She doesn't need some strict diet—she should just eat normally. The key is avoiding excessive salt or heavy spices; sticking to boiled meats rather than grilled is probably better...

Generally speaking, once you hit the two-year mark post-surgery, those plates and screws come out. If they stay in longer, the bone starts growing right over them—meaning if you want them removed later, a surgeon has to actually chip away at the bone, which often causes more harm than good. So, it’s either an extraction or they stay in for life. Personally, I’d lean toward removal; having foreign hardware sitting in your body isn't exactly ideal, regardless of which way you slice it.
