Celebrate Calcium Citrate Alt



Recommended Posts

Greetings,

I currently take Celebrate - calcium citrate Soft Chews

500 mg Calcium Citrate

500 IU Vitamin D3

I take them 3 times a day spaced out.

I did realize that 500-600 is the max mg of Calcium Citrate you can take at a time for absorption. Anyone know of any pills I can take that aren't chewable? I'm over the chewable stuff.

I totally understand going to search for them in your store, but I can't find any that match what I currently take as described.

I just get generics at Walgreens or CVS. They usually have one or two versions of calcium citrate (the rest are all Calcium carbonate, which we don't absorb very well).

I get the petites if they have them because the standard calcium citrate tablets are kinda big. I can handle them, but I like the petite tabs better.

I'll second this... I also get the petites and usually break them in half to make it easier to swallow.

      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.
