You could just cut back a little of each meal, substitute veggies or a low calorie snack and increase the exercise just a bit.

You can get dry commercial food for helpuing weight loss, but really cutting back is probably the best way. Sad

Could you add in an extra one or two a few times a week? Getting them to lose weight takes a good bit of time
