This is, kind of, OT, but how is Rush doing with his weight? Is he showing great improvements, physically?

Actually it's not OT :-)

From his EIB videos (here's a sample) he's down from his highest weight, but certainly is still obese. He did the Weight Loss Center route in 2009 -- including appetite suppressants and a specialized diet. The problem is, that's not learning how to eat for the long term with real food. Any time you decide to go back to eating real food after a diet like that, the weight goes right back on.

To lose weight long term, you need to find a way to eat that you can do for the rest of your life. Otherwise you're just kidding yourself.

Actually it IS OT because Rush is not, will never be, nor is he trying to be in a powerful position to dictate, mandate or influence what is or is not healthy or is or is not proper eating habits.

I think Rush lost the weight because he wanted to look good for his wedding to Kathryn. I’m sure she pressured him to lose the weight for the wedding. He has gained a lot of it back, as you can see in his golf photos that he’s posted lately and he really doesn’t talk about it that much, if at all, on his radio show. At least when I’m listening I don’t hear it.

He says he hates to exercise, but Kathryn should force him for the sake of his health. Considering his wealth he could install the best private gym and hire the best trainer. I’m sure he has nice swimming pool and a beautiful beach out his back door. He could hire a health-conscious chef that could prepare him healthy meals. Anyone with his means should be a lot healthier.
