The top 2 are fully grown and are going to be removed, but the bottom 2 are only half way grown and are not being removed the same day (getting it removed later). Am I going to have problems with 2 bottoms wisdom teeth and no top wisdom teeth?

How do you brush your teeth correctly? and keep your mouth clean.

You may have a problem with two bottom teeth and no opposing top teeth. The bottom teeth could cause irritation to the upper gums. Or, your teeth won't line up properly if your upper teeth start to shift because the upper wisdom teeth are gone. As for what you can eat, it depends on how you feel. Don't eat or drink anything too hot or you'll bleed. Other than that, just plan on taking a long time to finish anything. I suggest things that are really easy to chew, such as soft noodles like spaghetti.

You will not even be able to tell the wisdom teeth are gone after the healing is done..so don't worry about having any problems with having only the bottom wisdom teeth.
As for what you can eat after the surgery..you will be given a sheet telling you what you can eat and not eat but if you are just curious so you can stock up it is usually things like this:
soups with no noodles like tomato and broths only
pudding
ensure drinks
no hot beverages
milk shakes (no straw)
ice cream

shouldn't have a problem loosing the tops and they're the easy ones to get out, if your dentist is good they'll both be out in 5 minutes after your all frozen...you can eat what you like but just imagine taking the pointed end of a dorito into your sensitive gums , =O, just gotta be careful. soft food good for the first couple of days, soup maybe not... sometimes hot liquids will disolve the stitches faster.... rinse with salt water after eating make sure nothing gets stuck anywhere.

Liquid foods. You can still eat solid food but if they r small enough, they'll probably get stuck in the gums where the tooth were. Which will give you bad breath.
Theres no problems with top 2 missing and still having 2 bottom. It's gonna feel better without them anyway.

i drank some ensure plus (vanilla) for a couple days after just to keep minimal stuff in my mouth and still not be overly hungry. they have a lot of calories, you don't have to worry about chewing, and they have lots of vitamins and minerals which is good for you - especially when your body needs to heal up.
rinse your mouth with saltwater a lot too but don't spit. that might make you bleed again.

Soups. I would ask the dentist/oral surgeon for guidance.
