Those are quite filling for the stomach and low on calories. He lost around a pound and has a stable weight since. So now he gets around 50 grams of kibble which is around 200 kcal + treats. To me it seems like very little amount of food, but his weight is stable and that is a good indicator that he gets the necessary calories as I understand. Good luck with the weight loss journey for Tallulah! Happy that she's got a loving family now <3 |
thank you for the detailed plan! Is Mike fed his 50 grams once a day, or does he get 2 meals consisting of 50 grams each? Tallulah loves green beans, broccoli, and carrots, thank heavens!
