Monetize Your Weight Loss With A Tax Break – LearnVest

Link: Monetize Your Weight Loss With A Tax Break – LearnVest

I’m going to be doing some writing for this Web site, and I found this on their blog today. If you’ve been prescribed a weight-loss program by a doctor, you may be able to deduct related expenses on your taxes.

All programs must be recommended by your doctor, who must confirm that your current weight is a threat to your health. Approved expenses include behavioral counseling, appointments with physicians, dietitians and nutritionists, commercial programs for weight-loss and maintenance, gastric banding or bypass surgery, and FDA-approved weight-loss drugs.
