@johnwf That sounds like a reasonable nutritional plan, but maybe bump the calcium up to 1,000 mg/day, because hormone therapy puts you at significantly-elevated risk for bone-density loss (I can't remember if my medical team advised that amount, or just approved it when I asked).
There are other threads in the forum discussing the best kinds of calcium supplements, whether you should divide them into two daily doses, etc. I think your 2,000 IU/day of vitamin D will help with calcium absorption.
Also, in addition to your cardio activities (which look great), build in some resistance training like light weights, exercise bands, or similar. That also helps reduce bone- and muscle-density loss while you're on hormone therapy.
Viel Glück, und (kein) Hals- und Beinbruch! 😉
