I am 3 years post-op and looking for a good tasting calcium citrate chewable that I can stick to 3 times a day. I really like the VitaFusion Calcium chewable (if you’re familiar with the texture/taste) but unfortunately, it is only provided as tricalcium phosphate. I can’t stand the chewables that taste chalky - they make me gag, and I realize in order to remain committed on a daily basis, I have to find something that tastes good - Any recommendations?

I also like the chewable calcium citrate from Bariatric Advantage. They come in 500mg each so I only have to do 2 a day.

Bariatric Advantage's chewy bites in chocolate - tastes just like a chocolate truffle. The lemon isn't bad either.

Just wanted to thank all of you for the recommendations - You're awesome! I ordered the Bariatric Advantage calcium citrate Chew Bite Caramel -- 500 mg - 90 Soft Chews along with Citracal Calcium Citrate plus D3 Petites -- 200 Coated Caplets from vitacost - no shipping, arrived in less than 48 hours! The chews have a very delightful taste - a great treat with a Premier Protein chocolate shake before or after an intense weight training session. The Citracal petites are great too - just learned not to take them on an empty stomach (made me feel sick) - Thanks again for all your help!

      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.
