Incase anyone didn't know I'm Nate! I'm 17 and I am 398 pounds and I just got approved for surgery!!! My surgery will be November 26th I am SO excited! I just want it to be here! I have all kinds of emotions going through my mind! I don't know really what to bring with me to my surgery.. I think I'll be in the hospital 5 days! I hope to see 230 by a year out!! What does everyone think? Please share with me your stories and support! Thank you all!!

Way to go Nate! I've not had my surgery yet, but you only have to turn around a bit to see all the successful stories here! You're next! I'm so very happy for you! You're so young and you have a wonderful exciting new life ahead of you, never forget that.
