What are your opinions on this feeding regimine through the summer? "Not recommended"

For the record I'm accustomed to feeding weekly; '10's on pups until ready for small, 09's on mediums and 08's on large.
I feed my females, no matter the size, once every 14-21 days. I have 1 female that eats once a month.
