Fine: Those foods will not affect your surgery. They are worried about increase bleeding from decreased platelet clotting secondary to the asprin, motrin, advil some wines. The other K12 are aworry if you are on Coumadin (warfarin) to prevent clots, in your case the K12 is fine

Vit K okay postop: Foods containing vitamin K should not be a problem. In fact, vitamin K-containing food such a leafy greens should be a regular part of your diet. The medications and foods your doctor wants you to avoid are ones that potentially increase the risk of bruising and bleeding because they inhibit platelet function. Post-op you should eat a healthy well-balanced diet and take a multivitamin. Best wishes
