time we went out for a run we ran an extra block around ~ I burned nearly 600 calories so am happy as it was a good way to start my day today.
