Does anyone use UpCal-D powder or chewable calcium citrate?

I thought I would do better with powder calcium citrate because I had a hard time with the pills at first.  So, I bought 2 big containers of the UpCal-D and I don't like it.  I also bought 2 big bottles of chewable wafers and don't like them either.  If anyone is interested, you can have them.  I would rather give them away than throw them away.  Just let me know.

That's too bad, Lisa.  If others have stepped forward - go ahead and give them.  I bought just the same things but I haven't tried them yet so I don't know if I'll like them.  I'll give them a try tonioght and let you know if no one else has claimed them.  Treading

Hi Lisa,
I use the UpCal powder.  But I do not put it in my drinks, I just pour the powder on my tongue and then take a drink to swallow it with.  You might try this as it only takes a second to take this way and you don't have to taste it through the whole drink.
Good Luck

I use Bariatric Advantage.  I've found Mint tastes awful.  Couldn't even finish the bottle.  But cinnamon's not bad.  So I guess even within a certain brand you've got to try different things.  If you still haven't found a calcium citrate source I'd recommend the cinnamon flavor Bariatric Advantage.  It's not great, not like a treat or anything, but it's do-able.  It's not, you know, gross. 

Hope that helps some.  If you already found a good replacement than just ignore this.  I wish the calcium citrate chewable bites would come out already.  Bariatric Advantage bought the rights on it and SAID they would come out with them in September, but so far, nothing.  :-(

Lord, give me stregth and when I lack it, patience.
