What do I wear, day of Surgery???



Recommended Posts

SInce its only a 35 - 45 min. proceedure and I get to come home after 2-3 hrs in recovery... what should I be wearing that day... so as to be comfortable on the Drive home (2 hours approx.)

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Peaches9

:)

I wore loose baggy gym sweats (try shorts in this heat) and tea shirt no bra. More importantly, take gas X and a pillow for the ride home. You will be given a pain killer prescription but I went to my local GP and he gave me a painkiller that suited my other prescriptions and my allergies. Doddie

Doddie's got it covered, but *I* wore sweatpants, a tank top, and zip up hoody (to hide the no-bra thing!) :)

LOL I wore a light sports bra, more light an undershirt but very light and snug(Wal-Mart special) a walking skirt, button up blouse and flip flops. It was hot there and I was very comfy. I guess most everyone wears something that isn't tight on the tummy.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
