RNY v LapBand
Hi Siepie
I'm so glad you've heard from them - you're sure to save some money this way! 
Dr D will only steer you towards the RNY if he thinks that that will be the more successful procedure for you.
When I went through the agency, they sent me a medical history form to complete and some of the questions were about my eating habits (large portions/sweet stuff/fatty foods/etc) and I think the answers to those questions combined with how much you need to lose makes a big difference in which procedure would be more successful.
If Marc sends you this form to complete be as honest as you can as Dr D will base his advice on the answers and then listen to him - he has done many of these (8000 or so) and he knows what he's doing 
Good luck and please keep me posted
