Following the Season 1 premiere of My Unorthodox Life, Robert got serious about his health and lost a total of 30 pounds as a result. He shared his “two-pronged” approach to getting fit with PEOPLE.

According to Robert, he loves a midnight snack as much as any of us. But to reach his body goals, he had to cut the cheese.

“The way I did it was really focused on eating because nobody loves a block of cheese more than I do,” Robert continued. “And then the other thing is I really got serious about tennis.”

“I've been playing a lot, particularly over the summer and through the spring. And that has just been such a fun way to exercise.”
