    Well you seemed to have anwsered all the questions that one would ask in your posting ..... Xray could be a way to go but if he can keep fluids & wet food down that really rules out an obstruction but could hilight any other problems. Do you think he has lost that weight because of not being able to keep dry food down now,its surprising what weight that can pack on & we always advice clients with overweight cats to stop all dry food & just wet feed them anyway so that alone could count for weight loss. There is nothing wrong with feeding just wet food thats what mine are mostly fed on,at the moment I would try & find a cheap & cheerful mostly jelly tinned food & leave that down in small amounts around the house & just see if he will pick at it enough to fill himself up & feel more contented but would also be worth just speaking to your vet to see if "internal examination" as suggested by Antonia would be worth doing for peace of mind as much as anything else. You could also try him on some vitamin tablets which might make you feel better if you think he isn't going to get the goodness out of wet food that you would like....
    Hopefully someone will come on with more suggestions for you & please keep us updated,all fingers & paws crossed in this house that he will soon be a happier pusscat...x
