You can look it up under the reg, but basically only THE Army G1 can grant an exception to height and weight requirements

If I’m gonna use that exception to policy through my chain of command, do I need a memo, SFC?

SPC (Join to see) there is no exception to policy for an ABCP chapter. What I'm saying is that only the Department of the Army G1 has the authority to exempt someone from HT/WT, and that will only be granted in the most exceptional cases. An example would be an amputee who is kept on active duty might be granted an exception

AR 600-9 and AR 135-178 are not policies, hence no exception to policy.
AR is Army Regulation.
The waiver authority for a regulation is usually the HQDA G1.
A waiver may be granted if there is a documented medical condition preventing your compliance with 600-9.

No exceptions that I am aware of. The only one I know of is pregnancy and then you only have so much time to be back within regs post partum.
How far out of regs were you? Can you show your commander that you were making consistent progress? If so then perhaps they could stop a chapter. Not sure if possible or not but I would exercise your command’s open door policy.
