how do long term captital gains affect obamacare

Situation:

I am on Medicare and wife is on Obamacare. Our income is usually about 29000 as far as MAGP is concerned. If I sell long term investments which keep my total income say at 65000 will the amount that is not taxed due to long term still enter into the calculation for MAGP or is it deducted before it goes into this calculation?
