  1. I weighed myself and entered it in an app. There are no brick and mortar clinics to attend and they didn't require proof of my weight like photos of the scale, or the like. I completely understand the concern, but hopefully like you said, virtual weigh-ins have become standard and are now acceptable. Otherwise I guess I'm carting myself off to a weighloss clinic for a few more months. Was just hoping I didn't have to waste that time and money doing so.
  2. Has anyone else used Found for prescription weight loss? And if so, were you able to obtain records to use as documentation of of failed weight loss with your insurance provider? I joined Found sometime last year and was prescribed Naltrexone and Wellbutrin to lose weight. Dr.s review your information and prescribe the medication and you're given a coach that hounds you daily. You do weekly weigh-ins and are given tasks and specific ways of eating based on whatever the coach decides you need to do. Needless to say, I used the "service" for about 3 months and made no real headway after spending $100 a month so I cancelled. Just wondering if that's enough, or am I going to have to do something else? My insurance guidelines state, "A thorough multidisciplinary evaluation within the previous 12 months which includes... documentation of failure of weight loss by medical management...", etc..
