Your favorite protein powder. I recommend figuring out which that is now. I've spent too much time, money and stress worrying about getting my protein. I love PB2 and mixing in extracts.

Sugar free Popsicles were my saving grace! The name brand is so much better than the non-brand in this case. Sugar free jello, chicken or vegetable broth and your favorite Crystal Light.

I'm only 3 weeks out so I'm still doing all of this.

I agree with Season26, just don't stock up too much. You won't be eating near the amounts you are now. My 1st week post-op, I was not even able to finish a sugar free popsicle per day. My 2nd week, was about the same, but a little better. And for weeks afterward, I was only eating about 3/4 can of soup per day with a tablespoon of peanut butter here and there.
