    Off topic but still important... jojo19812018 your cat is a little sweetie. Just remember like you, the cat needs healthy food. Make sure you only use dry food (kibble) as a supplement and feed mostly canned or raw if the cat will tolerate it. Their health is just as important as ours. This Veterinarian is one of many who encourage cat owners to stay away from dry food, preferably at all costs. The feeding of these obligate carnivores is exceptionally important if we want them to live long, healthy lives and only need to go to the vet for annual check ups after age 5. Dry food is inappropriate for cats except as a treat...

    I've had several cats who lived to over age 20 on dry food. I do believe the quality of the food is important, but not the moisture content.

    Hey hello! I’m also a very active nurse and I’m 5’2”. I lost on 1200 but got super hungry. Now I eat 14-1700 depending on workouts and work days. I am losing about a pound a week or more, with little hunger and really enjoyable meals snacks and desserts. The work activity really adds up! I was shocked when I got a Fitbit I saw I was burning over 2200 calories but really it’s no surprise considering 13 hours of nonstop physical labor. Best wishes on your journey!
