I was too sore to exercise today, but we did get a good hour walk in and I went to the mall and was on my feet for 1.5 hours shopping. We had Beef Stroganoff for dinner – it was great! I could have done without the meat though, as it just doesn’t do much for me! More mushrooms instead please! And we had more wine.
Breakfast:
Oatmeal pancake with NO additives. It was extremely flat. I think it needs the baking powder, which husband said DOES affect levening. I’m so confused with these two baking things! I’ll go back to adding a pinch of powder.
Pancake cross-section:
Snack:
I had some snacks at the grocery store (chicken sample, cookie sample, cheese sample) but I canceled them out with the walking I did while shopping.
Lunch:
Leftover lentil loaf over homemade wheat bread with melted brie (it wasn’t really that good)
Leftover slaw with yogurt and maple (that was good)
And some chocolates:
Also had some sips of wine (husband had some for lunch!)
Snacks:
Spent the afternoon making spaghetti squash for lunches and cranberry sauce, which I decided to make on a whim to stir into oatmeal and yogurt! I ate some of both!
Got an hour walk and 1.5 of shopping in the afternoon.
Dinner:
Beef Stroganoff with mushrooms and yellow pepper. I made the base, weighed it, and then added the meat separately to get accurate calories. It was quite filling! Can you see we’re on a kick with the old fashioned comfort food recipes?
Side: Lime-scented green beans. If I learned anything from the Tuna Casserole night it’s I need a pile of veggies if I’m not having a heaping portion of main course. These were DELICIOUS!
And a hefty glass of wine after I drank 2/3 (we have two open bottles and are trying to get rid of them!)
Total Sunday calories: 1411
-275 thru walk and some shopping (which I guessed less on)
= net of 1132.
I’m pretty full and must go read in bed now. I could easily fill up these calories with some chocolate or something, but I’m probably better off just assuming I had more bites of things than I realized today and calling it quits.
Night!

Hi Kath, I’ve been searching for a lentil loaf recipe that looks good and I think I’m going to try Molly Katzen’s (Goddess of Vegetarian Cooking) Lentil-Walnut Burgers. You could make it into a loaf instead of burgers. I will email you the recipe.
