Lose weight with your pets

 

Lots of us – yours truly included – will make resolutions to lose weight this year. But what about our portly pets? Our chubby pals could probably stand to drop a few ounces – pounds even – this year. The University of Illinois suggests these five ways to help slim down your pet:

  1. Decrease calories.
  2. Exercise!
  3. Feed specific portions – no free-for-alls.
  4. Skip snacks and people food.
  5. Feed small portions more often.

What does this all sounds like? People! We could all use these tips, too. Well, we probably need to go ahead and stick with eating people food, but other than that, it sounds like good advice for us.
