    LeBron James Cut Carbs From His Diet, Has Lost 'Significant' Weight This Summer
    http://finance.yahoo.com/news/lebron-james-stopped-eating-carbs-141345507.html

    LeBron James posted a photo in which he looks skinnier than usual on Instagram on Monday.

    One poorly lit photo is not exactly firm evidence that an athlete has or hasn't lost weight. But there seems to be something to this.

    Brian Windhorst of ESPN said on Twitter that LeBron has lost "significant weight" since he reduced his carbohydrate intake earlier this summer. Windhorst has been covering LeBron since high school, and he probably has more access to the Cavs star than any other reporter in the world.

    LeBron was listed at 250 pounds last season. He confirmed that he's on diet in a different Instagram photo.

    Here's skinny LeBron (August 4):

    LeBron is eying longevity, like Kobe.

    but I don't know if he is skilled enough to maintain his elite play w/o one of his main attributes, which is strength.

    I do think he had lost some of his quickness over the past few years but he was much more powerful. I'm not sure what to really make of this.

    He knows Love is coming and the team still has Thompson, so he won't be spending as much time at the 4. More quickness needed for the perimiter. That's my take.

    Whatever weight Lebron lost, Windhorst must've found. He is a big man.

    Smart move by LeBron, but a bit early... his body shows absolutely no signs of breaking down by the hell is he taking measures like this so early?

    Most people make the mistake of waiting until the damage is already done. I'm a dietitian, and I would always encourage people to take preventative measures before things become a problem. With Lebron approaching 30, this is a good time for him to be watching what he eats.
