My formerly skinny super skinny calico cat also got fat after eating
both Iams and Science Diet food.  She doesn't seem to eat much less -
I think the food TASTES GOOD, but her health seems better and she's
more relaxed. Before, she spent all of her energy begging for human
food - now she seems content with what she has.  By the way, neither
of these two brands made any difference in the weight of my other two
cats, so I think that diet is as individual in it's affect on animals
as it is on humans.  Frankly, I prefer my cat fat as compared to 
scrawny, but I wish I could find a happy medium.
