Good that Dr Hackman has prepared you for this, maybe it will improve with the surgery 🙏  
There’s a surgery shopping list one of our members wrote with everything suggested for surgery, not just food, here’s a link:

I think we might’ve had a few discussions about our favourite recipes for after surgery, but they’re dotted about. My favourite was pineapple juice, and then made into a smoothie with raw spinach, banana & yoghurt. As @Isaiah_40_31 says, protein powders are great to add in to smoothies too. I presume in the US you can get meal replacement drinks the same as we can in the UK, these weren’t about when I had my surgery, products like Huel or yFood?  
I was looking forward to the weight loss after my second surgery but I found I could eat food fine after that!
