I have the same problem - trying to get more calcium into my diet without resorting to supplements (even though just last night I bought Citracal Petites and plan on taking just half the recommended dosage on those days when I need extra calcium to hit my goal).

You're absolutely right. I'm 5'4" and wasn't as active when I first signed onto MFP as I am now. MFP's recommendation back then was 1200 calories for my height/weight/age/activity level.

Each morning I have a serving of Special-K Oats & Honey cereal with Full Circle Original Unsweetened Almond Milk and a banana (with 16 ounces of water to drink).

Lindt Lindor Dark Chocolate Truffle or Whole Foods Organic Cappuccino Truffle (my fav). Both brands pack enough of a punch of chocolate flavor that I can stop at just one (this coming from a confirmed chocoholic). ; )

The article brought tears to my eyes, especially this: "Do you know what my mom sees when she looks at this picture? Her beautiful family all together. Do you know what my husband sees? The family he gained the moment he met me (and how much he looks like my dad…) Do you know what my dad sees? The happy family he has…
