What a day! Traveled to Seoul, and had some training from the wife on using the subway-preparing myself to make the trip by myself--I got the subway system down now. First the bus ride, 3 hrs for $12.00. Then a short walk to the subway,paid $2.00(subway), could have spent (for a $10.00 taxi ride). The subway company gives you $1.00 back-cool so it actually costs a buck to ride the subway. Made it to the doc's and weighted in. 111.3 kg. Good News as doc was impressed. Next came the injection phase. Went to a room and laid on the table on my back. Next came the video picture of my LAP-BAND®-all was well. Two days ago I had my first episode of pain in my stomach-food pain--hurt so bad, thought someone was hitting me in the chest with a sledge hammer. After two days the pain resided. The doc said all was ok and that I was ready for my 3rd-2cc injection. Immediately upon injecting me, I felt the tightness. I got up and went to the waiting room to confirm I could drink WATER. I could drink so I did not have any complications. Now I have 6 cc's in my llcc band.Tight feeling too. Went to eat lunch-soup/fish and could only eat one half of a cup, I was going to explode. We made it to the bus terminal and shopped around for two hours before we made the trip back to our home,3.5 hours drive. At home Ihad another cup of soup and rice--1/2 cup and full again. Guess the next few days will be soup city and water. Where I am at is: started at 123.1 kg and now I weight 111.3 kg. BF loss since 4 Jan is 5 percent. :thumbup:Weight loss since Jan has been an average of 4.35#s a week for a total of 7 weeks. Last two weeks I averaged 2.3#s specifically. This 3rd Fill should enable a good weight loss for the next three weeks, untill my next doctor's appointment.:tongue_smilie:

Congrats! I'm going for my first fill sometime next week. Last week when I had my check up, I was still so tight after the operation, but now I can eat everything again (not good). Maybe I'll get to meet you there one of these days!
