I have been morbidly obese for most of my adult life; however, 5 years ago I used

starvation as a weight loss tool. I lost over a 100# and have gained it all back in the last 2 years. My insurance requires morbid obesity that has "persisted" for 5 years. I consider the last 2 years as a demonstration of a failure to keep the weight off, but medical records from the last 5 years will show that I was much lighter. My BMI has been 40 for the last 2 years. I don't want to have to stay MO for another 3 years, who knows how many years that will take off of my life!
