I agree that swimming is excellent. You can buy a life jacket to make him feel more secure. You are kind of stuck because he needs to lose that weight to be better on his joints, but you also don't want to stress the joints out TOO much, in the process.
But in general, for weight loss, definitely feed less. Find a food maybe not so high in calories. I've heard of lots having success on Wellness Core Reduced Fat.
You can buy those pools 3-4 feet deep with a mini filter on it, if you have the space. I saw one at Walgreens for $35. |
