Which weight loss surgery would be best for me?

Okay so starting off this journey I wanted to get the lapband. But after talking to a few people, they've said that the lapband is for people that only want to loose 40-60 lbs. Is this correct? Because I'm. 28 year old 5'4 and 325lbs and my bmi is 55. So that being said which surgery would be the best for me to achieve a weight loss of 180lbs so I would be a healthy weight. Thank you in advance!
