what surgery are you having?  I made sure I had a protein powder I could tolerate, some full liquid foods I could handle and a recliner
I owed it to myself to research the duodenal switch before consenting to any other weight loss surgery and so do you.  Check out DSFacts.com and DuodenalSwitch.com for more information.  Remember think twice, cut once, revisions are risky and revision surgeons are rare.

Heating pad chloroseptic spray (breathing tube always scrapes me) slip on shoes (less bending) a comfy bra (if you wear underwire only it may press on tender areas....consider a sports bra for a few days).   Also consider going to consignment shop and getting a top and pants that are fairly baggy now so if you swell you won't be miserable and have NOT A THING that will fit for a day or two (it happened to my sis), a good paperback to pass the time.
