@Libra926

Ok...that makes more sense. I need to try that. Thanks a bunch!!

[NikkiSchoolcraft]

your stew looks alot like what I make. I use frozen green beans and add carrots though. My bullies LOVE it!!!!

[TessaAndSamson]

........ and I was thinking that kinda looks yummy .......... all my favorite ingredients!!!

I agree with you and desertsky!!! Vegas does look great but I always thought he did @Libra926 you shop at winco don't you? AKA the best grocery store EVER!!!

[Libra926]

@Libra926 you shop at winco don't you? AKA the best grocery store EVER!!!

Of course! I love being able to spend $100.00 on groceries and leave the store with more that just 2 bags! I love that they offer you paper bags instead of plastic. I love shopping there. it!

@Libra926 Linus is the same build as Vegas and needs to lose some weight but, even on two cups of food a day, he does not lose more than 4 or 5 pounds. Did you mix the kibble with the stew? Did you see any adverse effects from the stew (gas, allergies, etc) in addition to the weight loss? Thanks!

@jillh10
Yes, Vegas gets 1/2 cup kibble and 1 and 1/2 cups stew twice daily. Before the stew, he was getting 1 cup twice daily of kibble. (grandma was feeding him crappy treats also)
With the stew, Vegas does not have gas. He has never been gassy before...and we were told that simmering the stew for several hours will make the cabbage and tomatoes less gassy to the pups. As for allergies, I haven't noticed any difference.

I'm going to bump this thread..

BUMP

Ok...some of you said that you were going to try this out. If you did, let me know. If you did and had horrible reactions...like gas or refusal to eat, let me know. Dr Uhler was talking about me writing up a testimonial and I was just curious who else has stuck with this diet and who has or hasn't had results.
Currently, Vegas is a skinny and handsome 57.2 pounds.
He has been on this diet for about 4 months.

I haven't tried this yet, but we are having some difficulty with Daddy because he is just SO greedy!!!! He gulps all his food down and then tries to steal all the other dogs food. Every meal time is like a battle with me, hubby or one of the kids constantly screaming "no" at him!! He's on 1 3/4 cup of Fromm which I think is enough for him at his weight and age ( he's about 34lb and almost 6 months).

So I'm considering making the stew and giving that to him with his meals to maybe fill him up and also slow him down ...

Anybody got any thoughts about that, or any ideas about how to have more peaceful meal times????

[Libra926]

Actually...let me see if I can find the video of Orion.

Of course I found it...we have to block her into a corner. We are working on her "waiting" until Vegas leaves his feeding area..but sometimes she doesn't wait and she pushes him out of the way.

I've made it twice now, just for variety and a treat. I mix it in with the girls' dinner, not because they needed to loose weight, but because I thought they'd like it, and they did! Now, after my husband accidentally doubled their food for the last couple weeks, they may need the diet after all!

[cali~jenn]

Well I am bad so I cant give a great testimony aside from saying that my boys liked it more than crack. haha. I made it a couple times but then xmas came and I got busy so that was it. They begged for it tho and absolutely LOVED it. I need to get back to making it but they are such messy eaters, there wasnt a safe place to feed them it. Even outside ended up a big mess. lol.

[Libra926]

Yes..Vegas is messy also. Orion had to spend at least an hour cleaning up after him. I have to wipe down the walls and the floor after each meal.
