Fat Guy Forum Episode 266 - Nate's Focus!

Nate Goncalves has always lived his life with hyper-focus in all of his endeavors. He did not grow up overweight but after returning from serving our country he dealt with physical injuries and mental health challenges that brought addiction to pain killers into his life. In this week's new Forum he shares how conquering that addiction brought new challenges including seeing his weight balloon to 415 pounds. This is where the hyper-focus came into play as he began a journey that not only included weight loss but building his body to reflect the strength he clearly shows on the inside. We talk about his decision to have weight loss surgery and have a frank discussion about the factors that often interfere with the success of that procedure. Don't miss this honest look at the work needed to change his life and how he wants to help others now achieve their goals as well.
