I use the frozen because the can ones contains salt which is bad for them. It took him a couple months, and he lost about 1 ounce a week, we have stayed on the diet and the vets happy with the results.
Thanks for the suggestion I will take her to the Vet on friday and first see if he thinks she needs to be on a diet then if so I will try the green beans
