No pips, that's exactly what we feed our mob. One in the morning, one at tea-time, with biscuit if requested. At 11 though, you should be feeding senior food - they do slow up and can put on weight (just like us....). If you read the box it says 4 sachets per day, that is just over the top, I would never feed that much. Make sure your cat has toys, we play with ours with bits of string and stuff, keeps them exercised (and our older cats are 12 and 13). Ours weigh about 5.5 kilos, but they are big rather than fat.
