WW and medical history, help!



Recommended Posts

I have BCBS FEDERAL...they require a 2 medical history of being obese... I have been overweight since I was 7 (I'm 22 now). Thing is, I had my daughter in 2009...my 6 weeks post-partum appointment was the last doctor appointment I had until Nov 2012...there is a 2 1/2 year gap of no weight documentation :(

But, I did weight watchers from 2010-2012, thank goodness I used the e-tools to track my weight online.... has anyone submitted documentation from WW as weight history and been approved???

Thanks!!

I have read on here before that someone had submitted WW records and they excepted them. I also was prepared to use mine if I had needed to, but got lucky and was approved first go. I think it may have been caligirl?, but can't remember. I think it may depend on insurance. Best of luck.

My doctor closed her practice about 2 years ago. My current doctor only had the past 15 months on me. Insurance accepted it. No problem.

And you owe it to yourself and your child to use that insurance (I have it, too) and get yourself in for a baseline check on your health! Guess you can tell I am a mother.
