Quick intro

Hello everyone,

I just *found* this Men's Forum and wanted to just say hello and introduce myself. 

As you can see from the avatar I'm a James Bond fan and had RNY Open procedure done at the end of July 2008.  I had my consult last October 2007 and I was ~324.  Day of surgery I was 309.  I go for my 3 month follow-up tomorrow and suspect I'll be around 256.  I'm *not* a person who steps on the scale weekly or daily.  Kinda like my 401K - I don't want to look at it that frequently but force mysel to look a few times to make sure I'm on goal/plan :).  I step on the scale monthly and usualy after our local WLS support group meeting.

I've kept the whole WLS RNY news to myself.  I've told only a small handful of close friends and immediate family but noone at work or aquaintences.  It's one of those private things that, frankly, I don't *want* to hear anyone's unsolicited (and usually uneducated) opinions.

I'm a new Dad, loving every minute of it, and my little daughter will be 1 year old around Thanksgiving.

Hope to participate more with meaningful content and questions over time.


Regards,

Welcome GD!

Sean Connery will always be my mindset of "Bond, James Bond" not the Johnny come latelys but alas that is Hollywood for you.

Congrats on your weight loss so far too.

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

Thank you!

There is a big article in Cigar Aficionado this past month on James Bond and the new guy.

Welcome to this board.  Lots of changes here in the last 6 months, but they guys here will help in any way they can.  Glad you are doing well and congrats on being a dad who will now  stand a much better chance of being around to see all of the milestones.

Welcome Sir!

I think Daniel Craig makes a kick-ass bond! Especially with the new type of raw, dark Bond happening now. Quantum is about the only film I want to see for the rest of the year besides "Zach and Miri" (I'm a Smith fan).

Now of the old Bonds, it'd definitely all about Connery!
