Which Surgery to Have ---WHY??? --- HELP ME DECIDE

I thought I wanted lap band, but then the doctor suggested bypass, but said the decision was mine to make. Well, I can't seem to make it. I change my mind from day to day usually after reading horror stories about people throwing up or dumping or sliming--I didn't even know what some of those terms were three months ago! I need to lose about 90lbs, am 59, and have diabetes- type 2. It sounds like there are so many limitations on what you can eat. Which procedure has the least limitations? I will follow the program strictly, but want to make the right decision. Please help. I am in month 4 of pre op and need to make a decison. I am going to the hospital's orientation tonight for the second time to ask questions. I am so confused right now.
