I'm booked in for surgery for the 14th, a little nervous as I'm a mum of 2 beautiful kids and have an awesome husband, but I weighed up the pros and cons (excuse the pun) of the risks of this surgery and the risk of me having a heart attack before I'm 60 and its a no-brainer. Other than my husband, I haven't told anyone else that I'm having WLS. Work knows I'm having keyhole surgery but not what its for. Anybody else feel like they want to keep it private?

I feel exactly the same way - only my husband knows and work thinks I'm going in for some surgery on a cyst. I'm not ashmed of it but I don't want everyone to keep asking me about it and I don't want it to define who I am. It's just like any other medical problem you are getting fixed, some people will want to share that with friends/family, others won't. A personal choice I believe

I'm just starting day 7 tomorrow - surgery booked for 14th March - can't wait to get it done now!
