The loosing weight battle

Rusty on Nutrition - Mon, March 31 2008

Well now, mom's got me on this "diet."

Anyway, she's impressed with how good I'm doing. Dr. Ward said that I need to get down to about 18lbs and that might be hard b/c I'm a carb junky :)

Mom's got me on the Wellness Core formula (high protein/low carb)--I get 2/3 cup in the morning. In the evening, I get 1 3oz can of Wellness grain free or Authority Cat food and mom dumps out and saves any leftover Core for the next day. So far, I'm not even eating my entire 2/3 cup because the food is so filling! And, mom is very impressed by me actually eating all the canned in the evening! This is the appropriate amount for a 15lb cat, so I SHOULD loose weight seeing as how I'm 22.5 pounds.

Just to protest though, I mutilated her bamboo plant this morning (well, dad left the chairs pulled out so I could jump on the table)...serves mom right for trying to change me.

Having to shed those pounds is very hard. That is way mommy keeps close tabs on my weight. If I get a little heavy, it is green beans for me.
