Advice please - Piggy eating slowly and not fully

It took a full half hour with Annie on a blanket on my lap and lots of snacks, but eventually Annie produced 2 poos. It felt quite strange, to be honest, but he had his 'soup'. He is still a mystery, feeding / not feeding, but I just wondered how many times he should be given this soup? He has lost another 5g
 
I thought I should give an update on Wilf who was a poorly piggie 3 weeks ago. After 3 visits to Ellie in Matlock his teeth have been filed and his tongue has fully healed. It seems he has thyroid problems which is why, when he eventually did start being able to eat again, he was still losing weight. He went down to 980g a week ago, having been 1080g originally. He is now 1040g and loving his food although he must have thyroid medication for the rest of his life. I am so very relieved and he is now very spoilt . Piggies may be small but they can give us a whole load of worries at times!
