...he 6-foot-3 president tips the scales at 244 pounds, up from 243 pounds in 2019 and 239 pounds the year before.
With a BMI of 30.5, that still puts him in the clinically obese category.
Trump, who has a common form of heart disease, was warned by his previous physician Dr. Ronny Jackson in 2018 that he needed to do more exercise and improve his diet — with a nutritionist brought into the White House to advise chefs on cutting the commander-in-chief’s calories.
Several examinations at the Walter Reed military hospital between November 2019 and April 2020 also found Trump’s blood pressure was 121/79 — up from 118/80 last year and 116/70 the year before...

Seriously, I wish all obese people looked as good as he does.
Is is that unusual for men who are over 6ft. to also be over 200 pounds?
I wouldn't know personally being far from both.
Not enough info here to even guess as to his health.
What’s his BP? HDL and LDL? Family history?
Pelosi said he was “morbidly obese,” which is BMI of 35 - 40, depending on other health conditions. He is 30.5.
She said “morbidly “ obese. They say clinically. Just like Pelosi to blow everything out of proportion, like budgets.
Cancel that query on his BP. I re-read the excerpt. His blood pressure is fine.
Very good.
“””also found Trump’s blood pressure was 121/79 — up from 118/80 last year and 116/70 the year before.””””””””””
Better than my Covid-19 pound gain...and I am much younger than Trump!
They gave his blood pressure. I would assume if he had high cholesterol they would be treating it and they aren't.
121/79 BP looks good. Amazing when you think about the pressure he is under. Wonder what Joe’s is
Yet another New York publication, wishing for our President to die in office so they can dance on his grave. :(
*SPIT*
What is his Montreal Cognitive score?
Obese is 10 lbs overweight.
A women’s size 12 dress used to be normal but anything over a 2 is considered overweight today.
“Wonder what Joe’s (BP) is.”
I’m pretty sure you need a pulse of some kind for a BP reading, LOL! *SNORT*
Except for that statin.
That’s 1960’s measurements. They use the high tech BMI now.
Needs more time at the golf course to keep the extra pound off. Worked for Obama.
Most people his age are on a statin of some dosage.
If they can’t get him any other way, they’ll get him with “healthy” eating.
I can hardly get mine that low using three different blood pressure medications twice a day.
