    calcium carbonate vs calcium citrate

    Nothing?? Nada?? Well then... Calciium in supplements are in the form of calcium carbonate or calcium citrate. Calcium carbonate is inexpensive and more commonly available. Both forms are well absorbed HOWEVER patients with decreased stomach acid (i.e. after gastric sleeve surgery) will absorb calcium citrate more easily. These supplements contain different amounts of ELEMENTAL CALCIUM, which is the actual amount of calcium in the supplement. Calcium carbonate in supplements is only 40% ELEMENTAL CALCIUM. For example if a supplement contains 500 mg of calcium carbonate, only 200 mg is elemental. The other 300 mg is the carbonate ingredient. Calcium citrate is 21% ELEMENTAL CALCIUM but it is better absorbed than calcium carbonate and does not require acid for absorption.
  6. Hi, You should be fine did you feel ok after? did you only have a tiny bit (1oz) Just don't do it again! As far as gummies I would hold of on those for a while they are well... Gummie and I think your stomach is to new to handle those yet. I was told not to worry to much for the first week or two on the vitamins. But you my want to try an adult chewable when you start taking them..
  7. As far as "bad" some sleevers simply can't tolerate it anymore after the sleeve. But assuming you could, it would be "bad" because it could really fill you up... And it has no real value to it (protein) we have so little space that the focus needs to be on Protein consumption first, Veggies second etc...

    calcium carbonate vs calcium citrate

    My thoughts are.... No!! Hehehe... It think we need to stick to the citrate because of absorption issues that you would still have a year out and beyond But don't worry I'm sure someone will come along soon and disagree with me

    Hello from Marci!

    I am a slave.. What can I say I weigh everyday! I wish I could do once a month but that just wouldn't work for me. I am too nosy and always need to know what's going on. I also take my presents out from underneath the Christmas tree and shake them, poke them etc. to figure out what they are!!

Brown the turkey I'm a big pot Dump the rest in and cook until peppers are tender

    feeling like a failure

    I'm one month before you 11-13-12. I feel your pain sometimes I feel my weight is coming off so slow that if it were any slower it would be going backwards! But it's not! its slowly month by month going lower! Yes at a snails pace but when I look at my ticker I realize that it is looking good. I would not be at this new weight if I hadn't had this surgery, I'd still be 235... Don't give up, I know most of use give up on "diets" after a couple of months because of frustration but this time I promise you it will be different if you stick to it

    Leak?

    Sannah, Thinking of you this morning, as I'm sure all of us are... It saddens me that you have had another setback. I really do pray that you hear some good news soon. I know this tough for you, but you will get better, I just know it, and you will have a full and wonderful life with your husband and Venla.
