A person who just had surgery should have been given extensive instructions on how, when and what to eat by the surgeon's office. Go with that information before using anything you get anywhere else. Different types of surgery have different nutritional requirements.
In general, protein is #1. No fat, no sugar, very little carbs. No drinking liquids with meals. Probably everything is still being pureed. Might need protein powder. Definitely chewable vitamin supplement.
