I believe it is important to know yourself, and understand what life will be like after each type of surgery. (Because each requires different lifestyle changes.) Then decide what you are willing to do to be successful and stay healthy.
Whichever you choose, it has to be the right one for YOU. Keep in mind, however, that the lapband remains inside of you, and the port lays under your skin. In my opinion, this is not "non-invasive." There are arguments for and against every surgery, but I don't think the term non-invasive is really appropriate when referring to something that is installed in your body.
Some people like the idea that the lapband is "reversible." I don't understand why someone would want to have that option. Its like going into a marriage saying "I can always get divorced."
My point is that the priority should be weight loss and overall health. Its up to you to figure out which surgery will best serve those goals.

It is alot to think about but look into all your options before desiding on the lapband. I would hate to see you having an unsuccessful surgery and then needing to have a revision
Have a great week! and, by the way, where's your FAVORITE place to go apple picking? I'm thinking of trying somewhere other than Maskers, in NY, where I've gone for the past 20 years...
Where else is good (and less expensive!)????? Mary C
