Being overweight can cause health problems, if not now in the future.  
What I do with pigs that are overweight but still like to eat is  
measure out their pellets but I give them unlimited hay so that there  
is always something to nibble on. Pellets are concentrated nutrients  
and are fattening. There are other foods like lettuce and hay that  
pigs enjoy but shouldn't add to their weight.
