Take a nighty/pair of jimjams a dressing gown, panties that are 100% cotton and not too tight( otherwise you have to wear their paper panties and they are really crap) slippers and your toiletries and any meds you are taking. Don't forget your dressing gown cause you walk to theatre and have a delightful theatre gown on which is open at the back!!!!!good luck.

I cannot understand why they give such teeny paper triangles with tight elastic though when they know we have gone in to be operated on to lose weight. Talk about kick a non-skinny person when they are down!
