Hi. Just wondering what others with a lapband are using for calcium supplements. I was told to take 1500 mg a day and can't swallow alot of supplements because of the size of the pill. The gummies are great, but I need to eat 6 of them a day and assume that has a lot of sugar which is really counter productive when trying to lose weight. Any suggestions would really be appreciated.

I use Bariatric Advantage they have a nice chewable calcium chew. They are a little spendy but the band ruined my ability to swallow very well so I have to use something chewable.

I was told that our need for calcium is no greater than for anyone eise as we absorb all we eat. So I simply as a post-menopausal female, eat a high calcium diet.

Highest 290, Banded - 248 Lowest 139 (too thin!). Comfort zone 155-165.

Happily banded since May 2006. Regain of 28lbs 2013-14. ALL GONE!

But some has returned! Up to 175, argh! Off we go again,
