There are lots of people here in Cheyenne that have had wls but doesn't seem like anyone is on this site.
Actually I was going to get off the OH boards because BCBS just denied me for the second time so I need to figure out what my next step is.

Nothing tastes as good as thin feels!
Anyone here from Cheyenne??
I just wanted to let people know there is a forum for the community and anyone who is friendly and want to stop by. I was very active 3 years ago and would like to see it become active again. It is listed under "weight loss related"
I am not attempting to offend anyone. I understand that some might not agree with me posting. I am doing it to help LGBT people. Everyone has the right to not agree. I respect that.
Thank You !
