should I check my luggage on the way there and then leave behind liquids I don’t need

since I’m visually impaired finding my luggage on the carousel would be more difficult than you may think.

Its within the carry on guidelines.
It is a rolling duffel so I don’t know how well it would fair as checked luggage.

I’m having a hard time fitting my essential liquids in the 1 quart size baggie. (well they fit and the top does close and the baggie is not BULDGING but it does look “cluttered” and since I’ve never tried to put that much into the baggie and make it past security I’m worried that they will make me take stuff out)

But I can toss some of the liquids before heading home so there will be enough room in the liquids baggie for what I do need to bring home.
All of the liquids are within the guidelines so it would not be a problem in a carry on.

Since it could take a few hours for my luggage to get to my room I would definitely take a personal item on the plane with my absolute essentials that I may need before my luggage arrives like sunscreen, medications, a hat, and anything else I’ll need to go to the parks.

Also I would consider shipping toiletries BUT it is only me going and only for a few days so it seems silly to do in my case. Now if my whole family was going and only wanted to do carry on luggage I’d find that to be more worth doing so please do not suggest that.
 
Why do you want to throw away the liquids before coming home? Are you not checking a bag coming home?
 
There is no reason to leave behind liquids that fit in the bag.
 

The baggie is allowed to look cluttered.

If your shampoo container is small enough, you'll use the shampoo up on your trip and that won't be an issue.

My SIL's 311 container is ridiculously full. She's been traveling with it for years now. No issues. This isn't a worry.
