At some point you are going to have to change the way that you feed them. Free feeding dry food is often going to result in an obese cat. Some cats can self-regulate, but many cannot. Whether that change is needed now or 4 months from now, or 6 months from now, at some point you are going to have to do it. Your vet would probably be the best resource for helping you sort that out. But eventually what you are going to want to do is either cut out the dry food and go for only wet food, or carefully measure out the dry food such that each cat is eating one measured portion each meal, and no more. If your cat really is overweight now, then I would just go ahead and make the change now. That's my $0.02.
