I had gastric sleeve surgery on sept 15 and almost two months later and I still feel pain when bending down or picking something up, is that normal

Yes. You should tell your surgeon, but basically what happens is they cut some nerves during surgery (unavoidable), and the nerves take 1-2 months to regenerate, and it hurts the whole flipping time. Not constant-pain-and-agony hurts, just more like bend-over-and-hey-what-was-that pain. I still get an occasional twinge.

Very normal, but worth discussing with your surgeon. My surgeon said the internal sutures take 100-120 days to completely dissolve, so tweaks and twinges up to 4 months are possible. Could be sutures, could be nerve regeneration pain, could be nothing. I have similar pains when getting out of bed sometimes.
