Holy SMOKES that glaze is just perfect! What is doenjang? I’ve seen gochujang, but not doenjang. I’m not a huge fan of overly spicy hot, so I’d probably back off on total quantities, but always interested in new (to me) ingredients.

I live on the wild (read: lazy) side - wouldn’t bother.

It’s Korean fermented soybean paste - not spicy

Hot beef dip sandwiches for dinner here with a side of oven French fries. I picked up some Mango sorbet that I can’t wait to try for dessert.

Another turkey meatloaf sandwich this time on pumpernickel with extra spicy mustard and melted cheddar. Pickles, coleslaw, icy cold Blue Moon and plums for dessert.

The point is getting your heart rate up. Then by adding arm exercises, I lost weight, or reproportioned weight, without even intending to. If you have back pain, you should probably consult a physical therapist to find out what are the best exercises/stretches for you.
I used to do an hour of kickboxing 3 times a week - great cardio with the benefit of getting to punch and kick the shit out of the bag. Sadly, our coach left and I’ve not worked out since.
Starvation will hopefully eventually do the trick. It’s too cold for dresses now, and my pants don’t fit.

My husband and I have been fasting during the day Monday through Friday and then eating and drinking whatever we want at night and on weekends. We’re each down about 15. Sadly, I’ve sort of plateaued lately and would like to lose some more, but still feel a lot better than I did and instead of going up a size in my jeans, I’m down a size. I seem to have more discipline if I know I can indulge at dinnertime. We do hit the gym a few times a week. (I realize that this is off-topic. Sorry!)

Pretty good! Chard stuffing was a sub fors spinach, which i may have preferred. The best part was, it was not dry! I don’t usually like the loin because it is dry and boring, but this jazzed it up.

God, don’t starve- it totally messes up your metabolism. I speak from experience.
I feel your pain though. I’m 42 and the weight battle is getting tougher. I eat mainly low carb- lots of greek yogurt, eggs, cottage cheese, fruits- I try to eat protein heavy because protein keeps you fuller longer. I don’t have a lot of time to work out- I mostly use my treadmill and crank the music when I can or do some yoga videos. My goal is to tone, if I lose a bit of weight, that is a bonus (10 lbs max). It’s tough when you are busy. Watch your booze intake because those calories stick with you.

Dinner tonight is looking like a marinated spatch-cocked chicken- I think I’m going to go with lemon/oregano/garlic. I have some corn to use, so likely just corn on the cob as a side and green salad. I may pick some of the gorgeous apples from my neighbour’s tree and make a crisp to share with him. It is definitely a fall day here-- super windy!

Sounds good!
Great! Try a little in the microwave next time… it basically dehydrates the okra and makes it crunchy (also zucchini chips) but you have to be careful towards the end.
Gorgeous presentation with that pinwheel!

Christina answered already, but I’ll add that if you have a korean market nearby, there are a lot of bean pastes in the gochujang area that aren’t spicy - actually even my current gochujang isn’t. The doenjang I bought was a garlic version that’s similar to one they serve with korean bbq. But if you don’t have a korean market handy, miso works too - it’s easier to find these days in conventional grocery stores. Oh, gochujang ketchup is a newish thing - also not spicy, but probably good for meatloaf!
