Default CITRACEL soft chews....

Well on the weekend i picked up at walmart the CITRACEL calcium chews been trying to add the calcium in both forms to my eating....so i got these
and will do them with the viactiv.
THEY TASTED great, i got the chocolate fudge flavor. these have the calcium citrate that many say we absorb better then the carbonate. BUT most dont like big pills post op so this was a chew

THOUGHT i would let you know.

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Thanks for the tip Lisa. I was thinking about getting them and giving them a try. I've been using GNC's brand (just like viative). I like them and it makes taking my calcium a treat instead of a chore. But, I will give the CITRACEL ones a try, since it is the "right" calcium for us!

I have been eating the caramel soft chews that are generic at WalMart and I love them, but I am really curious and anxious as to what Craig has up his sleeve and will be ready to get something new fairly soon.

Lisa thank you for sending the chews to me. I LOVE THEM. I actually was able to find the chocolate mint ones as well and i switch them up. They are a great treat. I also do the viactive thats my {candy for the day}
It really does feel like i am cheating when i eat these! Have a great day.

I personally would love some steak flavored chews, cuz right now most of what I eat is sweet....lol. or at least buttered popcorn flavor? Maybe we should get the Jelly Belly company together with the vitamin companies.
