What to Tell People About Surgery

Hi, I am scheduled for Lap Band 12/28/09. I have a very few select friends that I have told. Can I tell the others who ask that I've had hernia surgery withou raising suspicions? I really don't want to lie but when they ask me to go for New Years gatherings, I need them to know it is for a good reason and that I am not just dismissing them...Thanks.
