5 weeks post-op and filler up!

Well I am 5 weeks post-op and I have lost 46 pounds on the "official" scale. The surgeon could not be happier with my progress, and I have to say, me neither. So I have not been having that nice full feeling in about a week and a half so in the office today I jumped onto the table and said "filler up". It was not bad at all, I did not feel a thing. I now have 4cc's total in a 10cc band. (4cc total in a 10cc band.........sounds like a 70's rock band) I had to do the old drink test to make sure "LB" (little bastard) did not throw the drink back at me. Well it did not; so the Surgeon patted me on my back and said "see you in six weeks" So I am back on two days of liquids....ahhhhh the good ole days.
