Bariatric advantage chew bites

Does anyone use the bariatric advantage calcium chew bites? If so how far out were you using them? I am now 6 weeks out using the chewable which I can't stand. I am being told by my Dr the chew bites are recommended for over 3 months out. Not sure if I can do another 6 weeks of the nasty chewable.

    Have you tried the chewables in caramel flavor? I think they are delicious! Just like eating candy to me. I look forward to them everyday. I didn't care for the other flavors I tried.

  • My Dr office only sells the Carmel and chocolate peanut butter ones. I got the Carmel. MUCH better than the chewable wild cherry. Those were disgusting!

    I got on the BA website and did the online chat with a representative and they are sending me a free sample of vitamins for the bypass. You guys should go on there too, free is always good and that wa

Thanks for the info. I switched to the Carmel chew bites today and going to research all the other suggestions to get the best deal with my next purchase. I appreciate all the help!

What flavor are you using? I really like them, esp the caramel ones.

We are eating two Flintstone multivitamins at breakfast and two at lunch and BA caramel calcium citrite 500mg 1x/day. At least I think that's the regime. This was our first day. I better double check. Lol

I love the raspberry ones, they taste like candy to me which is awesome because most Vitamins are hard to stomach.

I've used the Bariatric Advantage caramel chews since the week following my surgery. They are really good. I'm 4 months post-op and am about to finish my last bag of them. Once these are gone, I'll switch back to the Citracal monster sized pills. I don't have any trouble swallowing the large pills now and they are much less expensive than BA.

No problem :) Also, the other flavors of Celebrate chews aren't nasty so if you like sweets I'd give it a try...I just like fruity vitamins lol. I think the reason they are so much cheaper is because you can buy them in bulk. Celebrate calcet creamy bites have 500mg of Calcium and are: $23.90 for 60 Celebrate chews have 250mg of Calcium and are: $11.75 for 60 Bariatric Advantage chews have 250mg of Calcium and are: $12.65 for 60 So, I guess they aren't significantly different..weird. I wonder if my surgeon raises the price for the BA chews in his office..

What flavor or flavors do the celebrate calcet creamy bites come in? They are definitely cheaper than the ba caramel chews I am taking. A word of caution, i was chewing my calcium this morning and it pulled a cap off my tooth. The cap has been on there for over 10 years tho. My dentist let me come in immediately to re-cement it thank goodness!

I also went on the BA site and got a compete sample pack. I am going to check the site and see if they off samples as well. Definitely don't want to spend money on something that tastes terrible and am stuck with it for a month.
