Post Op/Pre-Fill Eating and Nutrition

I was wondering if anybody has received any specific guidance about dietary intake during the post-op/pre-fill liquid and solid phase.
I've heard daily intake of at least 65g of protein and calories around 1200 but I'm concerned about carbs and fat as a percentage of overall intake. I also understand that these questions typically become irrelevant with a fill because of eating protein first, followed by veggies and then a starch (assuming you aren't full yet.)
As I'm still on liquids, does anybody have any guidance?
