Hi, new here--How to get 5-year weight history when I haven't gone to a doctor ...

[michellem0 0]

five years in a row?

I need this for Aetna, but I'm not sure what to do with it. I did go in 2003 and 2004, but I was pregnant both years.

Any thoughts?

Do you know you're approximate weights???? If so, type them up in a chronological order and see if your PCP or any doctor would just sign that. Maybe that would work.

I had a list of dates and weights over the years and that was enough.

Good luck

You can use the weights from the beginning of your pregnancies. That should be acceptable. Any doctor visit you went to for any reason would also have a record of your weight. Did you go for your yearly pap? Your ob/gyn will have your weight. Check on it.

Are you sure you need a 5 year history? I just got approved by Aetna and I only needed a 2 years - I sent 2007 and 2008. Check on it.

I do Bariatric insurance approvals for a living. Aetna only requires 2 years of weight history. It must be a full 24 months from whatever day your insurance approval request is submitted. If you don't have doctor documention they will accept weight watchers logs, Jenny Craig weigh ins, etc. Anywhere you were weighed and someone else documented your weight. Also consider whether or not you visited Care now or the ER, had a work physical or were in the hospital for any reason. All of those are places to find your weight histroy. Good Luck!
