Robyn Price, Pediatric RD Have you been told to avoid dairy, lactose, gluten, or any other food, because your baby was having “tummy troubles”? Or maybe the term “allergy” was introduced? I’m Robyn Price, a pediatric dietitian and certified breastfeeding […]

Calcium is not only found in dairy products!
Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and helps you to maintain strong bones and teeth. It is also involved in other important roles such as:
aiding muscle movement
helps nerves to carry messages between your brain and body
helps blood to move throughout the body
helps release important hormones within the body
For those who can’t eat dairy or who choose not to, there are still many other sources of calcium you can use to meet your intake.
Here are some non-dairy sources of calcium:
Calcium-fortified beverages such as orange juice, soy beverages, almond milk, etc.
Leafy greens, broccoli, collard greens, kale, and turnips
Tofu
Chia seeds, and almonds
Canned sardines or salmon (with bones)
Calcium-fortified cereals/breads
If you have concerns about calcium intake talk to a healthcare provider

Today is a great day to: Remove the tracking apps

Today is a great day to:

Remove the tracking apps from your phone
Donate clothing that no longer fit
Eat snacks you enjoy and that make you happy
Ditch the scale
Take a rest day if you need it
Take some time to practice self-compassion today, and remind yourself that your body doesn’t need ‘fixing’.

It isn’t necessary to do all of these at once, but try to take the time to practice what you need today.

In case you need to hear it today, whether you’re eating to meet biological needs(you physically need food), or because someone brought muffins to the office and they look yummy, or you had a craving for something….

You don’t actually need an excuse to be eating (I have a workout later; this is my “cheat” meal; I have a super “healthy” lunch).

Changing mindset around this may be easier for some people than others, especially with the judgement that people in higher weight bodies can experience around food/eating.

Food provides nourishment, comfort, connection, fuel etc. and that’s enough.

Diet culture has taught so many people to count calories (the energy in a given food portion) in order to make “healthy” food decisions.

But let’s be real, the focus on calories has always been about anti-fatness (with its roots in eugenics and racism) as opposed to health and well-being.

Looking at food based on calories can cause us to ignore so many aspects of food and eating that are important:

- the nutrients found in said food (vitamin E, magnesium, calcium, carbohydrates, omega 3 fats and more!)
- social connection;
- taste, enjoyment and comfort;
- culture;
- memories.

Let food be more than calories, because it is so much more.
