Hm. Are there a lot of dogs for whom the "feed them less" method doesn't
work?
I say this as the owner of a slightly pudgy dog, but here's my technique
for solving the problem:
old feeding method: fill scoop to "75" line at each feeding, dump in
bowl.
new feeding method: fill scoop to "50" line at each feeding, dump in
bowl.
Come to think of it, I think if I could adapt my dog's dieting method
for masters fatties, I really might be onto something.

Are you sure your dog dieting technique doesn't also include putting a peanut
butter jar on her head?

Are you suggesting that people can lose weight by just eating less or
exercising more? Without consulting physicians, reading diet books published
by Rodale, taking drugs?
You are one sick puppy.

Oh right, I mentioned that, didn't I? Well, that was part of the old
technique. And last time I emptied one of those peanut butter jars, the
missus forbade me from repeating the trick.

Do you think the fact that I routinely go through 2kg jars of peanut
butter might be part of my diet problem?

If "routinely" means "in a week," then yes. (Says the guy who has a pb&j for
breakfast almost every day.)

Assuming three servings per day on the old regime, your average masters
fattie is going to assume that since they are getting 1/3 less per serving
they can get 2 extra servings per day and still lose weight since they are
still down by 1/3.
Nobody ever said masters fatties were good with arithmetic.

In college, I had a friend who ate this almost every day. Not on bread --
on a spoon. He bought jars of that pre-mixed PB&J stuff.
A not-uncommon French misconception is that there is butter in peanut
butter.

I saw a Mr. Rogers episode where Fred made peanut butter by crushing
peanuts with a wooden spoon and mixing the pieces with butter. Maybe that
is where the French got the idea.

Were you trying to gain weight? Or save money on food?
I have a PB&J for breakfast a couple times a week currently. Or
really PB and fruit preserves or fruit butter (apple butter, prune
butter).

Now that's just sick. Everyone knows that were it properly named, it
wouldn't be "peanut butter," it would be "peanut lard."

Everyone knows that a mixture of butter, peanut butter, and honey is the
only thing that will cut through the film on your teeth and tongue the
morning after doing shooters of cheap tequila the night before.
