It may well be muscle pain. Unless it swells, gets red, you get a fever, I'd say let it heal for a couple days. If it gets worse, or any of those symptoms, see a doc! -
I need to know the truth.

4 weeks out and only 16 lbs lost. Totally regretting this surgery.

I am so sorry that you feel frustrated. That said this is common. Stalls happen, and they often happen about "now". You also might have some 'buyer's remorse', we EACH have strange heads! But there are no take-backs here, so Press Forward and know that the weight WILL be coming off if you keep with your program! -
Are you on chemo?

Just wander around the site. Many threads on the topic! Mine lasted about 5 and 1/2 months. HOWEVER I learned a LOT and the time was not wasted!

Great answers. You want to be comfortable with this before surgery, so keep researching until you are. Let me emphasize two points... (1) it is not magical... YOU still have to follow your plan and (2) Deaths from obesity are more likely (by far) than deaths from this procedure.

after all is said and done, could it go through a straw? (but don't use a straw)...
