Six months of weight lose programe.



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I just received my letter from the insurance specialist from the Barix Clinic. I need to provide documentation from my primary doctor of failed supervised diet. I don't have it. Does that mean I will need to join WW for six months to provide this?

I have B/C B/S of MI.

Thank you

Sometimes that is what you need to do, others go their PCP and they are weighed and put on a diet, and they go there six straight months. Call your insurance or the insurance specialist or BOTH!

You and I have the same insurance I had to do a 6 month weight management, for 6 months, and I had already completed weight watchers as well as medical weight lost they said since it was two years ago I had to do the 6 months. Good luck.

I completed 6 months of WW and BCBS of MN wouldn't accept it because my doctor (PCP) didn't document my monthly visits in the medical records. My PCP wrote a letter but BCBS is picky.

I am now starting another 6 months of scheduled nutritionist visits. I should be done in September. I was bummed out because I wanted to have surgery in June. Everything happens for a reason.

Sooo... I plan to ENJOY my summer - steaks and burgers on the grill, fresh fruits/veggies from the farmers market and the last summer of Plus Size clothes!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
