I started off with the liquid Calcium citrate from vitamin world.. and it was just nasty, couldnt even swallow it. I then found the Bariatric advantage calcium citrate chews and got them in caramel they are good!! However.. they are only 250 of calc each so i need to have 4 a day and each one is 5 grams of carbs and 20 calories. So I need some other options......... what is everyone else taking?? THanks!!

Off the shelf cal-cit tablets. I don't seem to have any issue swallowing, or should I say stomaching them.

yeah they are nasty, I am going to ahead and buy the ones you take normal. I have the nasty liquid vitamins too, I am putting those in my protein shakes. The b12 sublingual isnt bad though.

I use the Bariatric Advantage chocolate flavored chewables, turn them into powder with a coffee grinder and mix into my morning protein shake.

Once you are on solid foods you should be able to take citracal vitamins. They are Calcium Citrate. They also have the petities if you can not swallow the regualr ones.

I was cleared for all pills once I could eat. Ask your dr. tho!

I am taking Viactive Calcium Plus D....20 calories....500 mg Calcium 500 IU Vitamin D.....but it is calcium carbonate.....(but guess it is ok because last two months of labs are fabulous) They are chocolate and taste just like tootsie roll...yummy!

Celebrate makes a chewable that I use that offers 500mg of citrate in one chewable, along with Vit D and magnesium. Yep, they're a little chalky, but they dissolve quickly, taste good, don't get clumped up in my teeth, and I only have to take 2 per day. So, a little chalkiness is well worth taking just 2 per day instead of 5-6 2 hours apart.

calcium citrate Plus 500mg are the ones I order. I also use their Multi complete with Iron which are chewable as well so I get all my Vitamins in with just 4 chewables per day. Way better than 6-8 for my little life.
