Guest guest Posted July 19, 2002 Report Share Posted July 19, 2002 Well, I can probably sign up for Stupid 4, too. The girls got lunch today, I ordered med. diet (sigh, fast learner, huh?) and they made it a Biggie instead. Instead of pouring part of it off, I got excited. (still sick in the head). BUT it was not diet. LOL! Ha ha on me.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2002 Report Share Posted July 20, 2002 Well, my experience, I was told to take TUMS for calcium. Hated em because I hated the sweet taste, now...if they were chocolate, that would be another story..right momma??? Then I started taking the Kirkland Calcium (which is carbonate). Still never had any problems but then started listening the Momma a few yrs back and heard ads on the radio for citrical. Well, what's the big deal, might as well be safe since I take it anyway. Switched to Citrical and figured if it works, don't fix it. I am 8+ yrs post op, my bones are very dense and my dexascan 2 months ago was beautiful. I drink regular coffee (leaded!!!) in the morning only. I drink decaf iced tea but mostly I drink water all day. My rule is AFTER I drink my 80+ ounces of water, then I can have crystal lite or iced tea. I do not drink soda because it is an old cycle food for me so diet coke is not an issue. Don't care for spinach but love romaine lettuce...hmmm.... Anyway, knock on wood, my labs are perfect though we are still tweaking the synthroid and cytomel.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2002 Report Share Posted July 20, 2002 I would think if you crushed the tablets you could mix em with something. I have no problem swallowing pills so I am fine with them. rita- -- In Graduate-OSSG@y..., marilyn wrote: > Hi, Rita and all...you mentioned citrical...do you know if you can put that > into a protein drink?

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2002 Report Share Posted July 20, 2002 Are you aware that you can get calcium citrate in a capsule? You can just open up the capsule, dump the powder into a liquid- water, Crystal Light, protein shake, etc. and drink it. No taste, no chalk, and all the good stuff that you need. I get mine from Vitalady- there may be other sources but I haven't found them and she has a cap that already has the mag., boron, vita D, and calc in 500 mg. per capsule doses. You might want to think about that. Alice The Loon RNY 12/28/00 > Hi, Rita and all...you mentioned citrical...do you know if you can put that > into a protein drink?
