Seeing the challenges and encouragement from those of you in maintenance is such a Godsend as I approach my goal. Thank you all for your insight and suggestions!


Canned wild caught pink Alaskan salmon (including the skin and bones) is a great staple food and a very good source of calcium. Same with canned sardines and mackerel. They are also wonderful omega-3 foods. You can also get your calcium from many different fortified nondairy milks like coconut and almond. Check the nutrition labels.
