I just heard back that Medical Mutual is requesting proof of additional Weight loss attempts. My PCP ent a letter listing the different drugs that have been precribed over the years...Redux, Xenical, Meridia...I also Included a letter listing every diet plan I have ever been on...probably close to 30 (see my journal). The only supervised weight loss plan I was ever on has been weight watchers, 4 or 5 different times over the past 20 years. I know the approximate dates and I listed them, but I have no other proof because WW says they only keep records for 4 months after you stop going. And I threw away all my old stuff, and I only keep bank records for three years, so I can't eevn find a check or charge for them. I don't know how it is true that WW only keeps records for 4 months, because they send coupons for me to come back all the time! But they lady from the WW headquarters told me that and said that a lot of bariatric pts call requesting the same thing...Anyway...I don't know what the heck kind of proof I can give them???!!! I have about 15 weight loss books that I have bought over the years...Hilton Head Diet, Atkins, South Beach, Dr Phil, Oprah, Susan Powter, and many more. Shall I send them??lol. I might be able to track down a receipt or go and get one from my last hypnosis attempt from last April, but the last time I went to WW was in 2001-2002, and I can't get proof for the life of me. HELP...does anyone have any idea of what I should do? I am waiting to hear from Cleveland Clinic about what their next step is....I really really don't want this to go into the appeals process....I have been waiting long enough!:help:

Did you try asking how far back the bank/credit card company keeps their microfiche records? It may cost you, but it will be worth it. Believe it or not I actually found my receipt from WW at home (2003) and Jenny Craig had my stuff from 2002 & 2005. It may be worth a call....I would think any prescription diet would be supervised, no? CVS had my RX records from 2000...

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
