My cat weight is 14 lbs. I give her The AMT of food for a 10 lb. Cat and split in half morning and night I hope this works. Is this the correct amount ?
- Yes, 1/2 morning and evening. If she is too hungry, give her a little more at each feeding. You don't want to cut her to short right away, it works better if you reduce the amount of food over a week or two so she gets used to getting less.

Are they only supposed to be fed this once based on their serving per the bag?
- The amount listed is a daily amount. I split it in half and give mine 1/2 in the morning and the other half at between 3 and 4 PM. You start with the weight reduction serving amount, and then when they achieve their ideal weight you feed them the maintenance amount. I have 5 cats and 3 eat this and love it and have lost weight on it. You have to preserve and not give more food, or it won't work. My guys even get 5 Temptation Treats a day and do fine. But no more, and no table food either. It feels good to see the weight come off and how much more playful they are. I won't feed them anything else now. This is their food for life. Good luck!!
