Meet Nacho, he's 13 years old and had been overweight most of his adult life.

As a kitten, Nacho was a scrawny fella.

Through laziness and overeating, Nacho grew to an obese 18 pound adult cat

He was sooo uncomfortable

Ready for a change, he started restricting his calories, he did not like this

he also got plenty of water and rest

After countless weight-ins

Nacho, is now a svelte 15.5 pounds.

If he can do it, anyone can. I hope his story can motivate at least one person to improve their health.

    Awesome!! That's the kind of story that's needed around here. Very inspiring!
  • Haha, my cat just lost weight too!

    Fuzzy was the runt of the liter, and grew to a HUGE 23 pounds. He was in the beginning of kidney failure.

    Now, with diet and exercise, he weighs a wonderful 15.5 pounds. The vets are happy, and he can move around more and chase the dog around even!

    Nacho was highly offended that you would think that.

    I feel that I should also share the story of Gir.

    She went from this

    to this.

    Still a better cuddler than my boyfriend.
