People post daily to the VSG board in a thread called "whatcha eating today?" So that might be worth checking out.
My forever diet from my surgeon requires 60-80 grams of protein a day, at least 64 ounces of water, and 3 meals a day with no snacks. My meals are supposed to be 4-8 ounces each and take no longer than 30 minutes to eat.
It's not a three month diet, though, this is how I'm supposed to eat for the rest of my life.
Here are the basics I try to stick to.
1. Prioritize protein and water
2. Deprioritize carbs, especially the refined and processed ones
3. Make the most of healthy fats
4. Eat three meals a day with no snacks
5. Avoid liquid calories (breakfast protein shake is the exception)
6. Weigh portions
7. Eat mindfully and with no distractions aside from real live people
8. Move as much as possible
9. Weigh myself daily
10. Be kind to myself
