VBG oppose to other surgeries...Am I making a good decision.

On August 27th, 2001. I will undergo VBG at the hands of Dr. Harberg in Houston Texas. My insurance company will only approve the VBG. I have read many sucess stories about the other types of surgery (gastric bypass, etc...) and have also read of VBG's to RNY's (surgery revisions). Should I not have the VBG? Am I going to be any less successful than the anyone who has had any other tye of surgery a opposed to the VBG? I need a little encouragement :+) Most importantly I need to hear from all you long term post-op VBGers who are doing well and got the results they hoped for!
