&lt;p&gt;Can you even partly mix in a weight loss diet? (RC Satiety, Hills metabolic, Hills R/D )&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;and as someone else suggested, have you calculated down to the basics etc.?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;you can always phone RC helpline, they are awesome in giving advise with amounts of kcal to feed ( so not even necessarily with their own food!) - they also do James Wellbeloved so could also give advise on those diets if dog likes JWB?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;good luck!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Baffled by unsuccessful obesity case</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/159469?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 27 Apr 2015 14:57:31 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:a9764509-fa32-4869-83e3-07fe282038e6</guid><dc:creator>funkyfish</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hydrotherapy treadmill- is fantastic for exercise! will steadily burn calories In a supporded environment.

I am&amp;nbsp;just wondering if you have done a calculation to work out the correct energy requirement that he requires? using basal figures. etc. followed then by working out how much Kcal each gram of food would provide&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
