If I read your post correctly, it looks like you are looking for a diet until you get to the liver shrinking phase. When I was at that stage my nutritionist suggested a high Protein, low carb diet rich in vegetables. Start weaning yourself off fast food(if that is an issue for you) and soda-even diet. It really doesn't have much nutritional value. Also I was told to read labels and stick to correct portion sizes.
I hope this helps. Best wishes on your journey.

Good luck on your upcoming surgery. One thing to do before you go off to the hospital is to take a good before photograph of yourself, so that you have something to compare to after surgery. Many times we are blind to our obesity. We do not see ourselves. Therefore when the weight begins to drop off rather dramatically, we question if this is really happening. Photographs are a good visualization of our success. Many people carry a before and after photo with them, just to remind themselves of their success.
