Wow, how lucky for you to get a date so quickly! Less time to fret and be anxious! Shop now for some bandages and tape, etc. that you will need to change frequently after surgery. You won't feel like getting out to look for it for awhile after and may not know how to describe what you need. If you are given morphine in the hospital, it makes you hot so take a little mini fan with you. Most of all, try to relax and realize that this is the best thing you have ever done for yourself. I am 7 wks post op and down 37 lbs. Good Luck! Renee
