Starting WW this week!!!

[dream_small2013 19]

Got all my paper work today from my insurance and weight watchers!! I can start this week which I am going to on Thursday morning I am so excited to start but also really nervous honestly, I have to do 6 months which is 24weeks of WW, which will be broken up into two sessions and I have to attend at least 10 out of 12 meetings. Which ill be trying to go to all of them. And with each session I will need to lose 13lbs which is 26lbs in the 6 months (24wks) so I figure by November 28th I will be completely done with my weight watchers and I should be getting banded in December or beginning of January at the latest. so happy still can't believe this is really going to happen.

My insurance would not accept anything like WW....it had to be a program with licensed medical personnel including a MD to sign off my weekly progress notes....

Oh wow really, did that bother you? They are also assigning a nutritionist to me as well for each week to help with meals during WW and for when I get banded, everything is all paid in full as well for me, I'm definitely gonna take advantage of everything so I can reach my full potential

I think it's wonderful you're taking these steps towards health!

I also think it's great they allow Weight Watchers. It's a lot easier to follow than a lot of the doctor supervised diets out there.

You'll do great!

my (diet) history included WW and also TOPS...i am guessing from what my ins/dr said, as long as there is (proof) of these meetings (aka weigh ins) it would be considered proof of past dieting attempts.. GREAT job..WW is a great place to go for support.

My insurance company accepted my WW weigh-in booklet even though at the time I wasn't attending regularly.
