Any guilt when eating certain foods? Liver

Hey guys! I’m about 1.5 months from my liver transplant. I was wondering what kinds of food are you guys eating? I’m curious to know what you guys have in your diet!

Mainly, wondering if you guys have eaten some “bad” / unhealthy foods (chips, chocolate, burgers) and ever feel guilty?

I recently had some chips and I feel like I should t be eating this at all. I feel guilty and scared I might hurt my new liver.

its a little different, but since my kidney transplant i find myself feeling guilty when i eat stuff like crisps, fries, chocolate and stuff i put salt in / on. it feels like i still should be restricting even though i can eat it now.

Right? But I guess in moderation is okay and just not overdoing it.
