What kind of diet does lap band surgery require before hand?

I have been reading a lot of questions and answers concerning Bariatric surgery, most of what I read is from bypass patients, not so many lap band patients. Do you have to be on a liquid diet for two weeks before surgery and two weeks after? I am still in the initial phase of gather information, have no date for surgery yet, only saw the surgeon once along with the nurse. I still want to get as much information as possible concerning Lap Band before having the procedure done. Also, during the day, do you have to eat many mini meals? I work in a clinic setting and see patients all day, not much time for a coffee break, never less a pee break...any help on these matters would greatly be appreciated.
