UHC approved!! if.....



Recommended Posts

i can provide 6 months diet history and 5 yr weight history from my doc.

i got the 5 yr weight history from my doctor... but... i have a question. i was told that weight watchers counts as history... so i have 4 months of it. all my weigh ins are hand written in..... ummm what are ya'lls thoughts on just completing the weigh ins myself??? my aunt told me to do it! she had to tell "white lies" to get approved so she said go for it! i need some more opinons!!!!

Great! You give me hope! I too have UHC, and was told by them that is what I need as well....at least on one of the 5 calls I've made to them....each time I've called I've gotten a slightly different answer.

I also did WW and just got to the 25 wk mark, then no more entries....I wrote one in for the 26 week, just for good measure! LOL! Hope it's ok....I still did the program for a few more weeks, but i didn't pay for anymore of the meetings. Plus my doc can attest to my attempts as well, so I'm hoping I won't have problems getting approved....I have a BMI of 37, but HBP, and family history of diabetes, heart disease and cancer.

I just started my pre-op testing today.

As for 'fudgin'' the numbers, I'd say go for it, but I'd be nervous about doing it for too many weeks.....but who am I to call the kettle black...I did it with one week.
