How much do you take a day?  I have these little powdered packets that mix in water.  I have also been prescribed the green vitamin D capsules.  I take that once a week.  (50,000IU)

I take 4-5 scoops a day in my proteins. Well, 1 per drink. I prefer the canister cuz it's cheaper and the packets are more work for me.

If your D doesn't come up very soon, switch to the 50,000 unit dry form D3. It'll work way better for ya.

P.S.  My year + long absence has NOTHING to do with my WLS, or my type of WLS. See my profile.

I do the same as Michelle.  I do 4-5 scoops a day spread out over the day in either a protein drink or water or other fluid.  I love the jug of powder too. You need to work out with your doc how much you need in case you need more than this. Kathy

Kathy, I am in need of getting a really good calcium supplement b/c I think I haven't been doing enough. Where do you find Upcal D? Do you order online and if so, where from? Thanks in advance!
