Calcium Citrate Opinion Poll
While I managed to get all my vitamins in today, I really didn't care for my Webber Naturals Blueberry flavoured Liquid Calcium Citrate plys Vitamin D.
I'm thinking I need to convert to a chewable version...
Just wondering what people like... I guess it's sort of an opinion poll?

Well, if it's that easy than yes! That's what I want to do! I've been so focused on everything being chewable...but as long as I can get it in, that's all that matters. Thanks Tracy!

Toni these are the ones I take. I did the liquid post op but HATED it. The fruity flavor was gross. I would agree with Tracey that chewing them would be the cheapest and flavor wise the best way to go. From about two months post op I was swallowing the petites.
In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

Most drug stores carry them. I have seen them at Walmart, Shopper's, Guardian.
ETA: You need to take a lot of pills per day to get up to your 1500 mg if that is what your surgeon suggest. I make sure to buy a brand that has 500 mg per tablet then I only need to take 3 times per day. I believe Citracal Petites only have 200 mg per tablet.

Bariatric Advantage offers chewable Calcium Citrate with added vitamin D and K in chocolate, cherry and cinnamon if you wanted to have something that would be a little 'treat' during the day. For myself, I'm going with the Celebrate Calcium Plus tablets (small enough to swallow) which come with added magnesium, zinc, copper, D and K. They are also available in chewable form in cherry, and berries and cream flavours, but the chewables have sorbitol which doesn't agree with my stomach.
