In reply to the discussion: White House Releases Results of Trump's Latest Physical Exam [View all]karynnj
(61,141 posts)44. The doctor recommended "CONTINUED weight loss" when he had gained 14 pounds!
this in addition to saying he got.diet advice and was told to increase exercise. Even the LOW aspirin advice was because he takes a HIGH dose against medical advice. Even as written, this is not a positive report card. The weight gain even by this report puts him at the threshold of clinical obesity which of course means he is pretty overweight.
Also, playing with the CDC's BMI calculator, to be 238 pounds and on the verge of obesity, he needs to be 6 foot 3 inches. Even if he ever was, he isn't now given many pictures of him standing next to people whose heights are known.

With his height and girth, he's over 300 lbs. Lie on something so observably false, they'll lie/falsify anything.

My guess is that, at a minimum, he's 289 (in that case, he demanded 50 lbs off).
