Here is the email I got today from Liv-Lite. My question is do I need to call my dr's and ask them to prepare something for insurance or should I type up all of my diet history myself?? Thanks for your help! Shannon, We received a letter from BCBS of AL today requesting your 2 year diet history with specific dates of these attempts. Once you have this information please mail to LivLite @504 Azalea Dr Oxford, MS 38655 or fax to 662-513-9670. Thanks, Becky Wilson, RN 1-800-976-5589

Ok, if some of you don't mind looking over this...i would love to have some constructive critisism. Here is what I have prepared for my diet history to send to Liv-Lite for them to send to BCBS. This is how I have it worded and everything...PLEASE ! March 29, 2002 - gave birth to my son. Breast fed until 06/2002, ate right for the baby, GAINED weight. 09/2002-1/2003 - took metabolife with ephedra. Lost 10 lbs. Gained it back plus some 3/2003-5/2003 - took Metabolife Ephedra free - didn't lose. 8/2003-10/2003 - Dr Lora Pound prescribed Meridia. Did not work. Didn't lose any weight. 2/2004 - Saw Dr. John Edwards, my GYN. Advised to lose weight in the next 6 months. Gave me a reduced calorie diet. Discussed dieting with him. Ran diabetes test, negative. Dr Edwards said that my irregular periods and bladder problem were obesity-related. 2/2004-present - walking 4 nights per week and reduced calorie diet. Lost 10 lbs. Any time I ease up, I gain this all back. 6/2004-7/2004 - tried low carb diet, lost 10 lbs, couldn't stick with it, gained it back.

This is a sample of how I did mine. Not all diets are here but you'll get the picture. From what I have been told is that they don't care how you gained the weight. They want what diets you have tried and failed on. I sat and really had to put some thought into ALL the diets I tried but I got them all down. My original copy has how many pounds I gained back. Always gained back what I lost and then some. All my other notes came from my PCP and other Doctors. Any tests that where run I got them from my Doctors. 1972, Low fat diet, 14 months, 55lbs lost. Supervised Physician. 1974, Low fat diet, 8 months, 20lbs lost. Supervised Physician. 1996, Phen Fen diet, 6 months, 45lbs lost, Supervised Physician. 1998, Slim Fast diet, 8 months, 10lbs lost. 2003/2004 Merdia, 6 months, gained weight, Supervised Physician
