another calcium question
I like the chocolate flavor from bariatric advantage. It can get expensive but I am on the quarterly refill program so I get free shipping.
It is good to ask questions that have already been answered. Some people are lurkers and may not have seen the original post and others may be too shy to ask but want the same info. Please...ask away!

I can't help you with the chewables I take the calcium pill with vitaimin D. Keep on asking the questions that is what the board is for, and the guys and gals don't mind answereing the questions we have a great group of folks who are willing to help us go through our weight loss journey. I thank God everyday for this board, and the wonderful folks who post and help me through my weight loss journey.

Don't worry about repeating questions, I do it too, we are new to this and it takes time to learn and absorb all this information.
I use Calcium Citrate wafers from TwinLab. They are citrus flavored and are currently on sale at The Vitamin Shoppe. I liked the chocolate calcium from bariatric advantage pre-op, but didn't like them post-op.
Will we ever be able to switch to something like Viactiv?
Citracal used to make these "creamy bites" things (I loved them), then they discontinued them, and now Bayer (which bought the brand Citracal) is supposed to be making them again? I think that's the last I heard.
For me, I take the Wal-Mart brand horse-pills, but I'm also 2.5 years out and able to handle them. I also liked the Twin Lab wafers.

Hi Sheryl Lynn,
I'm a little late with my input, but I go to https://www.colonialmedical.com. It's a premeasured powder in indivdual packets. So you can put a few in your purse & go...you need 4 a day! And they're not expensive either. Just click on Dietary Supplements & look for Upcal-D. The best way to take it is to get a tablespoon full of liquid & pour it in the spoon & you're done!
Hope this helps, Anastasia
