I'll try making hubby start helping with the feedings (sometimes, his memory is somewhat sieve-like). Each of us feeding a small section would probably work really well, as we work mostly opposite shifts right now and can split it up pretty evenly.
I tried giving him a little frozen bit for breakfast today... he looked at me like I was crazy and walked away.
So much for that idea! Maybe the more used to it he gets the less he'll throw it up. I've been looking at him pretty closely after reading the link on dry food and obesity and have decided he could probably loose a few pounds anyway...
Thanks for the all the suggestions!
