I can find calcium carbonate chewables but not calcium citrate that my NUT recommended. Plus, I am not a fan of all the carbs in gummies/chewables. I am still searching! -

I went through Dr. Aceves in Mexicali. Best hospital experience I have ever had! It was $8,750 total.

I put mine on a credit card I have at a local credit union and the interest rate is about 6%. I am in the process of selling a rental and plan to pay it off with those funds. If that takes too long I may refinance my car to pay off the credit card. It's only $8k.

I have the Citracal Petites and I would not call them petite. Here are some photos for reference. They are odd-shaped and quite thick. -
I have great insurance but couldn't get my PCP to refer me (BMI 44, diabetes, high blood pressure) and I didn't want to jump through hoops. I paid for it myself and was done with it.

Oh yes, I take zinc, too - 50g every three days.

Do you have a preference as to the different sweeteners in them? I see there are two kinds. -

I'd like to try rock climbing - indoors, not out! -

I see you don't eat Greek yogurt, but have you tried it with a bit of sugar-free pudding mix in it? It's so good! -
I am almost 7 weeks out and I take 5000mcg of biotin. If it works or helps... well, that is yet to be seen!

I had been considering water aerobics but am not a fan of venturing out in a swimming suit. I don't know how to swim, either. I'd love to just get over the whole swimming suit thing and go!

My fitness pal question

I feel like I have bad breath 24/7 and wonder if the Premier Protein shakes are the culprit. Anybody else experience this? I am a daily flosser and quite meticulous with my oral hygiene, visit the dentist regularly, etc.

Do you gel them first and add that to your shake or do you just add them right in? How much do you add? -

I am definitely noticing it in my face, waist, and thighs. Though, it's as if the space between my waist and thighs is staying the same - and that's what really needs to go! -
A little over 6 weeks. Glad the Protein shake isn't in my mind!

Thanks, Fiddleman. My husband says it smells like something rotten. Surgeon said no gum chewing, but I may have to break this rule because it is embarrassing at work!
