Cry Mickey is Over Weight and Won't Eat His Nuggets

I posted her a few weeks ago regarding Mickey's diet. I am getting more concerned now because he has been panting a lot more. He is so picky and stubborn. I was feeding him EVO dry food however he hardly EVER touched his nuggets maybe once a week. I contribute his major weight gain to his wet food intake. I did not want him to starve so I was feeding him once a day wet food Three Dog Bakery. He was on that for about a year and some nights wouldn't even want that. I tried to mix in his nuggets with the wet food, but he would just pick out the nuggets and put them on the ground. Well this is what he is doing again. The vet recommenced a low fat dry food and to try a different brand. I bought him Natural Balance Ultra Reduced Calorie. He suggested mixing in some boiled chicken. I did that, however once again Mickey would just eat the chicken and pick out the nuggets. He said to not feed him canned food right now until he loses weight as he is 15 pounds. I don't want him to starve and be miserable. He is already rebelling and crying a lot. I am finding myself crying because I feel bad for him and I don't know what to do. Please help! I am very over protective of my baby boy and I just want the best for him. I want him to be happy and right now he isn't
