Catkins
In the last entry I mentioned "cooking for my cat." I may be neglecting Lunamania and the human dietary needs in this house, but my cat is living large--literally. I have been known to (proudly) report that Tamu's last visit to the vet had him weighing in at 18 lbs.
The vet was not alarmed, but told me that if cut back on dry food (lots of bad filler) and fed him a high proteing wet food, he would lose some weight. It's a Catkins diet! I took it one step further and eliminated the dry food entirely and started feeding him cooked celery infused with anchovies. I top this with about half a serving of Trader Joe's Cat Tuna (29 cents a can peoples.) ok, this is TMI and illustrates obsessive Cat Lady behavior. But just a last thought...I suppose the celery would not be allowed in a true Catkins diet--but isn't there some urban myth about celery being a negative calorie food? I get it cuz it's 99 cents for a week worth of celery.
Anyhoots, The Big Grey One has lost some weight, or at least as one friend noted, "he looks flatter." Here are some before and after shots--notice his now has a WAIST.
Go figure...I just spent the last however many minutes announcing to all of cyberspace that I have no life...but my cat has a waist!
