Cat eating less and less as she has gotten older

My cat is now 1+ years old and has stopped eating as much as before. I know its suppose to slow down with age but she is also bigger now, so needs more calories (~220 based off calculators online).

She used to eat both breakfast and dinner mostly all at onces. slowly and slowly its turned into her not eating much when I first give her any. Then throughout the day she will graze.

Maybe she doesn't like her food anymore?

Should I remove her bowl after 30min? That way she learns "eat it all now, or you wont get any"

She now is getting about 3/4 cup a day of dry. and when that's done I give her some wet food. So its basically once a day, but doesn't fulfill her calorie needs. If she wasn't a slimmer cat, I wouldn't worry. Shes 9-10lb, but no where close to being fat
