Pain after 5 months
VSG on 11/21/12
No, it's not normal to have a lot of pain at 5 months out.
Yes, a lot of people reshape their body. It's hard to put on muscle when you are eating at a severe calorie deficit though. (Some experts think it's impossible.) This is something most of us do once we get to goal. Strength training during weight loss is more about preserving as much muscle as possible than about reshaping.
