Please Help with Proof of Weight Watchers Membership for Ins Co



Recommended Posts

Hello All,

I really hope that someone can help me. :) I am currently attempting to acquire all of the information that should be submitted to my insurance company to strengthen my case for why they should cover my gastric sleeve. So far so good, but I'm having trouble with finding proof that I was on weight watchers for quite some time throughout my life. I recently closed the bank account that I was autopaying WW from and I'm not sure what else I can offer up as proof, because I am no longer a WW member. Does anyone know what I can do about this?

Thank you everyone so much for your support!

Samantha

You can also call Weight Watchers directly. I called them to get my history and they emailed it to me the same day.

And you can go to your old bank and ask for copies of back statements that would show your auto-pay. They may charge for them, but hopefully not very much.

You can call the customer service number and they can email you all your dates and weights from when you were a member. I had to do the same thing.

@@Samantha&Sunshine I had to do this exact same thing -- I went to my local Center, they sent me to Corporate WW (look on their website for contact info) and they told me that they don't keep records if you didn't reach Lifetime membership. So for my surgeon's package of info, I gave them my best guess, told them what WW said, and offered to sign a notarized statement that I did, in fact, do WW "x" times, "x" approx dates, "x" approx weight loss. They haven't asked me to do that (yet), but that's my story - hope that's helpful! Good luck!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
