Exercise and lose weight. Stick to a Mediterranean diet.
The best way to prepare for a donor and any surgery is to eat healthy and get plenty of rest. Your diet should be balanced with proteins, vegetables, fruits and dairy. Do not take illegal substances or drink much alcohol. This will help to improve your immune system and prepare it for the transplant.
Stop all bad habits and ask your doctor what they want you to do. I do wish you well.
