I am looking into possibly getting the lapband surgery instead of RNY, Any Opinions?

I was originally going for RNY have done all my preop tests and insurance has been submitted. Now I'm thinking that the surgery is not the right one for me. I am 130lbs overweight my PCP says I should only lose 100lbs because I would be to skinny at 130lbs weight loss but thats what my BMI ideal weight says, Anyway I am not a sweet eater at all I could go the rest of my life with out a piece of cake or candy. So I am questioning if I really need the RNY. I am more of a food eater I love to eat Food all kinds but not sweets I think if I limit the intake of food with the lapband it would be good enough..... Any opinions? I need to make the right choice and would like to hear from everyone regarding this huge decision. Also I have to self pay with the lapband so If anyone has a doctor they no is good and reasonable let me know! Thank U all God Bless You!
