No Weighting

On Feb. 26 I weighed 248 pounds.

Yesterday I weighed myself for the first time in five weeks—235.

I exercised slightly less than normal but changed my eating habits, cutting starches and carbs way down and upping my fat and protein. This has worked especially well for breakfast. Instead of eating a bowl of "healthy" cereal, then snacking all morning, I eat an egg or two, some sausage, a waffle and feel full well into afternoon.

With shoulder surgery coming up in May, I've been feeling the pressure to check my weight via diet since cardio will be off the table during recovery.

No celebrating with pizza, though.
