I had RNY gastric bypass and I found the transition to hard foods such as steaks was very difficult. So I relied on softer foods such as chili and Soups. I have included a few recipes in the following article if you are interested in trying this approach. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery.pdf

You have to take small bites and chew very well. At first you may only get in a few bites. chicken was the hardest for me but I found out if I dipped it in salsa, hummus or low fat gravy it went down easier. The only steak I eat is Filet Mignon cooked medium rare. I found meatballs and meatloaf easier at first. But I could only eat 1 meatball at a time - I made them with ground sirloin instead of regular ground beef. It will get easier as the weeks go by.
