Rib pain/discomfort

[BigDaddyJoe 246]

OK, I'm down to below my surgeon's goal weight in 5 1/2 months (yay me!). For the past few weeks I've been getting this strange discomfort by the lowest rib on my right side. It is kind of hard to describe, but I'll try my best. It is almost like a muscle or tendon or something is resting on my rib, and when I move a certain way it slides off the rib and almost 'pops' into place. It doesn't really hurt, but is uncomfortable and gets annoying. Any idea what this is, and if there's anything I could do about it?

Gall bladder? Doesn't that cause right side pain under the rib?

I really doubt it is the gall bladder. It really feels like a muscular thing, like it is moving. And it is only when I am changing positions. Maybe it's just one of those things I'll have to live with now that I'm not fat, like the tailbone pain when sitting down for long periods of time now.

I have this as well. I am not at goal but I have noticed the last couple of months this like dull ache on the right side there. It isn't my gall bladder or kidneys. The only thing I can think of is that is the side I sleep on the most so with new bones poking everywhere, it gets sore or something.
