Sleeve vs. Plication?

My husband and I are scheduled for Aug 1st for the gastric sleeve in Tijuana Mexico at the Obesity Control Center. His BMI is 49 so he is certain he is getting the sleeve surgery. My BMI is 39 so I have a choice of Sleeve or the newer Plication. Does anyone have any feedback about this? Has anyone had the sleeve or Plication longer than 2 years? Some other general questions: Do you tend to overeat as soon as you heal? If you do can you bust open those staples? After the initial time to get used to the difference do you feel deprived? I'm more worried about my husband because he is such a big eater. should we sign up for some sort of counceling when we get back to the states? Thanks for the experienced input. Donna
