Low impact exercises, like stair climbers, ellipticals, and biking are great. I have a similar hip injury, but these do not bother it. Also, start a weight training regimen and also concentrate on your lower body strength, to build the muscle around your hip. I've done so, and the lighter body weight, and I'm now able to jog outdoors, which is more fun than staying indoors.
As for foods, just eat healthy. Breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a couple healthy snacks in between and no eating after 7pm. Water, and fresh fruit juices are good, but keep the juice almost as a treat, since there's a lot of calories.
As for salads,put more bulky vegetables than lettuce (broccoli, tomatoes, carrots, beets, peas), and make sure you add protein to it. Boiled, eggs (no yolk) and seeds/nuts are my faves. Also, go really light on the dressing. Use balsamic vinagrettes, or if you're really skimming/daring, a light sprinkling of lemon juice! yum :)
You can also go with a small salad, and a special K meal bar or an equivalent. That's a good option if you want something fast, instead of burger and fries.
