Scared Out Of My Mind!

So after three months of consultations, nutrition.visits, and psych evaluations, i am finally approved for surgery. It only took a week for insurance to approve me. But now that I'm approved, I have gotten so scared! Afraid that it won't work....afraid I'll mess it up...afraid I'll be that one with complications....
This is also hard for me because the only people o know that knows I'm doing this is my mom and a few close friends, and for someone like me that knows A LOT of people, some really nosey, it is probably going to be much talk about me losing weight. I really don't want anyone to know about my surgery at all. What are some things you all told people about how you lost weight? I figure I'm gonna have to tell a couple of white lies :-)
