Hi All! I just realized that the calcium that I'm taking daily is adding up, calories-wise. I'm wondering what other MFP-ers do for their calcium. Two chews a day is 40 calories and 8 carbs. They're sugarfree and they're yummy...but I sure would like to have another "treat" in place of these vitamins.

Thoughts?

    I used to take the chews too. I am now taking capsules from trader joes.
    Chews were much more enjoyable:flowerforyou:

    I take the chews as well. I know I'm more more likely to take them in the yummy chocolate form so I figure I can allocate 40 calories to that. :happy:

    Hi! I take calcium carbonate tablets. Just make sure that they have the vitamin D with them for better absorbation. My mom takes the chews, and I used to, but....for me it's just easier to remember to take a pill with my daily multivitamin. Anything like Caltrate or Citrical works fine.
