Nah. I'm not in to Tony to lose weight. I like him because for me he is a magnetic personality. Tai Cheng and either P90x2 or Insanity is how I'm going to lose weight. And eating right and at the right time as you suggest. And because Zooey wants me to.

Robbins talks about some very interesting things - things we learned about in Psychology in HS and college, but in a way that matters.

Think of it like this: Math was always challenging to me. I didn't give a damn when the two trains were going to collide. So, I skated by and passed, but I didn't use math the way people should use it to make their lives easier.

Later in life I started a course in Industrial Electronics. There, as you may guess, you use math to (a) make things work and (b) keep from getting killed. It wasn't arbitrary, and so I learned math like I hadn't before.

That's how I see Robbins. The stuff he preaches involves a way to USE all that crap they were telling us about in Psychology. He's making tons of money, but that doesn't invalidate his message. That's just my take.
