I didn't bring any clothes. I wore the same clothes I went to the hospital in home. Heck I was only in them 2 hours before they had me in a johnny. I brought chapstick and did use it. I brought deodorant, hair brush, my cell phone which I can search the internet on and check email. That's pretty much it. I had my kindle but, left it with my husband because I wasn't in my room much. Didn't want to leave it around if I wasn't there. I slept alot and when I wasn't sleeping I was walking most of the time or watched tv. I had to stay 2 nights, 3 days. The more you walk after the surgery the quicker the gas they pump in you releases. I've had 4 bariatric surgeries and always walked lots after each...never had that gas pain when I got home. Thank goodness!
