How are you all affording all this Calcium from Bariatric Advantage, Celebrate, etc? Since RNY people are supposed to have 1500mg per day thats 3 of them a day of the 500mg,some are only 250mg. And with only 30 in a bag thats less than 15 days for like almost $30. Is there some type of program to help offset the cost?

From my source, I get the 500 mg Bariatric Advantage 90 count for less than $32 a bag. That's 30 days worth. And I LOVE the tropical orange!

Even cheaper if you get 3 bags at a time. And free shipping.

Google KAL calcium citrate chewable Mixed fruit Supplement, 500 mg, 60 Count and it will come up on Amazon.com This is the cheapest I have found and my doc is impressed with my Calcium and proten level. I was told to ONLY use chewable for the best absortion. I take 3 a day at least 2 hours apart and 2 hours from multi vit (Flintstones Complete recomended by my doc}. These calcium are $8.99 for 60 so that is 20 days worth. Haven't found anything cheaper anywhere and they do NOT sell chewable citrate inywhere locally. I order 4 bottles at a time and shipping is free.

I also drink 2 premade Premier Protein shakes a day that I get at Sam's club. The chocolate ones taste very similar to Yahoo chocolate drinks. they are a little pricey but since I eat so little I can afford them and they are obviously doing the trick. I am 7 months out and ALL my health issues, except for arthritis, have disappeared.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
