I am curious as to what ins co is looking for in terms of physician-supervised diets

Like everyone else, I have 'dieted' my whole life. But I am wondering what the ins co means when referring to physician-supervised diets. My experience with doctors over the 43 years of my life has been that they say you should lose weight and they hand you some papers that have been copied many times (the allowed and don't ever eat this, lists) and that's it. I have never had a doctor say, 'well then, lets put you on a supervised diet' I am currently 356lbs and don't know how I can substantiate my failed 'diets' to the ins co. I've ever been one to go to this and that 'diet' center, and in the past few years have resisted diets, since I know my failure with them just further depresses me. Any advice on how to 'talk' the the ins co would be appreciated. Thanks
