UPDATE: Thursday, 11:56 a.m. ET: The Dr. Oz Show confirmed to Mashable Trump does in fact weigh 236 pounds.
Donald Trump visited The Dr. Oz Show on Wednesday morning and while the episode won’t air until Thursday, audience reports have already started to circulate.
Trump declared he would share the results of a recent physical on Oz’s show after Hillary Clinton stumbled as she left a Sept. 11 memorial over the weekend. Her campaign later announced she had pneumonia.
Trump opened up about his previously documented love of fast food during the taping Wednesday, among other interesting admissions.
Per an audience member at Dr. Oz taping with Trump, he said he likes fast food because “at least you know what they are putting in it.”

As for Trump’s weight, there were conflicting reports. Politico noted audience members said he weighed 236 pounds while NBC and MSNBC revealed audience members said he weighed 267 pounds. Dr. Oz said Trump was “slightly overweight,” to which Trump replied he hoped to lose 15 to 20 pounds.

Trump’s height has been reported at 6’3″ and at 236 pounds, his BMI, per the CDC, would be 29.5, just at the upper reaches of the “overweight” range, close to “obese.” At 267 pounds, Trump’s weight would be a BMI of 33.4.
On Thursday, the Dr. Oz Show confirmed to Mashable Trump’s weight is actually 236 pounds.
Here’s how the conversation went down:
Dr. Oz: “You’re 63 236 pounds as I mentioned. Now in my mind Im thinking your body surface area and your BMI is high. Its probably close to 30 which is sort of the barrier for most people. Do your doctors or your family ever give you a hard time about your weight?”
Donald Trump: “Yeah I think I could lose a little weight. Ive always been a little bit this way. You know Ive sort of always been, I was probably a good swimmer. But Ive always been this way. I think that if I had one thing Id like to lose weight. Its tough because of the way I live. But the one thing I would like to do is be able to drop 15 20 pounds. It would be good.”
Overall, though, Oz assessed Trump as being healthy.
Per audience member I spoke to, Dr. Oz said Trump is very healthy & that he would be happy if any of his patients had similar results

As for exercise, well, it turns out all of those hand gestures are important! Speaking perhaps a bit tongue-in-cheek, Trump said that’s his exercise.
On exercise: Trump said his campaigning was his exercise. That him “moving his hands around when he was speaking” was a work out.

And, of course, there’s his relationship with daughter Ivanka, who made an appearance on the show. Of note, Trump confirmed how he loves to show his affection for his daughter.
MSNBC: “Dr. Oz said when Ivanka came on stage ‘It’s nice to see a dad kiss his daughter.’ Trump said he kisses her every chance he gets.”
