Has anyone experienced discomfort sleeping after weight loss?

I am about 5 months post op and have lost about 100 lbs. I've noticed in the past few weeks that sleeping has become uncomfortable. I used to sleep on my side, but now when I do I get soreness in my arm, and sometimes some numbness across my hip, almost like a nerve is being pressed somewhere. I guess I've lost some of the padding that made sleeping easier! I've taken to sleeping on my back for the first time in a long time, but wondered if anyone else has had this problem and what he or she might have done to help? Thanks very much!
