Any advise on what to bring? I'm scheduled Monday morning YIKES! I'm nervous and excited and a little worried about a slight head cold causing a reschedule but I'm ready. I'm down 25lbs and excited to start my journey!

I've read to bring gas x strips to help with the gas, headphones and earplugs to drown out the hospital noise, loose clothing and chapstick. Am I missing anything?

I think you have it! Best wishes and remember to get up as soon as you can and start walking, hanging onto the IV poll and keep on walking! I recuperated so much faster!

Good luck!

Deodorant, tooth brush and toothpaste, a robe and slipper socks. Walking the halls in my hospital gown (or my nightgown) wasn't comfortable for me. The robe kept me covered an warm since I was always cold.

My heating pad was my saving grace for the pain in my shoulder from gas.
